The teaser also introduced several characters and Digimon, hinting at a possible story element, which would set Digimon Alysion apart from the more gameplay-focused Pokémon TCG Pocket. Although no specific release date has been announced, Gematsu has reported that a closed beta test is in the works, with more details to follow.
With Pokémon TCG Pocket setting a high bar in the mobile card game arena, Digimon Alysion aims to capture the hearts of Digimon enthusiasts and card game lovers alike. On the Pokémon side, developers have acknowledged the need for improvements to the trading system in Pokémon TCG Pocket, though these changes are expected to take some time to implement.
Digimon Alysion appears poised to expand the reach of the Digimon Card Game to a broader audience. As the Poké-Digi rivalry potentially heats up once more, fans of monster-themed card collecting will soon have another exciting option to explore. Stay tuned for more updates as Digimon Alysion progresses toward its eventual launch.
