Who would have thought that at the beginning of 2022, after a complicated issue with eFootball which was widely criticized, Konami’s name was again glimpsed by many cross-platform gamers. The reason? Of course the release of the game Yu-Gi-Oh! Latest – Master Duel which is also distributed as a free to play game. As can be predicted, the monetization process does rely on the act of buying card packages which you can later inject to strengthen your flagship deck. With gacha resources that can also be obtained by simply playing, this combination of qualities makes Master Duel super popular!
How popular? Enough to make it into the top 5 concurrent players on Steam, which of course is not something that is easy to achieve. Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel had recorded a total of 219,368 users and recorded them in fourth position. He beat names like Apex Legends, GTA V, Rust, to NARAKA: Bladepoint. What’s more interesting? Data from SteamDB also shows hundreds of thousands of active players playing every hour.
Konami itself has not spoken about how many total gamers Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Master worldwide considering he is also available on the console version. How about you? How many of you are busy playing this game?
