“Yu-Gi-Oh! Online” Full-Scale Service to Start Simultaneously in Japan, US and Europe
 
Konami Corporation (hereafter referred to as Konami) announced today that it will start full-scale service for its new “Yu-Gi-Oh! Online” game simultaneously in Japan, US, and Europe on April 11, 2005 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Standard Time (PST). The new game faithfully reproduces Konami’s “Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game” over the Internet.
 
In order to allow a wide range of customers to engage in online battles, Konami will introduce a pay system using the new “DUELPASS,” which will be sold worldwide. “DUELPASS” is a pay system Konami has developed exclusively for its “Yu-Gi-Oh! Online” game.
 
“Yu-Gi-Oh! Online” authentically reproduces the trading card game - based off of the comic “Yu-Gi-Oh!” (originally written by Kazuki Takahashi), which was first published in the weekly magazine Shonen Jump in 1996.
　
“Yu-Gi-Oh! Online” augments the current line of “Yu-Gi-Oh!” video games and trading card games available to consumers.  With “Yu-Gi-Oh! Online,” Konami now makes it possible to play, duel and interact with players around the world effortlessly via the Internet.
