Konami Deals Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tag Force to Retail
Stores Nationwide

Leading Trading Card Game Makes Debut on PSP
System with Unique Tag Team Gameplay, Wireless Multiplayer Functionality and
Massive Selection of Cards to Collect

Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc., today
announced that Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tag Force for the PSP system has shipped to retail
stores throughout North America. The first entry in the acclaimed Yu-Gi-Oh!
franchise for the PSP system, the game engages players in a new Duel Academy
storyline and features an original tag team dueling mechanic that lets gamers
team up with allies for an intense and strategic card-based experience.

Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tag Force immerses players in the
Duel Academy, an elite school for young duelists, as they join the Slifer Red
dormitory and go head to head with other students from the opposing Ra Yellow
and Obelisk Blue student associations. The school is holding a new type of
dueling contest this year, letting students team up in groups of two and compete
together.

Breaking new ground in the Yu-Gi-Oh! series, Yu-Gi-Oh!
GX Tag Force features an original tag team battle system in which players can
team up with a computer controlled teammate and take on two other duelists. Each
teammate utilizes a different deck, allowing for countless new strategic
opportunities as players bring each character into the dueling fray. The game
also features a larger selection of cards than any previous Yu-Gi-Oh! video
game, providing players with more choices in building their decks and new custom
animations for each card as they are brought into play.

Building upon the competitive foundations of the
Yu-Gi-Oh! series, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tag Force features ad-hoc wireless multiplayer
functionality for two duelists. Players can select two unique characters and
decks to use in each battle, setting the stage for intense head to head
standoffs.

Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tag Force is rated “E” for
everyone by the ESRB and carries a suggested retail price of $29.99. For more
