Evaluation

Yu-Gi-Oh! EARLY DAYS COLLECTION launched on February 27, 2025 as a curated package of 14 classic Yu-Gi-Oh! titles. From the outset, the store description stated that "select titles will also be updated to support online play after release," signaling that the collection was not fully feature-complete at launch. True to that promise, the developers have shipped two free updates adding online multiplayer to additional games in the collection: on June 2, 2025, patch 1.2.0 added online play to Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004, and on August 4, 2025, another update brought online play to Yu-Gi-Oh! Dungeon Dice Monsters, bringing the total to three titles with online support. The store description still references this ongoing online rollout, suggesting more titles may be in line for the feature. The developer has not announced which — or how many — additional titles are slated to receive online play, nor have they stated that the rollout is complete. The last developer communication was on August 4, 2025, and updates have been arriving roughly every two months since launch.
