Digimon Launches New Card Game to Rival Pokémon TCG Pocket

Author : Allison May 29,2025

The world of digital monster collectibles is set to expand with the announcement of Digimon Alysion, a highly anticipated mobile card battler from Bandai Namco. Following the immense success of Pokémon TCG Pocket, this new game aims to capture the hearts of both casual players and dedicated Digimon enthusiasts alike. Set to launch on iOS and Android platforms, Digimon Alysion promises to bring the beloved mechanics of Digivolution into the digital realm.

Currently, details remain slim, but the recent reveal during Digimon Con has sparked excitement among fans. A teaser trailer and glimpses of pack openings, alongside charming pixel art depictions of various Digimon, hint at the game's potential. The project’s Twitter announcement, shared by the official Digimon Card Game English Version account, has further fueled anticipation.

One notable aspect teased in the trailer is the inclusion of a possible storyline. Unlike the narrative-light Pokémon TCG Pocket, Digimon Alysion seems poised to weave a deeper narrative thread, introducing named characters and their associated Digimon. While specifics are still under wraps, this storytelling element could set it apart from its Pokémon counterpart.

A closed beta test is reportedly in the works, with additional updates expected soon. Meanwhile, on the Pokémon front, developers are working to address issues within the trading system of Pokémon TCG Pocket. Although changes are in progress, they may take some time to roll out.

As the gaming community eagerly awaits more information, Digimon Alysion presents an exciting opportunity for fans of monster-collecting card games. Whether you're a long-time Digimon supporter or simply looking for fresh content, this title could reignite the spirit of competition between the Poké-Digi rivals. Stay tuned as Digimon Alysion progresses toward its official release.
