Upcoming events/updates [September]

update 28/08/2017

September events

On August 25, Konami provided duelists with information on upcoming events that are scheduled from early September till mid October.

New Event: Duelist Chronicles: Set sail for the Kingdom [Early September]

A new type of unlock event that is said to be based off the original series. Based on the name this might refer to the Duelist Kingdom arc from the anime and manga. Additionally, we will be seeing a new type of duel and be able to unlock a new playable character, speculated to be Yugi Muto.

Let the Mayhem Begin [Mid-September]

Based on the manner of speech written on the text, the new event is most likely a variation of Rex Raptor, similar to how Super Joey was to Joey Wheeler and Elegant Mai was to Mai Valentine. Based on this, he will most likely be a roaming LD with drops different from the usual Rex Raptor.

New Upcoming Event [Late September]

A new type of event, that has never been released before, seems to be planned for late September.

Speculations:

  • The text reads a "mysterious tower", combined with the fact that this event will most likely precede a Halloween themed event, this event will likely be related to Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower.
  • "Face them with new strategies and techniques" might refer to a new type of dueling or challenges not yet seen in duel links.

Massive Update Incoming! [Late September]

An update planned early on in October, will be adding many new features to the world of Duel Links including:

  • Addition of a new world.
  • Addition of a new character
  • Addition of new missions.
  • Special Login bonus.

Speculations:

  • "Addition of a new world" might refer to the addition of YuGiOh GX, based on the recently datamined image.
  • Since "Addition of new characters" is planned just before October, this might refer to a Halloween themed character, Bonz maybe?
  • "Addiition of new missions" is quite vague, it may refer to a new type of mission that is yet to be seen. Or maybe new stage missions that will increase the stage cap. Worst case, it might only be referring to extensions on the lifetime missions(e.g. Login for a total of 1000 days).
  • "Special Login bonus" is very self explanatory. You login, you get free stuff. Although would this be permanent or a temporary event, similar to card flipper events.

October events

Event: "Duel-a-thon" [Early October]

Duel-A-Thon will be held again in Early October. During the event period, you will earn points every duel, to fill your "Duel Meter". Gather points every day and get daily rewards, accumulate those points over the course of the event to get even bigger prizes.

A new character coming to Duel Links! [Mid-October]

Mid-October would be releasing a character "fit for this time of the year", if we are going with characters from the original series only, this almost 100% confirms Bonz as the new unlockable duelist. Adding to this, the dialogue written saying "Dueling me will give you a spook that will put you in your grave", further solidifies the speculation Bonz will be released.

the entire gx crew is super annoying

And now, your favorite GameA chat show, "Anonyboy interprets the news."

GameA has done pretty good with this one.
We already knew about the kingdom, and how it's very likely Yugi Moto.

I also agree with their assessment that Rex Raptor is the rampaging duelist, which is nice, since while dinosaurs were meta months ago, they've fallen out of relevance since.

I'm just going to take their word for the next one about the tower. The only problem I see is that it takes place in September, and they already have stuff planned for spookiness in October.

The "Massive Update" is the one which is the most open to interpret, and people see what they want to see. The GX fans imagine it will be GX, but I personally don't think that makes much sense, for a reason I'll explain later. In all honesty, I don't have a clue what this whole update means. It could mean making the Big Five and Noah Kaiba unlockable, for all we know. Probably not them, but I'm just using them as an example.

Ignoring the self-explanatory Duel-a-thon, I once again agree with GameA. That's Bonz, for sure. The fact that Bonz is getting added is where my argument against GX comes in. I see no reason to add a character exclusively from Duel Monsters after GX has been added. I mean, sure Duel Monsters and GX take place within only a few years of each other, but it just wouldn't feel right for me. Also I liked Duel Monsters more than GX, so there's my bias as well.

Many people whine over GX and other series being added so it makes since, if they were going to add them, to still keep some series 1 characters to add after that so we don't feel like we will never see a series 1 event again. I assumed GX would be Jan earlist but it does seem like GX coukd be in Sept and I disagree with people saying no based only on us not having every series 1 character added.

I know that... but GX is an entirely different series, years after the Original. Duel Monsters takes place over a period of 4 years, if I'm not mistaken. It's kind of a big leap to move forward in time from then to GX, and that's not even to mention the wealth of characters from Duel Monsters not yet added.

Your argument doesn't make any sense. how do they doing massive update just for noah unlock event. and it says ''characters'' that means they will release a bunch of character

"Massive" could mean practically anything. It could be Noah, it could be GX, it could be something else. No one here knows for sure. I use those because I view them as the two most-likely scenarios.

Plz refer to him as rampaging rex, not super rex! It would be the obvious choice of name. Also, I believe the Halloween event may be unlockable arkana(Pandora) if not bonzie

Arkana does fit the trick or treat bit.

So Rampaging Rex is gonna be a roaming event like Super Joey and Elegant Mai? Good luck for another set of rants about drop rates.

Which one, on the next event (will be released today, I guess) or late September?

Releasing DM characters after the release of GX characters is still a possibility.
InuGhost
Personally I hope that the new world and new way to duel is referring to the Digital World from Season 3. I've seen Deep Sea Warrior in Mako's rewards and I would love to take down the Big 5 and Noah Kaiba.

It's a possibility, but who knows? The new world event is about as vague as it gets.

Look: They already released Contact Fusion (the xyz machine monsters) and LV Monsters (on the new mini-box). So, a new world, with new characters, means just one thing: GX!

Of course, my friend ^^

That's stupid logic. XYZ Dragon Cannon isn't "Contact Fusion", and existed prior to GX. LVL monsters were anime-exclusive monsters before GX, with the Silent Swordsman and Magician being the only 2.
