Yu-Gi-Oh ONLINE Accelerates!
Konami revamps its popular Yu-Gi-Oh! ONLINE service for March                                                                                                                                         

El Segundo, CA – (February 2, 2010) – Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc, (KDE) is pleased to announce a massive product upgrade for its ever-popular Yu-Gi-Oh!™ ONLINE game, with the advent of Yu-Gi-Oh! ONLINE DUEL ACCELERATOR which will be released for the PC in March 2010. 

As KDE’s Yu-Gi-Oh! ONLINE enters its fifth year, the publisher added a wealth of new elements, cards and systems for online Duelists. Yu-Gi-Oh! ONLINE DUEL ACCELERATOR provides exciting Duels with the latest characters from the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s TV series, and will also feature old favorites such as Yugi, Kaiba, Jaden and Princeton.  

Players are invited to create 3D avatars for use in the game, and KDE has enhanced the basic mechanics of online Dueling, too. The most Duelist-friendly change is that Duels will now be played at no cost. Players can buy BOOSTERPASS points to add new cards to their Decks, and these can be acquired by credit card or PayPal. In this new version of Yu-Gi-Oh! ONLINE, players will not only be able to trade cards with other players but also lend cards to their friends and Dueling team members. 

Konami has opened free Beta trials of Yu-Gi-Oh! ONLINE DUEL ACCELERATOR now, which will continue until the end of February. It can be found at www.yugioh-online.net, and will run alongside the existing Yu-Gi-Oh! ONLINE DUEL EVOLUTION service, which will come to an end when Yu-Gi-Oh! ONLINE DUEL ACCELERATOR launches in March.
