Yu-Gi-Oh! NATIONAL CHAMPIONS FROM ALL CORNERS OF THE GLOBE
GATHER IN LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA FOR KONAMI DIGITAL
ENTERTAINMENT’S
Global Champions will Duel in the Weekend-long
Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME and Video Game Extravaganza
EL SEGUNDO, CA. – (August 3, 2010) –
The world’s best and brightest Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME
(TCG) and Video Game players are coming to Long Beach, CA to
battle for Konami Digital Entertainment’s (KDE) top Yu-Gi-Oh!
honors of the year. After 12 months of
tournaments and hundreds of Qualifying events across the
globe, the greatest players will bring their best Yu-Gi-Oh!
Decks and skills to Long Beach in hopes of being crowned
2010 World Champion.
The Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG World Championship will include the top
players from the United States, Canada, Central and South
America, Asia, Oceania and Europe to compete for the coveted
title of Champion. Due to its collectability and
strong game play, the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG has become the world’s
number one selling trading card game of all time*
with more than 22 BILLION cards sold and enjoyed by millions
of players on every inhabited continent.
The final quest to reign supreme begins on August 14 as the
World Championship unfolds over the course of the weekend.
KDE is also offering public events open to everyone - for
those not participating in the World Championship.
Attendees can participate in various events like Regional
Qualifiers, King of the Hill events, and (for Duelists age
12 & under) Dragon Duels. There will also be activities for
Yu-Gi-Oh! fans looking for something more casual than a
tournament setting. Special World Championship 2010 packs
will also be given away to select participants.
The Yu-Gi-Oh! Video Game World Championship will also be
held pitting world-class Duelists from around the globe on
the center stage. Competitors have battled for months,
to make it to the World Championship event with a single
goal, to be crowned the Yu-Gi-Oh! World Champion.
Competitions leading up to the finale have been played using
Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s World Championship 2010: Reverse of
Arcadia, allowing Duelists to completely craft a
customized Deck worthy of making it to the World
Championships.
Attendees can also pose for pictures with the Duel Runner,
Stardust Dragon, or get their own personalized token card
created. The Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s DUEL TERMINAL arcade-style
machines and the latest upcoming Yu-Gi-Oh! video game titles
will also be present. And there will be a place for parents
and chaperones to rest in the Parent’s Lounge while their
young Duelists are showing off their skills.
Additionally, there will be three anime rooms showing videos
from each of the three Yu-Gi-Oh! animated series, and a
Sneak Preview of the upcoming Yu-Gi-Oh! 3D movie! In
addition, Greg Abbey, the voice actor for Yusei, from the
wildly popular animated series Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s will be in
attendance all weekend.
