Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel was only just released earlier this month, but its popularity has grown quite quickly. It’s already reached 240,000 concurrent players on Steam and become the most popular card game on the storefront. In fact, it’s now passed 4 million downloads across all platforms.

The news was shared by the game’s European Twitter account, thanking all current duelists for giving the game a go. Master Duel is a free-to-play game, so downloading just to give it a try doesn’t take much effort on the player’s part. Still, 4 million installs is nothing to sneeze at. Getting 50 free card packs through PlayStation Plus is a great incentive too.

4 million downloads and counting!! Thank you for playing Yu-Gi-Oh! MASTER DUEL 😊
We've commenced the roll out of the game on iOS and Android in select countries – more countries to follow very soon!
