- The game features a navigable map, of fair size, where players search for duelists with the stylus.
- Players can purchase expansion packs of cards to improve their decks with "KC" (presumably earned, as in the last Game Boy Advance game, from winning duels).
- The promotional cards released with this game are Silent Magician LV4, Silent Magician LV8, and Magician's Circle. These are confirmed as the Japanese and North America promos, other territories have yet to be confirmed.
- The touch screen is used intensively for both deck creation and dueling.

Top Screen
The top screen will feature a 3-D board game view of the duel. When a monster attacks, one can watch it use its individual attack to destroy the target monster.

Gameplay
Seto Kaiba is hosting a tournament again! Once again, there is an evil plot lurking behind an otherwise grand contest. As the player, you have to battle for the title of grand champion, capture all the god cards, and defeat evil with the help of Yugi, Joey, and friends.
Overall gameplay can be pretty repetitive with infrequent twists.
