Hello Duelists, i wanted to talk a bit about the future for Kingdom Duels. Personally, i’ve been moving quickly in 2025 and thus we saw a lot of new cards, more than ever before actually. We have specially picked up the pace a lot with the last few sets, and the current goal is to aim for a new set roughly every two months, hopefully.
Therefore, i wanted to make a tentative roadmap (subject to change) for the next year. It is a bit optimistic, as it reduces the time between sets even further than two months (not sure if its gonna be possible). But is honestly what i would like to aim for next year:
Q4 2025:
Set #6: Battle City part 2.- Set #7: Wicked Arc, part 1 (adaptation of Yugioh R).
Q1 2026:
- Set #8: Wicked Arc, part 2 (adaptation of Waking the Dragons).
- Story Release: Millennium Chapter fifth arc.
- Set #9: Final Arc, part 1.
Q2 2026:
- Set #10: Final Arc, part 2.
- Story Release: King’s Chapter first arc.
- Set #11: King’s Chapter, First Arc, part 1.
- Set #12: King’s Chapter, First Arc, part 2.
Q3 2026:
- Hiatus.
Q4 2026:
- (to be defined)
This means a couple of things. First of all, the first “Expansion Set” doesn’t have a release date and will be put on hold for the foreseeable future. I want to focus more on the story sets, and given that the Expansion Set didn’t gain a lot of traction i would like to revisit that concept again in the future with fresh ideas.
Also, i’ll try to push hard until we get to set #12 because after that i will be taking a hiatus from new card releases entirely. The original idea had me going with each series in order (Millennium → King → Academy…) but that idea has changed and we will be releasing sets in a different pattern, more intertwined. But to do so, i will need to plan out every single storyline so it all make sense. Therefore, i need to focus on them for a while so i’ll be stopping with the scheduled set releases at that point.
This is all subject to change, but is an optimistic view of next year.
