The anticipated Yu-Gi-Oh TCG core set Phantom Nightmare finally released today. The new collection adds over 100 cards to the long-running TCG and introduces the all-new “Ashen” card archetype. If that sounds suspiciously like another dark fantasy franchise, you’re right. Fans have also spotted numerous homages to From Software’s brutal action-RPGs Demon’s Souls, Dark Souls, and Elden Ring in the art and lore of these new cards. There’s even a mechanic that lets you move Ashen cards from your deck to your hand using the Bonfire spell card. Get it?
