Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tag Force 2 brings the Yu-Gi-Oh! phenomenon back to the PSP with new features that are sure to please the fans – they were the ones that suggested them! The biggest new addition to this game, again based on the hugely popular GX TV series is the ability to compete in four player Tag Duels.

Plus, for the first time on a handheld YGO title, the cards can now be viewed at actual full size thanks to the improved widescreen capabilities of the PSP.
The story mode perfectly mimics the look of the cartoon and uses familiar locations and storylines to immerse users into the YGO environment once again. The rules of the trading card game are reproduced to the letter ensuring players sharpen up their skills at the same time.
