Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories (2021)

As the name implies, it is a remade version of the nostalgic released for PS4/5, XBOX ONE/Series S and PC.

Plot and Charaters
They will remain the same as the original, but with much better graphics this time.

New Game +

 * New Game + is a feature created for the hardcore players (or so I hope). It can can be accessed once the player completes the game for the first time. When the player chooses the New Game option, they can decide whether they will play a new game with the normal difficulty or New Game +, where the opponents will become harder of defeat, and will offer different cards upon being defeated. Also in New Game +, you gain 2x the amount of Star Chips per rank. In Free Duel Mode, each opponent will have their standard version and their "+" version, and the player can alternate between them by pressing R1 or L1, and they will be available after defeating them in the "+" mode. The amount of victories and defeats against them will also differ. In the "+" mode, opponents can sometimes change the Guardian Star of their monsters, according to the situation and they will offer 2x the Star Chips they give upon defeat in Free Duel.

Gameplay and new cards
The greatest difference of this game to it's PS1 counterpart lies here. In addition to the 722 original cards, this game will contain an additional of 778 cards, making it a total of 1500 available cards. Many anime/manga exclusive cards will be present here too. Some non cards such has Two-Headed Jackal Warrior and Heavy Metal King will also take part of this remade version. Also, every starter deck will contain 1 trap card. Check more details below

New monster types
Wyrms and Psichc will be introduced in this version.

Guardian Stars
Just like the original game, the guardian stars will be kept here and will have the same role, except for the fact that the player can switch the guardian stars of the monsters once every turn. Check more in Guardian Stars

Ritual
The Ritual playability will remain pretty much the same as the PS1 version, except that now the player can Ritual Summon a monster tributing any monster they control and/or hand whose combined ATK equals or exceed the ATK of said Ritual Monster, making the Ritual Monster much more useful in this version. The Ritual Monsters will also be dropable cards and can be played like any normal monsters once obtained. Ritual spells will also be usable as equip cards for their corresponding Ritual Monster, increasing their ATK and DEF by 500. Ritual Summoned Monsters will have their card borders blue, so they can be distinguished from the others, even if there are other monsters with the same name that were not Ritual Summoned, so the player can tell exactly how much a Ritual Weapon (FMR 2021) will boost their ATK/DEF.

Passwords
The password section is now at the card shop and the player can either insert the card number he wants to purchase, or inserting it's corresponding game number from the library.

Fusions
Being the main, or better yet, the only possible way for the early player to advance trhough the  early game, this feature will remain the same as it's older counterpart, but will have some improvements: A Team Fusion can be performed by fusing 3 or more cards togheter, if the Fusion Summoning condittion are met. For example: 5 dragons can be used to Fusion Summon 1 5-headed Dragon, all, at once. None of the Dragons will fuse one per one. The 5 cards will be fused at once. Also, unlike in the original game, where the player had to run a during the great most of the game, this game will contain much more options of fusions with monster having over 2000 ATK. Also, Fusion Summoned Monsters will have their card border changed to purple, to differ them of non fusion summoned monsters.

Spell/Trap Fusions
The player can still obtain spell and traps by fusion

Cards
Again, while the original game had 722 cards, this one will contain 1500, the card list, as well the droping rate will be created later. Among these cards, there will be 7 cards made exclusively for this verion of the game.

Card Drop
Every time you win a duel, either in the main story or in the free duel, the opponent will drop a card from their deck. The rarity of the card will depend on how the player won the duel. After defeating the same opponent 10 times (main story included), the player will gain the deck recipe of that opponent, making it easier to see what cards they can drop once defeated.

3D library cards
In the 3D feature of the library, the monsters will now perform their victory poses, as well their attacks corresponding to their Guardian Stars. The player can also take a full view of these monsters by moving the analogs. Spell cards animations will also be shown if the player so desires.

Starchips
Starchips will be used to buy cards by passwords, exactly like in the PS1 versions. The highest ammount of starchips a player can obtain winning a duel in the standard mode is 5, while the lowest is 1. The player cannot purchase the same cards more than once. Check the future list below for more details. They will also be used to purchase field skins

Effects
No! There will be no effect monsters

New Characters

 * several new characters will appear in this version, including Yami Yugi (FMR 2021), appearing after the main story being over (Not you, of course, but the Yami Yugi that plays Dark Magician, Curse of Dragon, the three egyptian gods, etc) Mako Tsunami (FMR 2021), Bonz (FMR 2021), Panik (FMR 2021), Paradox Brothers (FMR 2021), all of them appearing during the preliminary match, making it lasting longer, but not changing anything in the main story and also several Yugioh GX characters, including Camula (FMR 2021) and a few others that can be obtained by password yet to be decided and that will be only available in the Free Duel Mode.

Fusion Chart
The fusions shown below will follow the same logic as the original game

General Monster Fusion
Generic Fusion Monsters based on their types. Keep in mind that only the types Dragon and Pyro can be seen as a secondary type present on monsters. For example, Firebird (FMR 2021) is a Winged-Beast that also works as a Pyro for Fusions and equipment and Root Wood, despite being a Dinosaur can be used as a Dragon for several Fusions and equipment and also as a Pyro. Other monsters types must have their type corresponding to the required monster type for the Fusion. For example, Gil Garth (FMR 2021) despite being essentially a Machine, cannot be used to Fusion Summon a Fiendish Engine Ω (FMR 2021) using another Fiend monster for the fusion. Instead, another Machine is required. The monster on the list aren't required to proceed to the next Fusion Monster of the list, but must have their atk points respected. For example, a Flame Manipulator is not required to be fused with a Pyro monster to make Flame Ruler (FMR 2021), but the player must consider that at least 1 of the Fusion Material must have atk equal than or higher than 900 and both must have atk lower than 1500.

Single Fusions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fusions that have only a single fusion summonable monster based on the fusion materials's atk. The fusion logic of neither of the monsters having atk equal than or higher of the monster you would want to summon is still appliable. The semi-exclusive fusions, a type of fusion that requires a specific monster and then any monster with a specific type is also part of the single fusions.
