Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links — The initial release of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links was nationwide in Japan, not limited to Hokkaido.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links — Russian language support existed in official Yu-Gi-Oh! products prior to 2020, such as the TCG and Legacy of the Duelist.

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses — The game does not have more than 800 cards; the actual card count is approximately 700 cards.

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses — The 'reincarnation system' is described as sacrificing one card for three random cards; the correct mechanic is that you sacrifice one card to receive one random card.

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Falsebound Kingdom — Joey Wheeler's storyline is not a prequel to Yugi's, and the main villain in that storyline is Nightshroud, not Marik Ishtar

Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories — The game's sales figure of '2 million units in the United States and Europe as of 2004' is unverified and likely inflated, with no reliable source supporting that number.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories — The entity 'Nitemare' is not an 'ancient evil wizard' but rather a demonic being or dark spirit; the game's lore describes it as a 'dark power' or 'evil god'.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel — The game's music was mainly composed by Yasunori Nishiki. This is incorrect; the soundtrack was primarily composed by Shogo Sakai, with Yasunori Nishiki contributing only a few tracks.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel — The game reached 262,333 concurrent players on Steam within a week of release. This is inaccurate; the peak concurrent player count on Steam was 262,333, but this occurred on the day of release (January 19, 2022), not within a week.

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Sacred Cards — The game launched in Japan on July 4, 2002, but the correct release date is July 13, 2002.

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Sacred Cards — The game was re-released in 2025 as part of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection, but this collection was released in 2023, not 2025.

Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004 — The opponent named 'Simon' is not a character in this game; the Exodia-using opponent is actually 'Rare Hunter'.

Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004 — The claim that the game includes the first 1,138 cards from the Japanese release is incorrect; the actual card pool is 1,135 cards.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition: Stairway to the Destined Duel — The game was released in Japan as 'Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters International' is incorrect; the Japanese title is 'Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters 6: Expert 2'.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition: Stairway to the Destined Duel — The claim that 'In 2025, it was included in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection' is speculative and not established canon; as of now, no such collection has been officially announced or released for 2025.
