The upcoming Digimon Con 2025 promises exciting news for Digimon fans, with a particular teaser hinting at a mobile-related TCG announcement. A confused Renamon and a mobile phone in the teaser image strongly suggest a digital version of the Digimon TCG might be on the horizon. While a tutorial app already exists for iOS and Android, the timing, following the release of Pokémon TCG Pocket, makes a full-fledged mobile TCG a compelling possibility.
However, it’s important to temper expectations. The teaser may simply indicate mobile as a viewing platform for the upcoming livestream, rather than the platform for the new project itself.
Despite Digimon’s popularity, it undeniably sits in Pokémon’s shadow. While Digimon holds a special place in the hearts of nostalgic anime fans, Pokémon enjoys significantly broader global appeal. A digital Digimon TCG wouldn't guarantee immediate success, but given the existing TCG's popularity, expanding accessibility through a mobile platform could be a strategic masterstroke.
We'll have to wait for the Digimon Con livestream later this month to learn more. In the meantime, check out our recent game reviews, including Jupiter's take on the highly anticipated Good Coffee, Great Coffee.
