El Segundo, Calif. (October 30, 2018) – Everything old is new, and everything departed lives again in the Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME (TCG) this Winter! Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc.

Monsters from beyond the grave! Whether you’re a casual competitor or a veteran tournament Duelist, KONAMI’s got you covered this holiday season.
…Covered in Zombies, that is! Structure Deck: Zombie Horde brings powerful new support for Zombies, including the Vampire theme from Dark Saviorsand a new Zombie tribe in the upcoming Hidden Summoners booster set. Classic corpses like Mezuki and Zombie Master are back alongside spooky staples like Shiranui Solitaire and Uni-Zombie, all united under the banner of the mighty Doomking Balerdroch: a stunning new Zombie that claws its way out of your Graveyard every turn, so long as you or your opponent control a Field Spell. Armed with powerful negation and banishing abilities, the undead behemoth works to punish opposing Zombies. Necrotize your opponents’ legions with Zombie World, then shut down their effects and banish them from the Duel!
Search your Zombie World straight from your Deck with the new Necroworld Banshee, then revive it to protect your Field Spell from destruction and targeting. Unleash powerful Zombie Synchro Monsters with Glow-Up Bloom and if you control Zombie World use Bloom’s effect to Special Summon a massive Zombie straight from your Deck. Tatsunecro offers even more ways to Synchro Summon, helping you unleash the power of Red-Eyes Zombie Necro Dragon! And if that wasn’t enough, new Spell and Trap cards return from the Graveyard just as easily as your zombie hordes, mimicking incredible cards like Change of Heart*.

Hidden Summoners introduces two more themes as well.
