"Brazilian soccer player Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior, better known as Neymar, is featured prominently in trading card game simulator Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, in a crossover event between the game and Konami's eFootball. Players who log into Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel in the next six weeks will have the chance to receive special event tickets, which when redeemed give a number of soccer-themed accessories and cards. Among them are two accessories prominently featuring Neymar, an in-game wallpaper and card sleeves."
"This is the first collaboration of its kind, as no other sporting personalities or celebrities have been featured in Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, as the company has typically avoided working with celebrities on Yu-Gi-Oh!. Konami, the publisher of Yu-Gi-Oh! both digitally and physically, previously announced a collaboration with then-FC Barcelona player Antoine Griezmann in 2021, but canceled it shortly after video surfaced appearing to show Griezmann and teammate Ousmane Dembélé mocking Asian staff."
Neymar appears in Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel through a crossover with Konami's eFootball, offering soccer-themed cosmetics and cards. Players who log in during the six-week event can receive event tickets redeemable for items, including two Neymar accessories: an in-game wallpaper and card sleeves. Neymar's in-game appearance wears a fantasy outfit inspired by the Dark Magician card, and unlocked wallpaper and sleeves remain permanently in player inventories after the event. The collaboration also adds other soccer accessories and cards such as an alternate-art Rescue Rabbit, various eFootball items, and a soccer stadium dueling field. Duel Links and physical events receive related themed items and a Neymar token.
