Once again, Konami has put out an official statement noting that due to the Coronavirus / COVID-19 situation,  all upcoming events, including the OP, YCS/WCQ , and TCG sneak peeks / premieres, have been canceled.

To the Yu-Gi-Oh! TRADING CARD GAME community –

As we continue to monitor developments related to the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic, we have closely evaluated and heeded the recommendations of government health authorities and experts. We take seriously our role in contributing to the overall health and safety of our colleagues, Tournament Store owners and staff, and the entire Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG fan base. In keeping with the most recent guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), we believe it is in the best interest of our community, and the community at large, to cancel all of our Organized Play and promotional events for the next 8 weeks, through Sunday May 10. Jointly, we share a responsibility to prevent community spread of this virus by practicing social distancing and we appreciate everyone’s cooperation during this time of uncertainty.
