They see the title as their family conquering the Dueling world. Chazz's goal is somewhat forced upon him by his elder brothers. Many Duelists such as Jaden Yuki and Chazz Princeton hope to claim the title for themselves and defeat Yugi. Yugi still retains the title in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX and has become an icon because of his many Dueling feats. After Kaiba witnessed Yugi defeat all three God cards in one turn (which Kaiba admitted that he could not do), he officially recognized Yugi, rather than Yami Yugi, as the true King of Games.Дuel Academy's current top duelist: Jaden Yuki.

The title is not mentioned again in the Japanese version of the second series, however it is mentioned in the English version during the Ceremonial Battle. Yugi stopped the virus from spreading while Kaiba destroyed it, then won the Duel, and successfully defended his title again. The Duel was used as a means to destroy the KaibaCorp with a virus by Leon's elder brother, Zigfried. Yugi ended up Dueling against Leon von Schroeder, a member of a rival business family to the Kaiba family. As the King of Games, Yugi would only have to Duel once in the Championship Round to Duel the winner of the tournament and the right to defend his title. The reason for inviting Yugi was simple, more people would be willing to participate if they had a chance to Duel against the King of Games and win the title for themselves. In order to ensure that the best Duelists in the world would enter the tournament, he invited Yugi, Joey Wheeler and Rebecca Hawkins to compete. Kaiba hosts another tournament, the KC Grand Prix, in an attempt to restore his company's name after the events of Waking the Dragons arc.

Once Yugi defeated Rafael in a rematch, Kaiba believed that the title did have meaning to him again since the title is now his rival's once again. He berated Yugi and told him that the title of King no longer had meaning to him until Yugi regained it back from Rafael. During the Waking the Dragons arc, when Kaiba found out that Yugi was defeated by Rafael, one of the Three Swordsmen, he became infuriated. When Yugi won the Battle City tournament, he consequently defended his title. This purpose is omitted to Kaiba just wanting to defeat Yugi and any mention of Duel King is cut out in the English version. The second purpose was to give Kaiba a chance to defeat his rival Yugi and obtain the status of King of Games himself. In an attempt to obtain all three Egyptian God Cards, Seto Kaiba created his own Duel Monsters tournament, Battle City. When Yugi defeated Pegasus in the finals, he received the title. The title would recognize the winner as the number one Duelist in the world. In the event that one of them defeated him, in addition to getting any wish within Pegasus' power to grant, would also be granted the title of King of Games. Pegasus gives a speech to the four finalists, Yugi, Joey Wheeler, Mai Valentine, and Bandit Keith Howard, explaining that the winner of the tournament would receive 3,000,000 yen (dollars in the English version) with the Glory of the King's Hand card given to each participant invited to the tournament or the chance to Duel Pegasus himself with Glory of the King's Opposite Hand. The next mention of the title is during the Duelist Kingdom finals. The tournament was an event where all the best Duelists in the world would compete for the title of King of Games, a title that would signify the strongest Duelist in the world. Pegasus won a timed Duel by having more Life Points than Yugi when time was up, but was impressed by Yugi's skills enough to invite him to participate in his Duelist Kingdom tournament. After hearing that Seto Kaiba, the Duel Monsters Champion of Japan (World Champion in the English version), was defeated by Yugi Muto, he decided to test Yugi's skills personally by Dueling him.
