Digimon Alysion is being released as a mobile online card game. The clearest published Android target is Android 11 or newer with at least 8 GB of RAM, while Apple’s current store listing requires iOS 15.0 or later on iPhone and iPadOS 15.0 or later on iPad. Apple lists the iOS app at 159.1 MB, but that is a storefront download figure rather than a guaranteed total-space requirement. Bandai has not published a final Android size or a final universal free-space recommendation, and it warns that beta requirements can change before launch. Use the figures below as planning guidance, not a promise that every device will run the game perfectly.
What devices officially support Digimon Alysion?
The official DIGIMON ALYSION website classifies the game as mobile and places its official release in 2026. An October 28, 2026 site update says the website was being refreshed alongside pre-registration. The published compatibility information therefore concerns phones and tablets, not a confirmed desktop or console edition.
| Platform | Published requirement or listing | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Android phones and tablets | Android 11 or newer; at least 8 GB RAM in the closed-beta announcement | These are the beta-era targets, not a guaranteed final release specification. |
| iPhone | iOS 15.0 or later in the current Apple App Store listing | The store requirement is current; the beta notice separately mentioned a 4 GB RAM target. |
| iPad | iPadOS 15.0 or later in the current Apple App Store listing | Apple’s listing does not provide a final RAM minimum. |
| PC, Mac and consoles | No official support identified; the official site describes the game as mobile | Android emulation or community speculation should not be treated as supported platforms. |
These requirements come from different documents and have different status. The Android and iOS RAM figures were published for a closed beta, whereas the operating-system floors on Apple’s listing are current storefront requirements. Bandai’s terms also state that the app is not guaranteed to be compatible with all devices.
“Even if requirements are met, there may be cases where the game cannot be played depending on device particulars or network conditions.” — BANDAI CO., LTD., official DIGIMON ALYSION closed-beta announcement.
Can my Android phone run Digimon Alysion?
An Android device is closest to the published beta target when it runs Android 11 or later and has 8 GB or more of installed RAM. Check both values in the phone’s settings; a newer Android version alone is not enough if the device has less memory.
How to check Android version
- Open Settings.
- Choose About phone, About device, or a similarly named menu.
- Read Android version. Some manufacturers place this under Software information.
- Install pending system updates if the phone offers them, then recheck the version.
How to check installed RAM
Android menus vary by manufacturer. Look in Settings > About phone, search Settings for RAM or memory, or consult the manufacturer’s specification page for the exact model. Do not confuse advertised storage, such as 128 GB, with RAM. Storage holds the app and its data; RAM is working memory used while the game is running.
Virtual or expanded RAM features that reserve part of internal storage are not the same as physical installed RAM. The beta notice referred to the device’s RAM requirement, so a phone that reaches a marketing number only by borrowing storage should not be assumed to meet it.
Why meeting the Android figures may still be insufficient
Bandai specifically cautions that device particulars and network conditions can prevent play even when the listed requirements are met. Two phones with the same Android version and RAM can differ in graphics hardware, thermal behavior, storage speed, firmware, background services and modem performance. The published materials do not provide a supported chipset or GPU list, so processor branding cannot be used as an official pass/fail test.
Does Digimon Alysion work on iPhone or iPad?
Apple’s current listings set the operating-system floor at iOS 15.0 or later for iPhone and iPadOS 15.0 or later for iPad. If an iPhone or iPad cannot update to those versions, the App Store will not treat it as compatible with the current listing.
Check an iPhone
- Open Settings > General > Software Update and note the installed iOS version.
- Install an available update if the device supports one.
- Open the App Store listing for DIGIMON ALYSION and check whether the device is marked compatible in your region.
Check an iPad
- Open Settings > General > Software Update.
- Confirm that the tablet is on iPadOS 15.0 or later, or update it when offered.
- Check the App Store listing on the iPad itself. Store availability can vary by country and account region.
The closed-beta announcement listed a 4 GB RAM target for iOS devices, but Apple’s current listing does not state a final RAM minimum. That makes the operating-system requirement the reliable storefront check while leaving model-level performance qualification unresolved.
How much storage does Digimon Alysion need?
The only published numerical size is Apple’s 159.1 MB listing for the iOS app. It is the store’s displayed app size, not a guarantee of the space consumed after installation or the amount needed for future patches and downloaded game data.
What the 159.1 MB figure does and does not tell you
- Download size: the amount Apple currently reports for the iOS listing.
- Installed size: space occupied after the operating system unpacks the app, which can differ from the download figure.
- Additional game data: files downloaded after first launch, such as assets, events or account data.
- Update headroom: temporary room an app store may need while replacing or unpacking an update.
- Cache and user data: files that can grow during use and may not be included in the initial listing size.
Because those categories are separate, do not treat 159.1 MB as a universal free-space requirement for every device.
Is an Android storage number available?
No final Android installation size was exposed in the researched Google Play listing. The listing confirms the Android storefront presence and shows an October 19, 2026 update, but it does not publish a dependable size or final RAM specification. Do not copy the iOS figure to Android: package contents, compression and post-install downloads can differ between platforms.
How much free space should you leave?
Bandai has not published a final total-space recommendation or a fixed update buffer. The practical approach is to keep substantially more free space than the displayed download size, especially before a major patch, while treating any number supplied by a later official listing as the authoritative figure. A device with only a few hundred megabytes free can fail during unpacking even when the initial download appears small.
On iPhone or iPad, open Settings > General > iPhone Storage or iPad Storage to see available capacity. On Android, use Settings > Storage. Remove unused downloads or apps before installing, and leave room for the operating system as well as the game.
Could the requirements change before release?
Yes. The closed-beta announcement warns that recommended requirements may change, including increased storage size or higher performance-load requirements. It says those changes could leave some devices used during the beta unable to download or play the official release version.
This is why beta figures should be read as a floor for planning rather than a final certification. Recheck the App Store or Google Play listing when the release build is available, and read any launch notice for revised RAM, storage or operating-system guidance.
Is Digimon Alysion available on PC, Mac or consoles?
No official PC, Mac, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch or Steam version is identified in the published materials considered here. The official site positions DIGIMON ALYSION as a mobile game. An emulator may be able to run an Android package, but that is not the same as official support, and compatibility, account access, controls and performance are not guaranteed.
Do not buy hardware or software on the assumption that a desktop release is planned unless Bandai announces one through an official channel. The absence of a published PC specification also means there is no supported way to translate the mobile RAM figures into a desktop requirement.
What else affects whether the game works?
Operating-system version, RAM and free storage are only the measurable checkpoints currently published. Before installing, consider these additional factors:
- Device-specific hardware: no official chipset or GPU list has been released, so model-level results can vary.
- Thermal behavior: a phone may reduce performance when it becomes hot, particularly during long sessions or charging.
- Network reliability: this is an online card game, and Bandai identifies network conditions as a possible reason a device may fail to play.
- Background load: video capture, navigation, downloads and other memory-heavy apps can reduce available resources.
- Store region: pre-registration and availability may depend on the country associated with your Apple or Google account.
- System updates: an older firmware build can behave differently from the version used during official testing.
What should you do before installing?
- Identify the platform. Confirm that you are using an iPhone, iPad or Android device; no official desktop or console target has been announced in the cited materials.
- Check the operating system. Verify the current Apple or Android version and install supported updates.
- Check Android RAM. Use the manufacturer’s specification or the phone’s memory screen; do not substitute storage capacity or virtual-RAM marketing.
- Check available storage. Look at the system storage page, not just the phone’s advertised capacity.
- Leave update headroom. Keep substantially more free space than the initial store download because installation, patches, cache and game data can need extra room.
- Use a reliable connection. Complete downloads and first launch on a stable network, since the official warning includes network conditions.
- Recheck at launch. Compare the final store listing and Bandai’s release notice with the beta-era figures before assuming an older device remains supported.
What does the official compatibility warning mean in practice?
It means the published numbers are necessary planning clues, not a performance guarantee. Bandai’s terms say, “The App is not guaranteed to be compatible with all devices,” and the beta notice allows requirements to rise before release. A phone can therefore satisfy the listed operating-system and RAM thresholds yet still encounter crashes, long loading, overheating or an inability to install.
If installation fails, first verify the store’s current OS requirement, free internal storage and account region. If the app installs but will not start, update the operating system, close background apps, restart the device and try a stable connection. Persistent model-specific failures should be reported through Bandai’s official support route rather than “fixed” by assuming an emulator or unofficial package is supported.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install Digimon Alysion on an SD card?
The published materials do not confirm SD-card installation or movable game data. Treat internal storage as the safe requirement and avoid buying a device on the assumption that external storage will be supported.
Will clearing cache make an unsupported phone compatible?
Clearing cache can recover space or remove damaged temporary files, but it cannot add physical RAM, change an Android version or make an unlisted chipset officially supported. Use it only as a troubleshooting step after checking the store requirements.
Does pre-registration guarantee that my device will run the game?
No. Pre-registration records interest through an eligible storefront; it does not override the final compatibility check or Bandai’s warning that device particulars and network conditions can prevent play.
Why can the required free space be larger than the app-store size?
Stores may need temporary working space to download, unpack and replace files, while the game can add assets and cache after first launch. The listing’s download figure therefore cannot predict the peak space needed during an update.
