Mokuba Kaiba is a playable Legendary Duelist in Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links. This is a video game depiction of Mokuba Kaiba, a character from the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime.
He is unlocked as a playable character by clearing the second Mission Bingo card. Prior to being made available as a playable character, he had also appeared as a non-playable character in special events as a roaming duelist. From February 13, 2018 onwards, Mokuba appears at the Gate once the player reaches Stage 13 in Duel World (DM).
Blue keys are required to duel Mokuba at the Gate.
Description[]
Seto Kaiba's younger brother may only be in elementary school, but he's smart enough to be the Vice President of KaibaCorp. A skilled gamer in his own right, Mokuba is a Capsule Monsters champion. Whether those skills translate to being a Duelist is yet to be seen.

Trivia[]
- He is the Duel Monsters (DM) counterpart of Mokuba Kaiba (DSOD).
- In the game files, Mokuba had voice lines for "Labradorite Dragon", but as December 2020, the said dialogue was removed for unknown reasons.
- Mokuba's Level 30 Deck is a reference to the Russian Roulette Dinner he played with Yugi and Jonouchi in the manga.
- "Hungry Burger" and "Poison of the Old Man" references the burger Mokuba was poisoned with.
- The inclusion of "Battle Steer", "Bio Plant" and "Griggle" may be a reference to the monster requirements for "Hamburger Recipe" in Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses.
- Prior to a patch (June 22, 2017), Mokuba had multiple audio glitches relating to his attacking dialogue. "Luster Dragon", "Luster Dragon 2", and "Alexandrite Dragon" played the audio of "Luster Dragon 2", "Luster Dragon" and "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane".
- Dialogue for "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane" is an oddity considering that, in the first Mokuba event when this glitch existed, Mokuba was not a playable character and did not have "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane" in any of his Decklists.
- Within Mokuba's dialogue for "Shinato's Ark" and "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane", he mentions Noah Kaiba, a reference to the Kaiba family's encounter in the Virtual World Arc, and the fact Noah is he original user of the two aforementioned cards.
- By 2020, the dialogue for "Shinato's Ark" and "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane" were removed for unknown reasons. This also makes Mokuba Kaiba the first Legendary Duelist to have a decreased amount of card-specific dialogue.
- Dialogue for "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane" is an oddity considering that, in the first Mokuba event when this glitch existed, Mokuba was not a playable character and did not have "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane" in any of his Decklists.
