New fusion powers allow Digimon to combine and Fuse their abilities to create endless battle possibilities. Unleashing countless Digimon combinations, Digimon Fusion takes today's tech-savvy kids inside an adventure-packed digital world, where the heroes' courage is matched only by the fusion of their teamwork, loyalty and humor.
