VRAINS is an acronym for "Virtual Reality Artificial Intelligence Network System". In futuristic Den City, people duel using digital cards in the VR space "LINK VRAINS" managed by SOL Technology, Inc. A mysterious organization known as the Knights of Hanoi hacks into LINK VRAINS in search of a runaway AI program, Ignis. One duelist with the username "Playmaker" stands against this threat.
