An Extra Link is a chain of Mutual Links that connects both Extra Monster Zones. This allows a player to control monsters in both Extra Monster Zones simultaneously, and blocks the opponent from using either of the Extra Monster Zones.
A player can perform an Extra Link, so long as the following conditions are met:
- The player controls a Link Monster in an Extra Monster Zone while the other Extra Monster Zone is unoccupied.
- The three middle Main Monster Zones on the player's side of the field must be occupied by Link Monsters each in a Mutual Link with each other.
- The Link Monster controlled in the Extra Monster Zone and the Link Monster in the same column as it must be in a Mutual Link.
- The Link Monster in the same column as the unoccupied Extra Monster Zone must have a Link Marker pointing to that zone.
In that case, a Link Monster can be Summoned to the unoccupied Extra Monster Zone, as long as it maintains the Extra Link by meeting the following conditions:
- The newly-Summoned Link Monster must be in a Mutual Link with the Link Monster in the same column.
- Performing the Summon of that Link Monster must not disturb the Extra Link (e.g. by using the monsters involved in the Extra Link as Link Materials).
The final result is a U-shaped chain of five Link Monsters where each monster is in a Mutual Link with the monsters orthogonally adjacent to it.
