'''Xtra HERO''' ({{Ruby|Ｘ・ＨＥＲＯ|エクストラヒーロー}}, ''Ekusutora Hīrō'') is a sub-[[series]] of the "[[HERO]]" [[archetype]] that is comprised completely of [[Link Monster]]s. It is the first, and currently only, sub-group of the "HERO" archetype that has not been used by any character in any of the anime or manga, and is the first "HERO" theme to be introduced since the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' era (excluding the [[illegal]] "[[E☆HERO Pit Boss|E☆HERO]]" monster and "[[Contrast HERO Chaos|Contrast HERO]]").
==Playing Stylestyle==The "Xtra HERO" monsters play a supplemental role to the various "HERO" monsters and sub-archetypes, either as a whole or to specific said sub-archetypes. "[[Xtra HERO Wonder Driver|Wonder Driver]]" in particular counts as the former, given "HERO"'s predisposition to Special Summon [[Fusion Summon|Fusion SummoningMonster]]s, by effectively recycling the [[Spell Card|Spells]] that facilitate their ability to [[Summon]] such [[Fusion Monster|Fusion Monsters]]them. As for the latter, "[[Xtra HERO Cross Crusader|Cross Crusader]]" specifically calls for use of "[[Destiny HERO]]" monsters (fitting as its Japanese name shares the "guy" naming convention with said archetype), but after which it can assist in all "HERO" strategies by searching among any of their differently-named monsters.
