History[edit]

Industrial Illusions is the company that makes Duel Monsters and publishes Dungeon Dice Monsters worldwide. The company is run by the Duel Monsters creator Maximillion Pegasus. The company supplies Duel Monsters expansion data to KaibaCorp. for their Solid Vision technology (explained in Yu-Gi-Oh! R). Pegasus and Seto Kaiba are business acquaintances. But before the Duelist Kingdom tournament Pegasus teamed with Kaiba's old executives, the Big Five, in order to take over KaibaCorp and use the Solid Vision technology to simulate his lover, Cecelia Pegasus' existence. (In the English dub version, he wanted to use KaibaCorp's technology in combination with the seven Millennium Items to revive his deceased wife.)

In the manga, after Pegasus lost to Dark Yugi and then died at the hands of Dark Bakura, his adoptive son Yako Tenma took over as president of the company. Yako, in his attempt for revenge, took over KaibaCorp, in attempt to revive Pegasus via Project R.A., which ultimately failed.
