Once just a nondescript city on the coast, its since been the site of many important events in Dueling history and is the location of 's original and current headquarters. Originally the hometown of, , , , , and , it became during the tournament of the same name. KaibaCorp bought a controlling interest in the city at that time, and essentially takes ownership of the city, reclassifying the office of mayor as City Director and the police department as City Security, though they would still be called the mayor and police for many years after this by the city’s inhabitants. Initially, KabaCorp ownership had little effect the city’s government, with the only change being a residency requirement to own a and be a, one that was easily circumvented by personnel simply picking a random Starter or  and registering it on the citizenship forms of non-Duelist residents. Seto Kaiba eventually discovered this, but instead of being angry, simply revoked the Deck and Duelist requirements, stating it was better to have a city of mostly non-Duelists than a city of “amateurs so weak a dueling monkey could defeat them with ease”. As the city grew and expanded, the City Director and City Security became one and eventually became known as. Eventually, the city was renamed New Domino City, with the government buildings and KaibaCorp moving to newer, more modern parts of the city, while the original Domino City became a poorer area nicknamed Old Domino by locals. Around this time, Seto Kaiba retires as KaibaCorp CEO. In hopes of revitalizing the Old Domino area, the first Ener-D reactor was constructed there by the KaibaCorp with funding from sponsors. Unfortunately, thanks to the machinations of, the reactor caused the disaster, shearing off Old Domino from the rest of New Domino City and turning it into an island that was renamed Satellite. This also awakened the “” and triggered the events of. The survivors of the R.R.D. and the sponsors of the project instigate a massive cover-up, blaming the event on a natural disaster, and proceed to go out of there way to keep the survivors of the event trapped on Satellite as a means to keep anyone who worked on the reactor from revealing the truth. Ironically, this actually caused the opposite effect, as the sole (mortal) survivor of the reactor project in Satellite,, was forced to feel to New Domino City on a modified after Sector Security forced him to stop his construction of a bridge linking New Domino City and Satellite. The city then enters a period of great wealth disparity, with much of the poorer residents of the city being forced to relocate to Satellite, often by unscrupulous or outright illegal means. This dystopian system was encouraged by Sector Security’s new director, Rex Goodwin, who had joined Iliaster after fleeing Satellite. Goodwin had informed his superiors in the group that this system would keep the “Earthbound Immortals” contained in Satellite in a weakened state, but in reality, it would do the opposite, strengthening them with the negative energy generated by the sorrow and despair of the Satellite residents and allow them to enter New Domino City as they pleased because of the greed and arrogance it cultivated in the city’s residents. This was part of Goodwin’s plan to absorb both he power of the “Earthbound Immortals” and their opposite, the “”, unaware that he was being manipulated by the “Earthbound Immortals”, via their “” servants, into ensuring their victory, as their powers and the “Crimson Dragon’s” power are toxic to each other and cannot coexist inside the same body for long, with one eventually driving the other out or destroying their host.

A vibrant, futuristic city, it was originally located in another dimension and its inhabitant’s histories were slightly rewritten when it fused with the Origin Dimension. The city was founded by, an orphan from who wanted to build a place where taking care of the poor and orphans would be top priority. After becoming wealthy by designing and selling a number of new technologies, he looked to make his childhood dream a reality, making a deal with the owner of a small industrial city, one, to build his city on Heartland’s land. In return, the city would be named after Mr. Heartland and he would be made mayor for life. However, Dr. Faker was unaware that Mr. Heartland was an unscrupulous businessman with ties to the criminal underworld. Heartland secretly established a small criminal underworld, with him in charge of course, to further his own greed, and though much of this underworld has sense collapsed (primarily due to Heartland realizing that it was more profitable and less risky simply to be mayor), a surprising number of criminals and gangs can be found in the rougher areas of the city. Heartland City one of the few places that has officially suffered an alien invasion, as it was the center point for the -, though these events were covered-up and blamed on a cloud of hallucinogenic gas caused by a natural disaster.
