Magic: The Gathering Unveils Stunning Final Fantasy Set in 2-Hour Video

Okay, so, I was at PAX East, right? And lemme tell you, the screams? Yeah, endless, like a seagull concert. Wizards of the Coast, they kinda went all out with this Magic: The Gathering and Final Fantasy crossover. Sounds wild, I know. Picture this: a two-hour showcase where they just tore open packs like it’s Christmas morning, showing off Chocobos and those lush cards that look straight outta a Final Fantasy dreamscape.

Anyway—wait, did they show these before? I think maybe back in February? Yeah, that sounds about right. But this time, they gave us a real sneak peek, not just at the flashy stuff, but how these cards are gonna play. Like, in the game itself. Makes me wanna dive in, even though I once lost a card under my couch, never to be found again.

Oh, oh, and guess what? They got Yoshitaka Amano back! Yeah, the artist dude who draws like he’s from another dimension. He’s redone Kefka and some other stuff. Feels like old school meets now, which is pretty rad.

So, this isn’t Wizards’ first rodeo with crossovers. Nah, they’ve done Lord of the Rings, Marvel, even Spongebob—like what even? But this Final Fantasy showdown? It’s gonna be huge. Like, earth-shattering huge. Hasbro’s boss, Chris Cocks, seems super chill about the whole economic mess in the world. He said this set’s already their biggest hit. Believe that?

And look, we gotta wait until June 13th. I’m marking my calendar with a giant star, ‘cause that’s when it drops. Oh, and if you want these cards right on release day—because who doesn’t like firsts—you might wanna think about pre-ordering. Just saying.
