Magic: The Gathering Lead Designer Responds to Criticism Over Crossover with Popular Franchises

Following the announcement that Magic: The Gathering will crossover with popular franchises like Fallout and Assassin’s Creed in 2024, lead designer Mark Rosewater has responded to the criticism he’s received from fans.

as TheGamerAs noted, Rosewater said: “My goal on this blog is to share with you my best feelings about Magic’s design at that moment. Magic often moves in directions I couldn’t have predicted. If you were there ten years ago Ask me, and like a lot of people, I don’t predict the universe beyond.

This is completely different from what he said in 2018 when he was asked whether the game would “consider licensing different IPs and creating different cards for them.” At the time, he said: “Magic is a cohesive game, not a hodgepodge of different things. In other words, we want Magic to be our thing, not someone else’s.

What do you think of these new Universes Beyond series?

Thanks, Eurogamer
