Magic: The Gathering is set to embark on an exciting collaborative journey with the Final Fantasy franchise, unveiling stunning artwork and innovative gameplay mechanics. Recent insights from a panel at PAX East shed light on the mechanics that will enhance this Universes Beyond expansion, showcasing how various cards will synergize within the game.
Among the standout features of this collaboration is the Job Select mechanic, which appears frequently, while certain cards will introduce unique mechanics exclusive to them. This is particularly noteworthy for iconic characters from the Final Fantasy series, providing both literal and figurative heft to the gameplay.
Additionally, familiar mechanics such as Tifa’s Landfall and Melee will make appearances, but the expansion will also spotlight lesser-known mechanics beyond traditional ones like Haste, Flying, and Lifelink.
As anticipation builds, players can look forward to more card reveals in the weeks ahead. Stay tuned for updates as more keywords and mechanics come to light, enriching the gaming experience for Magic: The Gathering enthusiasts.
