In a thrilling collaboration between Final Fantasy and Magic the Gathering, the team behind this epic crossover reveals the meticulous process of selecting elements from both iconic franchises. With a shared passion for Final Fantasy and Magic, the team devised a tier system to ensure the inclusion of essential characters and story moments from each game. This tier system, ranging from hallmark elements to deep cuts, guided the selection process for the cards in the set.
Commander decks representing different Final Fantasy games were meticulously crafted, with characters and story beats carefully chosen to resonate with fans. The adaptation of characters from the video games into the Magic universe posed a unique challenge, with each character's multifaceted nature requiring a focused snapshot for their card representation. The team's approach involved capturing key story moments to reflect the essence of each character within the constraints of a Magic card.
This ambitious project encapsulates the rich history of Final Fantasy spanning 37 years, aiming to cater to fans of both Final Fantasy and Magic the Gathering. By offering multiple iterations for various formats, the crossover seeks to engage fans from both worlds in a truly immersive experience. The cards are set to release on June 13th, promising an exciting blend of two beloved universes for enthusiasts to explore and enjoy.
