Oh man, where do I even start with this? So, picture this: I’m at PAX East, which is kinda like geek paradise on steroids. There’s this super intense buzz in the air, all because of Magic: The Gathering doing this funky mash-up with Final Fantasy. I mean, it’s the kind of hype that makes people scream — literally! Imagine a room full of folks geeking out over, like, Chocobos and these crazy cool land cards pulling vibes from classic Final Fantasy spots. Wild, right?
So, apparently, Wizards of the Coast — they’re the masterminds here — had shown some of these cards back in, uh, February maybe? Time’s a blur. Anyway, fast forward to PAX East, and we get a closer look. Not just peek, mind you, but really get into how they’ll shake up gameplay come summer. Which is… exciting? Maybe? Or just confusing if, like me, you’re sometimes hopelessly lost with too many cards.
Oh, and then — plot twist! — Yoshitaka Amano, this genius behind some epic artwork, is back in action. His take on Kefka? Chef’s kiss Totally next level. I felt like I could almost hear the ominous orchestral tones from the game as I stared at it. Or maybe that was just my stomach growling — long day and all.
Let’s talk crossovers for a sec. It’s not just Final Fantasy in the mix. Wizards are on fire with these collaborations. Picture Lord of the Rings, Marvel, SpongeBob. Yep, you heard right. SpongeBob. Bikini Bottom will never be the same. Apparently, Chris Cocks, the big cheese over at Hasbro, said this set is breaking sales records. Even with the world kinda doing a topsy-turvy dance economically, they’re expecting massive success. Who’d have thought cardboard could do that?
And hey, we’re still, like, what, a month away? June 13 is circled on my calendar (mentally). If you’re like those overzealous collector-types, you might wanna lock in those pre-orders. Day one is serious business.
Anyway, wait — what was I saying? Oh yeah, it’s gonna be epic. Or confusing. Or both. The chaos is beautiful.
