Cloud, Terra, and a handful of other Final Fantasy heroes are going to be available in Magic: The Gathering Arena.
This summer, the characters of Square Enix‘s Final Fantasy video games are being reimagined through the lens of Magic: The Gathering for a new set of trading cards. And at least some of those collectible cards won’t be limited to the real world, as the Final Fantasy Commander cards head to the Magic: The Gathering Arena video game.
During a livestream revealing the new cards, it was announced that the four face commanders and the four backup commanders from the Final Fantasy decks will be in Magic: The Gathering Arena. So far, the currently revealed commanders are Cloud from Final Fantasy VII, Tidus from Final Fantasy X, Y’shtola from Final Fantasy XIV, and Terra from Final Fantasy VI.

There’s no guarantee that all of the Final Fantasy cards will be heading to Arena, but it leaves the door open for more. While only four of the Final Fantasy titles are represented in the current batch of commanders, Wizards of the Coast’s official site notes from “every mainline Final Fantasy game” will appear as “depicted through the lens of Magic: The Gathering.”
The currently announced Commander decks will retell the stories of Final Fantasy VI, Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy X, and Final Fantasy XIV. Wizards of the Coast also teased two new mechanics that will be introduced to Magic: The Gathering through this crossover collaboration. However, details for those additions are being held back until May.
Magic: The Gathering’s Final Fantasy card decks will hit stores on June 13. For now, there’s no word as to when the Final Fantasy Commander cards will debut in Magic: The Gathering Arena.
