Hasbro Develops Magic: The Gathering Commander Video Game

Wizards of the Coast is developing a video game version of Magic: The Gathering's Commander format, as part of Hasbro's digital strategy to engage fans. This new game will differ from the Magic Arena app by allowing more than two players and featuring collectible elements, including collaborations with other franchises like Lord of the Rings and Marvel. The move follows recent changes in the custodianship of the Commander format and comes amid Hasbro's financial struggles, with its digital gaming segments showing growth despite overall revenue declines.
