Following MTG Final Fantasy, another Square Enix Magic collab is “likely a matter of ‘when,’ not ‘if’”

MTG Final Fantasy is the only confirmed Universes Beyond collaboration featuring a Square Enix property… for now, at least.

However, it seems as though the famed game studio won’t be leaving the world of one of the best card games just yet. We’re a solid three months out from MTG Final Fantasy’s release date, and not only can you pre-order the set already but we’re also starting to hear whispers about a possible successor from the Magic: The Gathering team.

In an interview with Gamespot, Wizards of the Coast’s Franchise VP for Magic, Rebecca Shepard opened up on what she believes the future holds for the relationship between Magic: The Gathering and Square Enix. For starters, Shepard indicated that pretty much every external IP that has featured in MTG in releases like Universes Beyond or Secret Lair isn’t immune to making a return to the game, thanks to the ongoing communication WOTC tend to keep with collaborators: “I don't think there's ever an end to any partnership. Even if the product is done and we don't reprint it anymore because the term of the contract expired, we still stay in contact."
