The Universes Beyond initiative allowed Magic The Gathering fans to see their circle broadened thanks to the in-game introduction of franchises from gaming and film culture that brought a huge influx of audiences to the world of Wizards of playing cards the Coast. The Lord of the Rings, Assassin’s Creed and Marvel are just some of the examples in this sense.
According to new reports, MTG may soon be getting a Universes Beyond set based on Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere. It was the creator of this narrative universe who reported it, as reported by the information site MTGRocks.
Q: Can we ever expect a Universes Beyond: Cosmere?
A: I would be open to the idea. In fact, when they started exploring Universes Beyond, before they even knew where they were going, they came to me and said ‘Hey, would you ever like to do one of these things?’”
This is the statement that Sanderson made during a recent Q&A. Has the project already been secretly started? We can’t know for the moment, but the fact that there has actually been contact between Sanderson and Wizards of the Coast is very exciting for fans. Further information will most likely be released in the coming months, should this collaboration prove to be official.
