Magic Duels: Origins will be the next game in the long line of Magic-centric titles. Steel Games, who is developing Origins, recently announced that this outing will be the first time Magic has adopted a free-to-play model. While this will more than likely mean that players will have to buy new cards inside the game's infrastructure, it does allow more people to get involved.
A new trailer accompanied the news of Magic Duels: Origins and its announcement earlier today:
Here's a list of cool, new features that will be coming to the world of Magic video games when the title releases:
- Improved Deck Builder with step-by-step deck construction guidance
- First-ever playable Planeswalker cards
- Solo Battle mode featuring virtually endless AI opponents
- Expanded multiplayer options, including Two-Headed Giant mode
- Quest system with new individual and community challenges every week
- Limitless Free-to-Play with 100% earnable content
- All-new Skill Quest tutorial system
Origins will be available on PC, iPad and Xbox One in July. The Playstation 4 version will lag behind the others for a short time period; no explanation has been given for this delay.
