The WotC President said that Spellslingers would 'reinvent the genre for the mobile-first generation.' Together with MTG Arena, ManaStrike and Magic: Legends the game would form part of WotC's 'Year of Digital Expansion'.

As gamers progress in Spellslingers, they might be more likely to jump into Arena-or simply keep playing Spellslingers and buying new cards. The idea was to use Spellslingers as a monetizable entry point into the card game in a controlled all-digital environment. It was described as a card battler that's more accessible to everyday mobile gamers. In-App Purchases will be involved, but while there are certain unavoidable pay-to-win aspects of any card game, Wizards of the Coast is minimizing them.Īt a Hasbro investor's meeting at ToyFair in February 2020, Chris Cocks formally introduced the game as Magic Spellslingers. The game is free to download, with new cards obtainable via in-game quests and by opening packs. On the other hand, deck building and customization are still very much a part of the overall experience. They have unique card types and playstyles, with pre-made decks that allow newcomers to at least be competitive right away. Valor's Reach will put the Planeswalkers right at the heart of the action by making them the focus. Vertical gameplay allows for one-handed use for a unique experience in the genre.

Originally announced as Valor's Reach, inspired by the Kylem stadium of the same name where magical duels are fought, the game offers a new take on mobile CCGs by combining opportunistic bluffing and counterplay that delivers depth and strategy with mobile accessibility.
