In a blog post on March 18, Magic: The Gathering head designer Mark Rosewater praised Universes Beyond as the best addition to Magic in 2023. Universes Beyond is a line of Magic products that crossover with other existing intellectual properties, starting with Secret Lair and expanding to full MTG sets and Commander decks. Despite initial fan reservations and high licensing fees, Universes Beyond has been successful, with Warhammer 40k Commander decks selling out and MTG Lord of the Rings becoming the best-selling set ever. Rosewater believes that Universes Beyond allows for unique design opportunities and taps into an emotional connection with fans. While Universes Beyond was a highlight of 2023, MTG Battles were also praised by Rosewater as a close runner-up. Fans can stay updated on Magic news by following Wargamer on Google News or checking the MTG release schedule for information on MTG Arena decks and codes.
