Magic: The Gathering's head designer, Mark Rosewater, has responded to criticism from fans who think he's gone back on his word that MTG would be "one cohesive game" and refrain from introducing crossover promotions to the fan-favourite collectable card game.
The comments come after Wizards of the Coast recently revealed what new crossover expansions Magic: The Gathering fans can expect to see next year, including new sets based upon Final Fantasy, Fallout, and the Assassin's Creed series.
Back in 2018, Rosewater was asked if WotC would ever "consider licensing a different IP and creating different cards for it". In response, he said that the team thought it was "important that Magic is one cohesive game and not a hodge podge of different things".
