Magic: Legends, an MMO action RPG developed at Cryptic Studios, is based on the popular trading card game Magic: The Gathering and we finally get our first glimpse of some gameplay.

The gameplay footage was revealed as part of Game Informer’s January magazine cover story, which gives us a taste of what seems to be a diablo-esque type of combat system.

From all the chaos and destruction in the gameplay trailer you can tell it plays like your typical top down action RPG. but Magic: Legends actually has a deck building system where you need to build a deck of 12 that will consist of your spells, buffs, and summons. You will have 4 active cards at one time and using one will result in it being replaced by another card from your deck.

Magic: Legends was first revealed at The Game Awards 2019 with a cinematic trailer and Cryptic Studios stated that Legends is an MMO set in the Magic universe.

So far, that’s all we know about Magic: Legends. This is a free-to-play title that will be out on PS4, Xbox One, and PC later this year.
