Magic: The Gathering Unites with PlayStation Stars: Kratos & More!

It seems like we’re seeing new collaborations in the world of Magic: The Gathering almost every month lately. Earlier this year, we welcomed a set of Final Fantasy cards, and just this month, some exciting Spider-Man cards made their debut. As much as I would love to have both, the prices can be a bit steep. Now, there’s an exciting new collaboration on the horizon featuring PlayStation characters that looks equally enticing.

The latest set showcases characters from legendary titles including The Last of Us, God of War, Uncharted, Horizon, and Ghost of Tsushima. While this is just a glimpse into the PlayStation universe, there’s plenty for fans of MTG and gaming to get excited about.

Cory Barlog, director of God of War, expressed the thrill surrounding this collaboration: “When we heard there was an opportunity to be a part of a Secret Lair drop, we jumped at it! The team at Wizards of The Coast is incredible, and it was an absolute pleasure bringing these cards to life with them. The unique adaptations of Kratos and Atreus reflect their journeys in the God of War series, and we think fans will truly enjoy what we’ve created.”

The collaboration features two distinct Kratos cards along with an Atreus card. Fans of The Last of Us will be delighted to find cards for Joel, Ellie, and Abby, while Nathan Drake from Uncharted joins the lineup. Rounding out the collection are Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn and Jin Sakai from Ghost of Tsushima.

Neil Druckmann from Naughty Dog also shared his enthusiasm about the partnership: “We have so many longtime Magic: The Gathering fans at Naughty Dog, so working with the Wizards of the Coast team to bring these cards to life has been a fantastic experience.”
