"Without that passion for the IP, you're not going to really deliver a product that's going to feel authentic and resonate with the fans. The fans go very deep on some of our IP and they know when it's not authentic." Eugene Evans (senior vice president of digital licensing at Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast) talks to GamesIndustry.Biz about Hasbro's "all-in" digital strategy. #ThoughtLeadership #Gaming #DigitalGaming #MobileGaming #IP

ICYMI: Ken Troop (Global Play Leader for MAGIC) and Rebecca A. (VP of MAGIC franchise) spoke to Bloomberg and shared their thoughts on bringing new players to MAGIC: THE GATHERING. 🎨 “Think of MAGIC as a canvas...MAGIC IP is one of the things we can put on that canvas, but we can put other things on it," says Ken. Rebecca, on Universes Beyond: “It gives you the opportunity to play your favorite mechanics, or whatever it is that draws you to MAGIC, but with a slightly different character experience."✨ Last week, the team unveiled the first MAGIC: THE GATHERING cards that will be based on Marvel Entertainment’s fan-favorite characters and epic stories - coming November 4 to Secret Lair: https://lnkd.in/gKD967q5 This Superdrop will be followed in 2025 by a Universes Beyond tentpole set based on Marvel’s Spider-Man. Exciting stuff! Read more below in Bloomberg (subscription required). #MagicTheGathering #Marvel #ThoughtLeadership #TCG
