Wizards of the Coast’s popular trading card game enters the next phase of its video game version Magic: The Gathering Arena in its latest version.
The new beta aims to showcase the complete game, as the developers want to gather more feedback. The team is now inviting an additional 100,000 players to check out the test version. However, this is not yet an open beta.
You still need to register on the official website to have the chance to participate.

Magic: The Gathering as you know it
Magic: The Gathering Arena aims to offer you an “authentic” gaming experience of the popular card game. You compete against other players while strategically using your cards. Over time, you collect new cards that enable you to develop further tactics. Arena has no gimmicks; it plays out just like actual duels with real cards.
The next phase of the beta offers even more features:
- New starter collections – To test new starter card collections, including 10 pre-constructed decks with over 300 unique cards, there will be a wipe.
- Amonkhet Block – The Amonkhet and Hour of Devastation cards will be introduced, allowing you new tactics.

The development continues
The developers are very eager to see how players react to the new version of Magic: The Gathering Arena and want to work on improvements and optimizations together with the testers.
