Netflix, Hasbro Entertainment and Wizards of the Coast have unveiled the very first-look at its upcoming animated series based on the “Magic: The Gathering” tabletop card game franchise.
Titled “Planeswalker,” the series will debut sometime in 2027. “VisionQuest” and “Star Trek: Picard” alums Terry Matalas and Cindy Appel serve as executive producers and co-showrunners.
The epic fantasy saga unfolds in the world of “Magic: The Gathering” and chronicles the fierce clash between formidable mages known as Planeswalkers.
At the center of this struggle for power and survival burns Chandra, a volatile pyromancer hunted for her gifts, and haunted by her past.
Confronted by an insidious force, Chandra and some of the most legendary Planeswalkers must harness their extraordinary abilities, navigate treacherous alliances, and battle their own inner demons to prevent a cataclysmic war that threatens to consume their very existence.
As the line between victory and annihilation grows thinner, a single spark determines the fate of thousands of worlds.
Patrick Osborne, Gabriel Marano and Lauren Chavez-Myers also executive produce while Digic provides the animation.
The series was originally announced back in 2019 but hit some false starts and never got off the ground until 2024.
