What potential would a Magic: the Gathering chapter have for DbD?
Throughout the decade of collaborations and licenses DbD has obtained and worked with over the years, the games and licensing have evolved drastically. It started off with horror films... then evolved into horror-adjacent properties to grimdark anime/manga. So where would Magic: the Gathering fit into this?
Magic the Gathering is one of the big three of TCGs (alongside Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh!) that has a deep, rich tapestry of history inspired by the cultures and ideas around the world, having its own unique identity built upon a series of worlds known as Planes. As a result, there is a lot of material to pull from this IP for a potential chapter that could fit into the world of DbD if done well. In addition to this, the owners of Magic Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro also own the Dungeons and Dragons IP, who BHVR collaborated with to release the Dungeons and Dragons Chapter that had OG Vecna. So it's not like another collaboration with them isn't impossible especially since that Chapter was surprisingly very well-received despite it not being a traditional horror IP.
Now the question remains... what potential is there for a Magic: the Gathering Chapter and how much demand would there be in the community for one? Personally, I think there is a huge potential for the Chapter but I don't think the demand is as huge for it compared to other possible licenses to make into a Chapter.
