Wizards of the Coast has officially announced Post Malone‘s collaboration with Magic: The Gathering.
The Grammy-nominated artist is teaming up with the trading card game for a year-long celebration of Friday Night Magic.

This is really a dream come true. We’ll be doing some cool stuff so keep an eye out.” Wizard of the Coast’s head of franchise marketing Nathan Stewart commented on the decision to partner with Post Malone,
“You’d be hard-pressed to find a bigger fan of Magic: The Gathering than Post Malone. As a fan for years, he knows just how much Friday Night Magic means to players. We’re thrilled to collaborate with Posty in ways that will allow his signature style, talent and love of the game to combine in ways fans will never forget.”
The partnership is expected to bring forward a series of events year-round. While the specifics of the collaboration have yet to be confirmed, fans are “gearing up for a jam-packed 2022 featuring new partnerships, bigger online experiences, and even more ways to celebrate the game they love.”
