A powerful new Planeswalker class has arrived in Magic: Legends! Today the Free-to-Play hack’n’cast online action RPG based on Magic: The Gathering released a brand new update which introduces players to the fire-wielding Pyromancer for the very first time. From now through May 24 at 10am PT, players can claim this brand-new ranged caster class for FREE from the in-game store when they log into the game.
The Pyromancer, its costume and extra spells have also been added to early levels in the free track of the current Battlepass – and will be available in every subsequent Battlepass. This will continue after the free claim period ends. Today’s update also introduces a brand-new story act that continues players’ journey through the Multiverse, performance upgrades and a host of quality-of-life updates to improve the overall gameplay experience.
