Apparently, Rocket League and Fall Guys are being ported to Fortnite. Both games currently work on Linux, but in the future, they may require playing through Fortnite (lemmy.ml)

Reminds me of the 00s when every tabletop game got ported to the d20 system (so, ported to be d&d compatible, kinda). It's a sign of the times when a monopoly starts absorbing everything else. Magic The Gathering just had a massively successful Final Fantasy set this past summer despite there being a full separate Final Fantasy trading card game.

And a lot of the artwork from the original card game too.

I really liked the card game as well. I ain't ever gonna touch the mtg version though

I quit Magic after Rise of the Eldrazi (played since 1998 or so) and seeing all these popular IPs ported into MTG feels REALLY weird to me. I don’t like it at all, but I DO like that it gets more people playing MTG, which is a game I always loved… but also more money for Wizards, who are fucking evil.
