GTA5 nearly had story DLC that made Trevor a 007-style spy – until it was cancelled and turned into a GTA Online heist
5:18 pm
As a somewhat deflating example of the money-churning might of GTA Online becoming the sole focus of Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto 5 efforts over the last decade, the actor who played Trevor in the ridiculously well-selling crime epic has teased some details of planned story DLC that would have turned the controversial protagonist into a James Bond-style spy. The pack supposedly got as far as shooting with the actors, only to end up cancelled and folded into a GTA Online heist.
All Magic: The Gathering sets in 2024: MTG 2024 release schedule and sets explained
5:08 pm
Thereâs never been a better time for Magic: The Gathering players who canât get enough of collecting cards.
The gameâs 2024 schedule is so packed with releases that only the most dedicated fans have any hope of keeping up. Whether you like to play Modern, Standard, Commander, or even Pioneer, thereâs going to be something for everyone this years, which is why it’s such a good time to get into Magic. That said, unless you want to dump your life savings into cards, itâs best to know what you’re getting into before you start buying boosters. Hereâs what this yearâs release schedule looks like:
Ravnica Remastered: January 12th, 2024
Murders at Karlov Manor: February 9th, 2024
Fallout: March 8th, 2024
Outlaws of Thunder Junction: April 19th, 2024
Modern Horizons 3: June 14th, 2024
Assassinâs Creed: July 5th, 2024
Bloomburrow: August 2nd, 2024
Duskmourn: House of Horror: Q3 2024
Pioneer Masters: Q4 2024
Whatâs in the box?
Thereâs almost a new Magic set for every month in 2024. Things slow down a little toward the end of the year, but for the most part weâre charging right ahead all year long. Of course, not every set is designed for every kind of player. Theyâre each tailor-made for specific formats, and some of this yearâs releases are clearly aimed at either appealing to longtime fans or drawing in new players whoâve never thought to pick up Magic before now.
Ravnica Remasteredis a set entirely dedicated to the classic MTG setting and is made up of reprints from previous sets that took place in the sprawling city. Ravnica has long been my favorite Magic setting, and the awesome cards remastered here helped remind me why that is.
Piggy-backing off of Ravnica Remastered comes Murders at Karlov Manor, a 286-card set themed around an investigation in a bloody mansion deep in the heart of the city. The set was released alongside a Ravnica-themed edition of the board game Clue.Â
Under its Universes Beyond label, Magic released four Fallout-themed Commander decks and Collector Boosters in March, 2024. The set translated the craziest characters and items from across the Fallout franchise into Magic-friendly mechanics, letting us all finally answer if a group of Powder Ganger could take on the Mothman.Â
Outlaws of Thunder Junction brings a western setting to Magic for the first time. The set appropriately features special newspaper and crime Sorcery cards that help the flavor of Thunder Junction sink into the setâs mechanics. It also brings a slew of new villainous characters into the game, making its wild west feel packed with intrigue.
Modern is the most expansive Magic format, and Modern Horizons 3 will provide a whole new toolbox for deck builders to experiment with. The set brings some new cards to the format and also reprints some classic cards to inject some new life into the Modern meta.
The second Universes Beyond set of the year brings the world of Assassinâs Creedto your card table. The set brings in some of your favorite characters from the games, like Ezio Auditore da Firenze, as well as historical figures like Leonardo da Vinci. You canât bring the cards to Standard tournaments, but you can use them to pit assassins against Brotherhood of Steel Knights, and thatâs about as cool as it gets.Â
Stylistically, Bloomburrowmight be the most interesting set that Magic has released in years. The realm of Bloomburrow is home only to animals, and itâs a place where even the tiniest mouse living in the woods can become an epic hero. The cards show off tiny yet fearsome creatures duking it out in some stunning nature scenes, and some special full art and storybook art cards will really let the setting shine.
Like Murders at Karlov Manor, Duskmourn: House of Horroris another theme-heavy set. Duskmourn takes place in a haunted house and is meant to evoke the vibes of â70s and â80s horror films. Thanks to settings like Ravnic and Innistrad, Magic has always been a little spooky, but Duskmourn looks like an entirely different beast. Thereâs not a firm release date for the set yet, but itâll likely come out right around Halloween.
The last Magic release of the year is a digital-only set aimed at Magic: The Gathering Arena players. Pioneer Masters will be a set of reprints meant for the Pioneer format, which includes everything from Return to Ravnica forward. The set has been floating around the ether for a long time â it was originally supposed to come out back in 2020 â and should help promote the format on Arena.
