Magic the Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons along with the other iconic games like Monopoly and Clue account for $2.5 billion dollars in revenue for Hasbro. That’s a massive amount of revenue. So no, I don’t think Magic will suffer as much as an investment even when the secondary market becomes stagnant.

The only problem with Magic as it stand now is that despite its loyal following of millions of players worldwide, the game has still never found its way to the mainstream public. I’m excited for the recent Magic the Gathering series being developed for Netflix by the Russo brothers, who directed the latest Captain America and Avengers movies. That’s a huge production by some of the best in the industry, so they clearly see the potential. The pandemic might probably put that on hold, so there’s something that I’ve been keeping my eye on. Still I only see this as a minor bump on the road. I still think that the market for it as a whole will remain healthy.
