Physical rewards are returning to Magic: The Gathering’s digital client through Arena Direct, a paid entry tournament format offering Playbooster boxes as a grand prize.
What is MTG Arena Direct?
Arena Direct is a paid entry tournament where physical cards can be earned as a grand prize reward. The MTG Arena digital client has experimented with physical rewards before, from cash through Arena Open tournaments to a Festival in a Box Convention Edtion through Chaos Draft. Much like the Chaos Draft tournaments, Arena Direct will reward players with a physical box of Playbooster cards for six wins.
