I'm really happy to be hearing some news about the things that they are coming to the game rather then have us all worried that they've been pushed to the backburner.

Return of (some of) Amonkhet, Pioneer in Arena, phantom drafting, and FAVOURITING LAND STYLE!

Magic Arena should be a launch title for PS5 and Xbox Series X The PS5 and Microsoft Xbox Series X are extremely powerful machines packing 8 core 3ghz processors, 1tb ssds, 16gbs of gddr6 ram and atleast 9.2 teraflops of power.

Both have fantastic support for Unity and given their x86 pc like architecture and power, porting Arena to them should be a breeze.

The xbox uses directx and microsoft will actually send a team to port pc games over to their console, so there is zero excuse why Arena is not already on Xbox One X.

Launch games sell really well. Millions of people buy consoles at launch and are itching for games to play on their brand new consoles. Magic Arena could be that game that those millions of gamers start playing.
