Cynthia Williams made the announcement live during Hasbro’s Investor Day 2022 presentation that Final fantasy and assassin creed are upcoming in universe beyond.
knowing final fantasy, two of the legends are clearly gonna be cloud and sephiroth
I don't really care about this kind of product, but I feel like if the FF cards aren't somehow connected to Triple Triad, they'll have really missed the mark.
Best case scenario, we'll get Cloud, Black Mage, at least one Summon (probably Shiva/Ifrit, Bahamut also likely), a Moogle and a Chocobo.
Most likely scenario, it's the FF7 crew plus Sephiroth all over again, and the bonus card will be a reskin of a mana rock called "Green Materia".
As for Assassin's Creed, I personally think there's some cool potential for new material there, but considering how AC borrows a lot from "real" history (can't stress enough how important those quotation marks are here) and how usually WotC operates I expect something more akin to the Fortnite SL.

A creative idea that sadly will definitely not happen considering how creatively bankrupt Square Enix is.

I'm keen on a FF lair but not even sure what Triple Triad is...

Triple Triad is a card game they introduced in FF8 I think.
I like Final Fantasy, I lived and breathed it after playing 7 and then replaying it plenty of times, but I won't buy this. If I wanted to play an FF card game I could buy Triple Triad physical cards, play it in FF8, play the card game in 9, or buy/play the current FF card game. This doesn't interest me and shouldn't be in Magic.
Maybe Assassin's Creed might interest me if it reflects all of the bugged/broken versions of the game that were rushed out and the art is nothing but broken models. Of course it won't, but that would be funny. I will not buy this either.
The Assassin's Creed one might just be a Templar vs Assassin's Commander deck pair. Final Fantasy has enough material that they might just end up making Dissidia: the Set.
Hoping for a Gilgamesh planeswalker that is equipment related.
There's enough material for a FF set, which I think would appease a lot more people that a secret lair or 15/16.
Expecting that too, hopefully Gilgamesh is a 5 color planeswalker that can also become a creature too.
Since his a SUMMON and Sometime a playable character compare to the other SUMMON/ESPERS
I hope they managed to pull it WARCRAFT too if possible, I always wanted ARTHAS as a commander
Final Fantasy seems like place for experience counters. Assassin's Creed (from my limited experience) almost begs for sagas and transform. Very interested to see what actually occurs.

I’m not invested in Assassin’s creed but I would buy an orzhov or esper assassin tribal commander deck in a heartbeat.
What I fear will end up happening instead, however, is a continuation of the Legends Retold and the Trnasformers cards in Brother’s war: bringing in 15-20 new legends from a different series with every new premier set and giving them out in collector packs.
The FF one I figured would come. I'm gathering we'll see cards for
Cloud
Cecil?
Rosa
(I hope Rydia!)
Terra
Edgar and/or Sabin
Tifa
Aerith
Maybe Squall
Kefka
Sephiroth
And random FF-style magic spells (Mega Flare because Flare is already a thing)

Class card.
Finally a good white villain quote: "So, do I ever re-evaluate my life choices? Never, because I know what I'm doing is a righteous cause."
