Illyana is part of the roster in the new Midnight Suns video-game. Is this her first time as a playable character in a non-mobile game?

She was also mentioned in X-Men Legends as an NPC.

According to Jake Solomon, Midnight Suns' creative director at Firaxis Games, Magik from the X-Men and Nico Minoru from the Runaways are just two of the heroes in the game he's most looking forward to introducing to MCU fans. While neither character was featured in the original Rise of the Midnight Sons storyline (Nico wasn't even created until 2003 in Runaways #1 by Brian K. Vaughan and Adrian Alphona), Solomon and his team are taking the opportunity to introduce even more characters in their unique adaptation of the classic cross-over event. "I’m particularly excited for players to get the chance to learn about Magik," Solomon says. "who is one of my favorite Marvel heroes."

This is a good chance she can interract with Strange in the MCU.

Rumors around Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness are that Wanda will fight a non-MCU character from the Fox-verse, which naturally leads to speculation it'll be Magik since it's a movie about magic and sorcerers. The other possibilities being raised are Magneto - her father, and Jean as the Phoenix as part of the 'multiverse' shenanigans.

Cool that Magik is in the game. Great that it will be on all platforms.

She'd get too bored.

What I found interesting about Illyana is after growing up in the horrible environment of Limbo she became a very responsible user of magic.

Do you guys think because she was partially raised by Storm and Cat? Inmate goodness?

I thought about this after seeing an evil Dr. Strange basically murder a lot of demons and magical beings and absorb their power into him so he could resurrect his girlfriend and destroy the universe in the process.
