Wizards of the Coast announced today that Duels of the Planeswalkers will be released to PC users via Steam. A global community of millions of computer gamers, Steamworks will allow Wizards to tap into an existing community of gamers with their product in much the same way Xbox Live Arcade has. From a press release out of the WotC Renton, WA offices:

"Already one of the most downloaded games on Xbox LIVE® Arcade, PC gamers will now be able to experience the thrill and competition of playing Magic: The Gathering in digital form, complete with 3D graphics and animations, new ways to play and a user-friendly interface. Magic: The Gathering – Duels of the Planeswalkers brings the traditional action gamers love to a new generation, complete with a digital revamp.

Duels of the Planeswalkers players will enjoy the benefits of the Steamworks' features included in all PC versions, such as auto-updating, Steam Achievements, Leaderboards, downloadable content, ability to access from any computer, multiplayer matchmaking and more.

Pre-Sale for Duels of the Planeswalkers on Steam will begin on June 1, 2010 and will combine the core game and Expansion Pack 1 for $9.99."
