FIRST LOOK AT EDGE OF ETERNITIES
In a special preview, fans will venture beyond the planes of Magic: The Gathering to the Edge of Eternities, Magic’s take on an adventure-filled science-fantasy space opera set. Players will discover new space-fantasy themed cards and mechanics, spacecraft Commanders, and stunning new collectibles while they explore the Edge, where vast interstellar powers marshal great forces as they attempt to command the stars. Players will find magic among these stars as they chart a course through the Sothera system to explore distant planets, wield dazzling magic, and wage war with alien factions. Edge of Eternities will launch on August 1.
FIRST DETAILS ON MAGIC’S 2026 SETS
Next year Magic: The Gathering will return to not one, but two, fan favorite planes. MagicCon attendees got their first glimpse of Lorwyn Eclipsed, launching January 23, 2026. In addition to this major unveiling, Magic will also be returning to Strixhaven in Secrets of Strixhaven.
INTRODUCING PICK-TWO DRAFT: A NEW WAY TO PLAY
There’s a new way to draft, and it’s coming to Magic sooner than fans think. Pick-Two Draft is a new draft experience for Magic: The Gathering —fast to start, quick to finish, and nonstop fun in between. This new format is all about less waiting, more playing: sit with friends, grab two cards a pass, and launch straight into the first match long before an eight-person pod settles in.
