Wilds of Eldraine
Wilds of Eldraine is the first MTG Standard-legal set for the 2023-2024 season, and it’s the first set to drop into the new Standard rotation going forward. A “First Look” at the upcoming Magic set took place at MagicCon Barcelona, announcing unique anime art cards and featuring a Planeswalker who didn’t lose their Spark.
The MTG Wilds of Eldraine set is scheduled to have a digital launch on Sept. 5 and a global release on Sept. 8. Prerelease events start on Sept. 1.

Included within the Lost Cavers on Ixalan as booster inserts, much like Transformers were included in The Brothers’ War, are Universe Beyond cards showcasing the Jurassic World Franchise. All Jurassic World cards are legal to play in Eternal formats like Commander, Vintage, Legacy, and Pauper. Fans can get their hands on these unique cards within the Lost Caverns of Ixalan set launches globally during the month of November.

Fallout
In collaboration with Bethesda Softworks and WotC, players can enjoy Fallout through themed Commander preconstructed decks, much like the Warhammer 40,000 and Doctor Who Commander decks. The Commander Precon decks showcasing Fallout raiders, mutants, and monsters are slated to release in March 2024.
