Magic: The Gathering – Innistrad Remastered (release date: January 24, 2025)
Innistrad Remastered will bring everything that Magic fans love about this gothic horror setting into one curated, draftable set.
Aetherdrift (release date: February 14, 2025)
Aetherdrift is a high-speed, high-stakes death race across three different planes. Magic players can choose their racer with ten two-color-aligned teams—from goblins to insects—as they fight for the finish line and chance to win the coveted trophy, the Aetherspark.
Tarkir: Dragonstorm (release date: April 4, 2025)
Players will return to the beloved world of Tarkir with Tarkir: Dragonstorm. Building from Magic's original visit to the plane, Tarkir: Dragonstorm will deliver on two important elements: factionalized clans and gameplay and Dragons now reborn. Dragons are pouring out through Dragonstorms all over Tarkir, and players will see the return of Sarkhan and Ugin.
Magic: The Gathering – Final Fantasy (release date: June 13, 2025)
The beloved Final Fantasy series comes to Magic: The Gathering as a tentpole booster release on June 13, 2025. The set will encompass each main Final Fantasy game that has been released to date, from the original Final Fantasy to the recently released Final Fantasy XVI. The set will also be available to play digitally on Magic: The Gathering Arena.
Edge of Eternities (release date: August 1, 2025)
In August, players will visit The Edge, a science fantasy setting that sits outside of the Multiverse, bordering the entirety of the Blind Eternities. In the Edge, there are stars of mana and aether, worlds that orbit them, and spaceships that travel between solar systems. Edge of Eternities follows a team of salvagers as they explore Sothera, a galaxy that is centered around a slowly collapsing star.
Magic: The Gathering | Marvel's Spider-Man (2025)
In 2025, Universes Beyond brings Marvel's Spider-Man to Magic: The Gathering. Magic: The Gathering | Marvel's Spider-Man will be the first tentpole booster set to release in a multi-year collaboration with Marvel.
TBA Universes Beyond release (2025)
