The set is available for preorder now at local game stores, online retailers like Amazon, and elsewhere Magic products are sold.

What can Magic the Gathering fans expect in new Final Fantasy set?

This upcoming set features the largest collection of Final Fantasy artwork ever in a single game, drawing from across the franchise. Magic artists have brought moments from Final Fantasy to life in their own unique style while classic Final Fantasy art pieces make appearances on these epic cards.

Fans will see their favorite stories, characters and moments from Final Fantasy depicted across Magic cards, with these icons of the series captured on over 100 legendary creature cards across the entire release.

Magic The Gathering – Final Fantasy features a host of special mechanics and content inspired by the rich world and incredible creatures beloved by fans worldwide.

Special features include:

  • Saga Creatures – Summons are making an appearance in this set, as part of Magic The Gathering’s first-ever Saga creatures. Players can call the summons for aid in battle.
  • Double-Faced Cards – Double-faced cards return in Magic The Gathering – Final Fantasy. By casting the front side of the card for its mana cost and fulfilling its required conditions, players can transform it to experience its alternate form! Iconic Final Fantasy characters, minigames, story moments, and more are represented on double-faced cards throughout the set.
  • More To Come – Many of the special mechanics featured in the Magic The Gathering – Final Fantasy set are yet to be revealed. Stay tuned for more information.

The Final Fantasy artwork truly shines in a series of Borderless Cards. Borderless Character Cards feature 55 legendary characters with eye-popping backgrounds, while Borderless Woodblock Cards are inspired by traditional Japanese woodblock paintings and feature intricate artwork of the summons. There are also Borderless Final Fantasy Artist cards featuring fan-favorite artists from the history of the series.

Wait! There’s more!

Finally, as a celebration of this incredible collaboration, Final Fantasy Through the Ages showcases iconic Magic cards with Final Fantasy artwork. These cards form a Bonus Sheet for the set featuring existing artwork from the Final Fantasy series, which highlights artists such as Yoshitaka Amano and Tetsuya Nomura, names that Final Fantasy fans will surely recognize.

Each Commander deck for Magic The Gathering – Final Fantasy tells the story of an individual game from the franchise, letting you relive playing Final Fantasy VI, Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy X, and Final Fantasy XIV in a brand-new way.

Wizards of the Coast will also be releasing three Secret Lair drops alongside this set to capture the worlds of Final Fantasy in Secret Lair’s always iconic, always stunning style. More details will be available closer to the set’s release.

Additionally, Wizards of the Coast will have more to share about a special holiday release for Magic The Gathering – Final Fantasy later this year.

Fans can preorder Magic The Gathering – Final Fantasy products now, including Play Boosters, Collector Boosters, Commander decks, Collector’s Edition Commander decks, Bundles, and Gift Edition Bundles.
