MagicCon: Chicago 2025 is underway and will continue through the weekend. As part of the larger ongoing event, Wizards of the Coast put together a preview panel for upcoming Magic: The Gathering sets. Here's what we learned today:
Tarkir: Dragonstorm
Magic: The Gathering's next set will see a return to Tarkir, one of the most beloved planes in the franchise. For this romp, the clans will each have new mechanics, but are said to maintain some functionality with the previous mechanics for the clans. This set will release on April 11, 2025.
Some highlights from this portion of the presentation include:
New cards such as Sarkhan, Dragon Ascendant, Skirmish Rhino, and Shiko, Paragon of the Way were revealed.
5 new commander decks, one for each clan, have been announced. No deck list has been revealed yet, but they will include some sought after reprints as well as new-to-Magic cards.
Siege cards make a return, starting with Barrensteppe Siege.
Final Fantasy
The debut for Final Fantasy is going to be at PAX East on May 10th.
Edge of Eternities
While we did not get any specific cards revealed for Edge of Eternities, we did get some clarification on the themes and direction of the set. This set is not only sci-fi, but will feature Magic staples like knights and pirates. This portion of the panel mostly showcased some art, so here's a look at some items:
Universes Beyond: Avatar the Last Airbender
A new set featuring Avatar: The Last Airbender will see its release later this year.
That's all for this year's preview panel! If you would like to watch the entire thing, you can find it here.
