The Final Fantasy set will boast over 100 legendary creature cards, with 55 of them featuring borderless designs. These cards are illustrated by beloved artists from the Final Fantasy series, adding a special touch to the collection.
Set to launch on June 13, the Magic: The Gathering Final Fantasy set will be fully draftable and Standard-legal.

Each deck will contain 100 cards, blending new Final Fantasy cards with existing ones that have been given a fresh Final Fantasy-themed art. This set promises to be a thrilling addition to both the Magic: The Gathering and Final Fantasy universes.
