April and July, respectively
Magic: The Gatheringis still trucking along with its “every several months” set releases, and next up on the agenda isWar of the Spark(the kinda Ravnica kinda not set) andCore 2020(which brings back the Core line after Wizards originally brought it back for 2019 in 2018: confused yet?).
For those of you who are unaware,War of the Sparkis expected to settle up a lot of the story beats from the past two Ravnica sets and will likely be Planeswalker (read: the big names ofMagiclore, usually represented with powerful hero-like Planeswalker cards) heavy. InMagic, “core” sets are an opportunity to bring back old cards without having to be beholden to a theme.
As usual all of this will hitMagic Arena, likely a week or so before the launch of the actual cards.Pre-releaseforWar of the Sparkwill be held on April 27-28 andCore 2020is set to arrive in July.
