June feels so far away, at least for Magic fans eagerly awaiting the upcoming Final Fantasy set. But to tide everyone over, today Wizards of the Coast just offered a first look at over a dozen never-before-seen new cards from the set, including Sephiroth, Yuffie, Cecil, Garland, Chaos, and more.
This new look includes a number of new cards and a handful of art variations, alongside the four commander cards we’ve already gotten a look at: Tidus, Cloud, Y’shtola, and Terra. In addition to various powerful legendaries like Sephiroth and Cecil, we also get a look at a new Food token art, and art variations on cards such as Stilzkin, Moogle Merchant; Sin, Spira’s Punishment; and Summon: Shiva. You can see the full gallery below:
Today’s reveal also shows off some special features of the set, including Summons, a part of Magic’s first-ever Saga creatures that players can call upon for aid in battle (see Summon: Shiva in the gallery). Additionally, double-faced cards make a return, as seen with Cecil’s two sides: Dark Knight and Redeemed Paladin.
In total, the Final Fantasy set will feature over 100 legendary creature cards, including 55 legendary borderless cards, some of which are drawn by fan-favorite artists from across Final Fantasy history.
Magic: The Gathering’s Final Fantasy set will be a fully draftable, Standard-legal set that will release alongside four preconstructed Commander decks, one themed after each of four Final Fantasy games: 6, 7, 10, and 14. Each deck consists of 100 cards, a mix of both new Final Fantasy cards, as well as existing cards with new Final Fantasy art. The set launches on June 13.
