The Final Fantasy set will boast over 100 legendary creature cards, with 55 of them being legendary borderless cards, illustrated by beloved artists from the Final Fantasy series. This set is designed to be fully draftable and Standard-legal, and it will launch alongside four preconstructed Commander decks, each themed around a different Final Fantasy game: 6, 7, 10, and 14. Each deck will contain 100 cards, blending new Final Fantasy cards with existing ones featuring new Final Fantasy art. Mark your calendars for the set's release on June 13.
