Collecting Reality Fracture

Frustrated by endless conflict across the planes, Jace Beleren has decided to reshape existence into a controlled alternative known as the Echoverse. His former companions must join forces alongside an old ally to prevent this new reality from overrunning their own universe. The narrative unfolds across a ten-part story series concluding shortly before the set arrives in stores.

The tabletop set launches globally on October 2, 2026, following in-store prerelease events starting September 25. Digital players can access the release on MTG Arena starting September 29. Products include standard Play Boosters, Collector Boosters, dedicated Commander decks, and a new bundle product.

The top collectible in the set is a serialized version of Bloodline Recollector, a card that mirrors classic powerful spells by converting life totals into massive card advantage. Limited to exactly 500 copies printed in English, these double rainbow foil cards utilize a throwback full-art frame illustrated by Mark Poole. They can only be found inside Collector Boosters.

Alternate reality designs return via shattered mirror cards, showing reimagined versions of iconic cards like Stingcaster Mage. These appear in non-foil across all booster types, while a distinct facet foil version is exclusive to Collector Boosters. Additionally, Japan Showcase treatments bring specialized artwork and frames to select cards, including fracture foil versions.

A core mechanic of the set's artistic design is echoed pairs, matching classic Multiverse characters with their mirrored Echoverse counterparts. Players opening packs will find matched cards showing opposing depictions of legendary figures like Chandra, Ajani, and Karn. These paired designs appear in standard frames as well as two-card connected borderless treatments.

The Special Guests offering features a 10-card panorama illustrated by Marina Banker that depicts key elements of Jace's vision. The artwork is designed to loop endlessly, allowing collectors to align cards in any order, with notable inclusions like Eye of Ugin and Flesh Duplicate. Collector Boosters contain traditional foil versions, while Play Boosters offer non-foil copies.

Wizards is introducing the Secret Lair Bundle, priced at an MSRP of $89.99. This package includes two Collector Boosters, six Play Boosters, foil basic lands, and two out of ten randomized traditional foil promo cards featuring stylized set art. This product line will continue for future main line releases.

Mana bases receive support through a cycle of rare borderless portal view lands. Building on concepts teased in previous releases, these five lands showcase the students of Hexhaven peering through to their counterparts.
