Ravensburger Reveal Details On The Future Of Disney Lorcana
Today, Ravensburger has revealed some details on the next chapter of its popular trading card game, “Disney Lorcana”, with new details on the eighth, ninth and tenth sets, which are due to be released later this year.
Ravensburger has announced investing even more in the thriving Disney Lorcana TCG community by bringing on industry leaders in the new Seattle office, focusing on supporting competitive play, and creating cool cards to collect featuring Disney franchises new to the game. The next chapter of Disney Lorcana TCG begins with the ninth set, Fabled, which is scheduled for release everywhere on September 5th, 2025.
A first look was also shared of a new collector starter set featuring a Tinkerbell promo card
Elaine Chase, Chief Marketing Officer for TCGs at Ravensburger said in a statement regarding the news:
“It is an honor to usher Disney Lorcana TCG into this exciting next chapter. I’m excited to bring my three decades of experience working on trading card games to Disney Lorcana TCG, and I’ve learned how to move from a super-hot launch to supporting a trading card game for the long haul. I can’t wait for fans to see everything we are planning!”
The Fabled set will have a lot of important new aspects to it for Disney Lorcana TCG fans. For those who love to search for stunning versions of their favorite characters, there will be two new rarities to look for in each booster pack: Iconic and Epic. Iconic cards are extremely rare with only two appearing in each set, while Epic cards will appear more often than Enchanted cards and feature special artwork and foil treatments.
Fabled will also mark the first time the game will rotate cards out of being legally available to competitive players to include in their decks. The first four sets will rotate out of the Core Constructed format, but will still be available to play in a new format, called Infinity Constructed. All fans can still play with their entire card collection, but it’s important to keep the competition fresh.
Ryan Miller, Brand Manager and Co-Designer of Disney Lorcana TCG at Ravensburger added:
“To keep the competitive game thriving, rotating out older cards to encourage new strategies and fresh deck designs is a really important part of the next chapter. But because we know there are cards in those early sets that are important to a lot of fans’ deck-building strategies, and we know not everybody got the cards they wanted the first year, we’re re-printing some cards from those first sets in Fabled. Including Enchanted versions of some fan favorites!”
Before Fabled launches in September, the ongoing story featuring Jafar from Disney’s Aladdin will culminate when Reign of Jafar, the 8th set for Disney Lorcana TCG, releases this summer. Jafar now possesses the Hexwell Crown and, with it, he has corrupted Archazia’s Island to his wicked will. Traps and illusions abound in Reign of Jafar, and glimmers like Jasmine – Steady Strategist and Rapunzel – High Climber will need to band together to steal back the crown and defeat the evil vizier. Illumineers’ Quest: Palace Heist is a new co-op experience-in-a-box that pits up to 4 players against Jafar and his minions.
The pre-release events in game stores and Disney store locations for Reign of Jafar start on May 30th while packs will be available everywhere June 6th. Pre-order Reign of Jafar at online retailers now!
While existing fans will be excited for the new cards in Reign of Jafar, there are millions of people out there who adore the incredible stories and characters Disney studios bring to life. Ravensburger wants to entice Disney fans through a new offering designed to spark the joy of collecting all the glimmers, locations and songs beautifully depicted on each Disney Lorcana card.
“The Collection Starter Set is the perfect way for Disney-lovers to jump into and start collecting cards showing off their favorite characters and moments from Disney classics. Collecting is such a huge part of every trading card game and we want to show how Disney Lorcana rewards players with every pack of cards they crack open.”
It was also announced that the Disney Lorcana World Championship will take place on June 28th & 29th. 28 of the world’s best players will compete to crown the first annual Disney Lorcana TCG World Champion.
Fans around the world can watch live on twitch.tv/DisneyLorcana to follow the action with a team of fantastic casters including Rebekah (RebekahQuests), Baker (LorcanaVillain), Liam (The Illumiteers), Brandon (Bsquared24), and JD (JDZ Quest).
Since this event won’t be available to the public, players and collections will be able to check your local game store for information on how to obtain a non-foil “A Whole New World” promo card at a later date.
It was also announced that Ravensburger will be at Gen Con 2025 for more card reveals and upcoming set previews.
