Magic: the Gathering Making Controversial Change to Booster Boxes

Wizards of the Coast has announced it will be making a major change to Magic: the Gathering‘s booster boxes to start 2026, getting rid of a 17-year-long program. 2025 has been one of the biggest years ever for the beloved card game, with multiple highly anticipated sets and huge crossovers hitting the game. Magic: the Gathering‘s collaboration with Final Fantasy took the world by storm and became one of the fastest-selling sets ever, while November’s Avatar the Last: Airbender expansion has also proven to be a hit with fans. However, big changes look to be coming with 2026’s first set.
