MTG’s Reality Fracture is breaking the rules of Magic in one clever way

As part of MagicCon: Las Vegas, Wizards of the Coast revealed a first look at Reality Fracture, the upcomingMagic: The Gathering set releasing on October 2, 2026 that’s set to tie-up the game’s current storyline. In Reality Fracture, The Planeswalker Jace Beleren, now calling himself The Theorist, has created the Echoverse in an attempt to undo the suffering caused by the Phyrexians and the Eldrazi. Part of that scheme involves making new versions of many of Magic’s most iconic characters.
