No jam-packed year of Magic releases would be complete without plenty of supplemental sets. So if four Standard sets won’t be enough to satiate your thirst for cardboard in 2022, Wizards of the Coast will have four additional sets for you to enjoy, ranging from another un-set to another Commander Legends product.
Don’t miss our coverage of today’s other news: all four of 2022’s Standard sets, Street Fighter and Fortnite Secret Lair drops, the Out of Time Superdrop, and Lord of the Rings and Warhammer 40k product details.
Unfinity
Mark Rosewater, Magic’s Head Designer, appears to have managed to sneak another un-set out the door under the noses of the powers that be at Wizards of the Coast. Unfinity, the fourth un-set and a follow up to 2017’s Unstable, is a top-down un-set that will be released in 2022.
And just what concept served as the guiding theme of this un-set? A “retro science fiction space carnival/amusement park/circus,” according to Rosewater. The set takes place at Myra the Magnificent’s Intergalactic Astrotorium of Fun, which Rosewater says is “a space carnival that travels the galaxy with rides you can’t even imagine.”
It will include “space-ic” basic lands that are full art, borderless, and are set around the planet and in space. “For the first time ever, you can have science fiction lands,” Rosewater said. “In addition to that, we’re also doing shock lands set in space.”
Unfinity will be released in the second quarter of 2022.
Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur’s Gate
Wizards will continue to mix its Dungeons and Dragons property with Magic in Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur’s Gate. It is set in the city of Baldur’s Gate and will have new legends themed as D&D characters as well as new multiplayer keywords. The rulebook showcase frame from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms will also return.
The set will build on 2020’s Commander Legends draftable Commander format. Each pack will contain 20 cards, from which you pick two at a time, to build a 60-card deck with a Commander.
Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur’s Gate is scheduled for the first half of 2022.
Jumpstart 2022
Jumpstart is returning for another round next year with Jumpstart 2022. It will include 46 themed packs of 20 cards, with themes like Eldrazi and multi-headed creatures, which you can combine to create a unique experience. Each pack will contain one card that is new to Magic as well as one anime style card.
Jumpstart 2022 will be released in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Double Masters 2022
Continuing the theme of 2022 iterations of 2020 products, Wizards is doing second take on 2020’s Double Masters, aptly named Double Masters 2022. It will retain the two rares and two foils per pack shtick and will feature a multicolored draft environment.
Double Masters 2022 will release in the Summer of 2022.
