Magic: The Gathering has revealed several cards from the game's upcoming collaboration with Marvel, featuring a plethora of the multimedia juggernaut's most iconic characters. The beloved trading card game has featured a wide variety of franchises within both its "Secret Lair" series of cards and as full booster sets, including media properties like Assassin's Creed and Fallout. Exclusive cards from the crossovers often command high price tags, like the one-of-a-kind "The One Ring" from the Lord of the Rings collaboration. Now, another set of fan-favorites is coming to the card game.
With a rich history of its "Universes Beyond" collaborations, Magic: The Gathering has already teased multiple franchises set to join the card game. Wizards of the Coast first announced the Marvel collaboration in late 2023, confirming that several Marvel heroes would make their way to the TCG. The Magic: The Gathering developer has also confirmed a crossover with Final Fantasy is in the works, expected to launch sometime in 2025. The next "Universes Beyond" has now been officially revealed with multiple Marvel Magic: The Gathering cards shown.

The card game titan also surprised fans earlier this year with a new Secret Lair drop featuring Magic: the Gathering cards based on Hatsune Miku.
