Earlier today, the German Dominaria product page leaked an image of the Guilds of Ravnica buy-a-box promo and the set's booster box. If you look on the side of the booster box, you'd notice that the text Magic: The GatheringPortal is advertised, and many fans online are wondering what it is.

Not to be confused with the 1997 Magic Starter set with a similar name, the Magic: The Gathering Portal is actually the official companion app that was announced earlier this year, and it's capable of tracking life and counters, looking up rules, managing and inviting friends to home tournaments, and so much more.

Check out the list of features from WOTC below:

Create, manage, and track home tournaments complete with pairings, invitations for friends, brackets, and playgroup stats. Want to run a massive Commander play-day at home? We've got you covered. Itching to test out eight Modern or Standard decks with friends? Set up a tournament, invite friends, and keep track of the results. All from your phone.
Look up card information on the fly, including searchable rules databases for card rulings, keywords, and mechanics, all streamlined for showing your friends that, yes, Fungusaur is indeed a Dinosaur now.
Keep track of life totals as well as wins and losses across multiple devices to show just how you stack up against your friends. Think you're the best in your playgroup? Find out. Looking to improve your record over time? Watch as those 1-2 records turn into 3-0s. Or just claim bragging rights when you finally grab your playgroup's win-loss crown from the local ringer.
Stay up-to-date on Magic news with a customizable hub. You can focus your feed to read just about what you want—whether that's news from the very people who make the game, updates to the official Magic story, or results from the latest Pro Tour. As much or as little news as you like will be right there at your fingertips.
Keep in touch with your playgroup through social linking that lets you invite friends to events, simultaneously track life totals, and manage a friend list.
Learn more about Magic through access to video tutorials, glossaries, and rule lookups. New players can learn together, and experienced players can settle rules disputes with a flip of their phone.

The Magic: The Gathering Portal is expected to be released later this year.

Guilds of Ravnica will be released on October 5.
