Wizards of the Coast recently announcedJumpstart, an upcoming Magic: The Gathering product that introduces a new way to play Magic: Players open two Jumpstart booster packs, shuffle them together, and play. Each pack of Jumpstart contains 20 cards that fit a theme, and although WotC hasn't announced all the themes featured in Jumpstart, the publisher confirmed and hinted some of them in the official announcement and the stream.
Here are all the Jumpstart themes mentioned so far (via Redditor spaceydjames):
