Magic: The Gathering is Heading to A New Plane After War of the Spark


Wizards of the Coast

Following Guilds of Ravnica and Ravnica Allegiance, the upcoming War of the Spark set will be the third consecutive Magic: The Gathering set that's set in the world of Ravnica but what about the new set coming this Fall? Where will its story take place? Well, according to Magic head designer Mark Rosewater, the set after Core Set 2020 will be visiting a brand-new plane but he didn't reveal what it is yet.

Here's his full response on Wizards of the Coast's article:

"After War of the Spark is Core Set 2020. Then in October, we're going to be visiting a brand-new plane. I can't tell you anything about it yet as we're a little too far out from it, but I can say it's a set I've been trying to get us to do for over a decade, and I'm really excited about how it turned out."

That's great to hear that Rosewater is excited for the upcoming set and the fact that they've been trying to do it for over a decade must mean a lot. After all, earlier this year, he said that he's excited for three new Magic sets coming this year, and that set is definitely one of them.

Where do you think it will be set? Jace's homeplane, Vryn or some place we've never heard of before?

War of the Spark will be released on May 3, 2019, and it's said to focus on the epic war between Nicol Bolas and the Gatewatch
