Today, amidst the hype around Adventures in the Forgotten Realms previews, Wizards of the Coast released their latest announcements for the MTG Arena client. Preorders have begun for Adventures in the Forgotten realms- the full details for all of the preorder bundles are available below.
In addition, Wizards officially announced all of the card changes for the Mirror, Mirror event, where cards that have been banned from Historic are rebalanced to make them more fair- although all of the changes had been datamined from the client previously.
Meanwhile, the Chromatic Cube event is ongoing, so be sure to check out our guide for the event if you haven’t already.
Lastly, Wizards has announced that the next State of the Game article will be published this Friday, July 2, and has published an updated event calendar for everything that’s coming up in MTG: Arena. The full text of Wizard’s announcement can be found below:
Preorders Available Now for Adventures in the Forgotten Realms!
Preorders have begun for Adventures in the Forgotten Realms, the Magic and Dungeons & Dragons crossover set players have been waiting for! Bundles will be available to purchase in the MTG Arena Store.

July 3–6, step through the looking glass into an alternate realitywhere Oko, Thief of Crowns is just another great Historic card or Teferi, Time Raveler is more of a friend than foe to the format . . .
Given that MTG Arena is a digital expression of Magic, we want to experiment with some of the advantages only digital Magic can offer. Mirror, Mirror opens a portal to a Historic event in which twelve banned cards have been rebalanced, allowing you to play with those versions instead.
This event is All Access, meaning all cards are available for you to build your deck—even if they’re not in your collection!
The rebalanced cards will have the MTG Arena “A” logo before their names. Note that this logo is the mythic-rare-colored version on all these cards and is independent of the card’s actual rarity.
In exported decklists, these cards will appear with “A-” at the beginning of the card name. If you want to import a deck that uses these rebalanced cards, be sure to include the “A-” before the card name as well.
You can find these cards by using the advanced search command “set:ANC” in the deckbuilder.
Rebalanced cards cannot be crafted or otherwise added to your collection.
Ability allows you to “look at the top four cards of your library” instead of the top six.
