The weekly MTG Arena Announcement post has been published by Wizards of the Coast! Here’s the roundup of everything that is happening and upcoming on MTG Arena! In this edition:
Modern Horizons 3 preorders are going live tomorrow, along with the Enemy Fetch Lands Anthology Bundle for 8,000 Gems or 40,000 Gold. A bit of a step up in price compared to previous “Anthology” sets.
Wield power when Modern Horizons 3 arrives in MTG Arena on June 11! The Sorin Pack and Tamiyo Play preorder bundles will help get you started with the new set by including sleeves, cards, packs, event tokens, and more.
There’s also the Enemy Fetch Lands Anthology that will be added to your collection immediately when you purchase. These five lands will complete the full set of available enemy fetch lands in MTG Arena!
This is your second opportunity to show your skills with the latest set, Outlaws of Thunder Junction, in a tournament with serious prizes. The latest set has been out for a bit now, so you’ve seen the cards, and you’re familiar with the mechanics like plot. Are you ready to take it all the way for $2,000 and an invitation to the June Qualifier Weekend in Arena Open: Outlaws of Thunder Junction?
