Posted on by Leave a comment

Magic: The Gathering is back in Georgia this weekend for MagicCon: Atlanta. The convention brings together thousands of fans for a weekend-long celebration of the game, featuring live events, competitive play, immersive experiences, and exclusive reveals. During its preview panel, Wizards of the Coast unveiled new details for the first look at Nauctis: The Sunken Realm.  

Nauctis: The Sunken Realm introduces players to Nauctis, Magic’s take on an undersea plane. The set features merfolk, seals, homarids, and other aquatic creatures, along with deities who rule over the currents. As tensions bubble between two warring kingdoms, a group of unlikely heroes must rise to the occasion – or their home will be swallowed up by the seas. Adventures await under the water, and players will come face-to-face with fearsome creatures that dwell far, far from the surface. 

Nauctis: The Sunken Realm kicks off a brand-new multi-year story arc for Magic: The Gathering and releases February 5, 2027.
