WotC has also printed numerous multiplayer sets like Planechase and Conspiracy, which aren’t included in the Standard rotation. Outside of those core and expansion sets, Wizards of the Coast has also introduced some sets that were meant to stay outside of the standard rotation like Modern Horizons, which reprinted cards regularly used in Eternal formats like Modern. There are also 87 “expansion” sets to the game, including the most recently released Strixhaven: School of Mages set that dropped in April.ĭungeons & Dragons: Adventures in the Forgotten Realms will be the 88th expansion set for MTG, coming in July. The 28-year-old card game has 21 “core” sets. Magic: The Gathering is the longest standing and most established trading card game with sets of cards being released as early as 1993.
