Magic: The Gathering has announced its next set, Bloomburrow, which takes players into the world of Valley where adorable animal-folk unite to face the Calamity Beasts. This nature-themed set introduces new mechanics like Gift, Offspring, and Forage, each tied to the cultural themes of the different animal-folk kindreds in Bloomburrow.

For the Common Good is a sorcery card from the set that emphasizes the unity of creatures in the forest by allowing players to create indestructible tokens that gain them life points. The mechanics in Bloomburrow are designed to match its whimsical and charming theme, with each kindred having their own unique abilities and strengths.

Players can expect to see birdfolk as honorbound knights of the air, rabbitfolk as food-obsessed cooks, batfolk as astrologers, lizardfolk as fire magic users, frogfolk as water magic users, and raccoonfolk with a knack for collecting trash. The set is not only great for new players looking to enter the world of Magic, but also for seasoned players who appreciate the creativity and personality of the cards.

Bloomburrow will be available at prerelease events starting July 26, with a digital release on Arena from July 30, and a full release on August 2. This set promises to bring a sense of nostalgia for classic animal hero stories like Watership Down and will surely appeal to players of all ages.

In addition to the new set, Wizards of the Coast is catering to new players with their Magic Made Easy tutorial video series, making it easier for beginners to learn the game and join in on the fun. Whether you’re a fan of goth squirrels or just looking for a new and exciting Magic set to explore, Bloomburrow is sure to offer something for everyone.
