The Gathering' is taking its next big risk: a full-on leap into science fiction. A certain Star franchise may have boldly declared space the final frontier, but for Magic: The Gathering, it’s only the beginning.

Edge of Eternities also sees reprints of the highly requested and sought-after Shock Lands - special dual-colored lands. These lands will allow you to tap for one of two colors of mana, and while similar cards normally come in tapped, by taking a little damage, Shock Lands will enter untapped, meaning you can use them right away!

Magic: The Gathering is venturing into a new genre with the science fantasy set Edge of Eternities, a space opera set in a rich world featuring a holy war, the return of the Eldrazi, and spaceships that can travel through the planets of the Sothera system.
