One of the most thrilling trading card crossovers in recent years is just around the corner. The highly anticipated Magic: The Gathering and Final Fantasy collaboration is set to release on June 13, 2025. Currently, the only set widely available from major retailers is the Starter Kit, which is now back in stock and ready for preorder at Amazon for just $19.87. UK readers can also secure their copy for £15.99.

With other sets already sold out and some individual cards fetching over $500, securing your preorder is advisable before it disappears quicker than a Chocobo on the run.

TCG Player is an excellent resource for acquiring a broad range of single cards, allowing you to enhance your deck without relying on luck from booster packs. It's also a valuable tool for assessing the value of your cards once the new set is released. If you pull any Surge Foil cards from your booster pack preorders, you could find yourself with a significant asset. However, remember that prices can fluctuate, so some cards might change in value as the release date approaches.

Other highlights to watch for when opening boosters or considering standalone purchases include the Cloud, Ex-Soldier Commander card, priced at $45.99. This card is particularly popular due to its ability to equip other creatures in play.

Special cards can be particularly pricey. Alongside the $599 Cloud, Midgar Mercenary card, the borderless Traveling Chocobo card is listed at $169.98, with the standard version still commanding a high price of $114.97.

You can also purchase the new Traveling Chocobo cards, which were highlighted in their own teaser trailer featuring a limited edition Gold Chocobo.

Moreover, TCG Player is also offering preorders for select Final Fantasy booster sets, although prices are above MSRP. The nine-booster Final Fantasy bundle (plus bonus cards) is available for $87.99, and the 30-pack Play Booster Display box costs $164.99, both plus shipping. Single sealed boosters are also available for $7.99 each, plus shipping.

For those preordering the Starter Kit today, it's important to know that each deck in the set is preconstructed and does not include boosters. Instead, it contains one traditional foil legendary creature, five brand-new non-foil cards debuting in Magic, and 54 cards from the main set.

For new Magic: The Gathering players, the Arena code cards are particularly beneficial. You can redeem both decks to play online, allowing you to learn the game at your own pace through AI matches or competitive play.
