If you're a fan of both Magic: The Gathering and Final Fantasy, you're in for a treat because the highly anticipated crossover between the two is almost here. Magic: The Gathering – Final Fantasy releases on June 13, and anticipation is soaring as collectors and gamers alike prepare for what promises to be one of the most exciting trading card crossovers in years.
Currently, the only set still available from major retailers is the Starter Kit, which is back in stock and available to preorder at Amazon for just $19.87. UK readers can also secure it for £15.99. Keep in mind, though, that the rest of the sets have sold out, and some singles are already commanding prices upwards of $500. If you're interested, it’s wise to lock in your preorder sooner rather than later.
Magic: The Gathering - Final Fantasy Starter Kit
Release Date: June 13, 2025
Pay Nothing Until Dispatch: $19.87 at Amazon
This set has been generating buzz ever since its announcement, and a recent trailer has only stoked the flames of excitement further. Prices in the singles market are already skyrocketing, with the borderless version of Cloud, Midgar Mercenary, currently priced at $147.23, and the Surge Foil version sitting at an impressive $599—the highest-valued card in the entire Final Fantasy set.
If you’ve already secured your preorder or are simply hunting for rare singles, there are a few standout cards you’ll want to keep an eye on in the coming weeks. One of the most stunning is the gorgeous borderless Kefka, Court Mage card, showcased in the new MTG teaser trailer from PAX East. Designed by longtime Final Fantasy artist Yoshitaka Amano, this card is already drawing attention.

Price: $78.01 at TCG Player
Other notable mentions include the Cloud, Ex-Soldier Commander card, priced at $45.99 at the time of writing. Its ease of use when equipping other creatures on the field makes it a valuable addition to any deck. Then there’s the full-art version of Yuffie Kisaragi - Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow, currently valued at just under $100. Its popularity stems from its use as a Commander and its rarity in the classic 90s Final Fantasy VII art style.
However, when it comes to the rarest cards, prices can get astronomical. The Cloud card with the Surge Foil variant remains the most expensive at $599, while the borderless Traveling Chocobo card costs $169.98, compared to the standard version at $114.97.
You can also find the new Traveling Chocobo cards, complete with their own teaser trailer featuring a limited-edition Gold Chocobo.
FINAL FANTASY - Play Booster Pack - FINAL FANTASY (FIN)
Price: $7.99 at TCG Player
Even within the realm of rare cards, there are some bargains to be found. For instance, Sazh’s Chocobo is priced at just $1.96, Tonberry at $2.49, Summon: Shiva at $1.56, and Gladiolus Amicitia at a mere 33 cents.
TCG Player is also hosting preorders for select Final Fantasy booster sets, albeit slightly above MSRP. You can find a nine-booster Final Fantasy bundle (plus bonus cards) for $87.99, a 30-pack Play Booster Display box for $164.99 plus shipping, and individual sealed boosters for $7.99 each.

Price: $19.87 at Amazon
For those who opt for the Starter Kit, it’s important to note that each deck in the set is preconstructed and does not include boosters to open (so no surprise $600 cards). Instead, it features one traditional foil legendary creature, five brand-new non-foil cards debuting in Magic, and 54 cards from the main set. Additionally, the kit includes four non-foil double-sided tokens, two MTG Arena code cards (one per deck), and two deck boxes—a fantastic value for $20.
For newcomers to Magic: The Gathering, the Arena code cards are particularly useful. They allow you to redeem both decks for online play, giving you the opportunity to learn the game at your own pace through AI matches or competitive play.

There are also plenty of other Magic: The Gathering products available for preorder or restock at Amazon, including the Edge of Eternities Commander Deck, World Shaper ($44.99), and the highly sought-after Commander Masters Set Booster Box ($369.99).
