Magic: The Gathering’s Final Fantasy crossover set launches today, fully restocked at major retailers

Even if you’re not invested in Wizards of the Coast’s long-running card game Magic: The Gathering, there’s a good chance that you, the discerning Eurogamer reader, have heard that there’s a Final Fantasy crossover set which launches today.

If you’ve been caught up in the hype, however, you’ll know that many of the products on offer have been sold out since preorders opened up in February.

Now, however, Amazon appears to have released more on launch day, meaning some Commander decks, boosters, and more are available, while one surprising retailer still has a Collector’s Edition version of at least one Commander deck.

Those in the US can also find the Starter Kit in stock right now for $19.99 at Amazon.

The latest expansion for the card game covers all sixteen mainline entries in Square Enix’s legendary series, with cards showcasing heroes, villains, spells, summons and, naturally, Chocobos.

If you are new to the game of Magic, then the new Starter Kit is a great place to get started. It includes two, ready-to-play decks, with one helmed by Sephiroth and another by Cloud.

It’s a fantastic way to learn the rules, and you and a friend can get up to speed swiftly.

So, what about that Collector’s Edition? Well, despite being sold out pretty much everywhere (despite a high asking price), HMV is offering the Revival Trance Collector’s Edition Commander deck right now, and even looks to restocked the Counter Blitz and Limit Break Collector’s Editions at the time of publication as well.
