The next two sets for Magic: The Gathering take on the flavor of a classic murder mystery with Murders at Karlov Manor, launching on Feb. 9, and Ravnica: Clue Edition, launching February 23. The sets are very deliberately inspired by the latest edition of the popular board game, Clue, which features more than a few glammed-up murderers to thirst over. Of course, in classic Magic style, these sets will instead feature several well-appointed astral sleuths as they attempt to unravel an unfortunate incident that took place on the titular Karlov estate.
The launch for Murders at Karlov Manor begins with pre-release weekend on Feb. 2, and will have all of the standard products available to pre-order in advance of its launch. — except for Draft boosters, which will be replaced by the newly designed Play Boosters. We’ve rounded up all of the available formats below along with where you can pre-order them, in addition to their contents.
