Since Lorcana's launch in 2023, we've seen its influence spread to stores across Quebec and reach Disney fans right in their homes. In 2026, Ravensburger is preparing to take another step forward by offering a new way to explore their universe through collecting. Whether you're a veteran of the First Chapter or a curious newcomer, the coming months promise to be exceptional.
Dive into the Lore: The First Official Guides
Starting February 1st, Lorcana will launch what many of you have been eagerly awaiting: the Collector's Guides. The two volumes will cover chapters 1-4 and 5-8 respectively, revealing previously untold stories and narrative connections. To complement these readings, a new 160-page notebook featuring their likeness will be released, perfect for jotting down your battle strategies or collecting autographs at conventions!
March: A Rendez-vous for Collectors
On March 13th, a new product to enrich the collector's space will arrive: the Collection Starter Set! Themed around the "Stitch" experience, the set will include the highly anticipated Stitch - Carefree Snowboarder promotional card.
On the other hand, Uncle Scrooge also gets his own set, this time in a Gift Box containing the exclusive Scrooge McDuck - S.H.U.S.H. Agent card and everything you need to stylishly store your cards.
Opening the Door to New Players
Finally, because Lorcana wants to make the experience easier for new players, May 8th will mark the release of a unique box: a starter kit for 2 players. Following a successful concept already seen in other collectible card games, this kit offers two balanced decks (Amber/Emerald vs. Amethyst/Ruby) ready to play right out of the box. It's the perfect way to introduce a friend or family member to the game!
Our Opinion
With these releases, Ravensburger demonstrates its commitment to the game's longevity by paying close attention to both the narrative aspect and accessibility for new Lorcana players. 2026 will be a year to solidify our shared passion for cards, and that's wonderful to see!
