Next release: Icons 2027 Edition

November 20, 2026 is the announced release date—even though the product name says 2027. Icons is a smaller set built around familiar characters and approachable mechanics, with cards aimed at established players as well as newcomers.

Which Icons product should you watch?

If you are teaching a friend, the Starter Box is the clearest place to begin. Its two decks start at 30 cards, then grow through fixed deckbuilding packs across four learning games. It also includes two randomized Icons boosters. That makes it a different experience from opening boosters or picking up a full-size Spotlight Deck.

If you already play, compare the card reveals with the decks you actually want to build before deciding how much sealed product to buy. The 4-Pack’s variant is a specific extra; random boosters still do not guarantee the cards on your wish list.
