The next upcoming set, Lorwyn Eclipsed, comes out on January 23rd, with Prerelease events happening a week prior! As such, the set's preview season has kicked off today. And, boy howdy, we have a whole bunch of cards to show you today! So, let's not waste any time; here are the reveals from today's WeeklyMTG stream on Twitch!

But First...

Let's spend a bit of time admiring a special collaboration between Wizards of the Coast and the Jim Henson Company. The latter has crafted a special music video to showcase the central tenets of the plane of Lorwyn and its dark mirror, Shadowmoor. Please feel free to give the video, shown below, a watch, if you feel so inclined!

And Now, Cards!

Wizards of the Coast has provided a brief press release blurb for Lorwyn Eclipsed:

Step into the day and bask in the moonlight when Lorwyn Eclipsed arrives on January 23, 2026! We're returning to the idyllic plane of Lorwyn-Shadowmoor, where pastoral creatures transform with the changing of the landscape. You can prepare for your own journey into this ever-shifting realm with our guide to collecting Lorwyn Eclipsed! The future looks bright (or dark, if you're in Shadowmoor.)

With that, let's look at some of the cards revealed today during WeekyMTG:
