Magic: The Gathering Fans Could Be Going on an Adventure When 2026’s Third UB Set Arrives

A key idea behind the ‘Universes Beyond’ product line is to feature popular franchises that have upcoming releases, like movies, games, or new merchandise. Yesterday, on Hobbit Day, Wizards of the Coast shared a new animated video on Twitter wishing Bilbo Baggins a happy birthday. While seemingly a simple birthday greeting, the video includes original artwork not seen in the Magic: The Gathering Lord of the Rings set. Notably, the video ends with a shot of runes on the door of Bilbo’s house – runes Gandalf carved for the dwarves before the story of The Hobbit begins.
