One of the most thrilling trading card crossovers in recent years is almost upon us. The much-anticipated Magic: The Gathering Final Fantasy set is set to launch on June 13, 2025. With demand soaring, the only product still readily available from major retailers is the Starter Kit, which is now back in stock and available for pre-order at Amazon for $19.87. UK readers can secure theirs for £15.99. Given that other sets are sold out and some individual cards are fetching over $500, it's wise to secure your pre-order before they disappear quicker than a Chocobo on the run.

The excitement for this set has been building since its announcement, and a new trailer has only intensified the anticipation. The singles market is seeing exceptionally high prices, with the borderless version of Cloud, Midgar Mercenary, priced at $147.23, and the Surge Foil version commanding an impressive $599, making it the priciest card in the set.

For those who have already preordered or are on the lookout for rare singles, there are several standout cards to watch in the coming weeks. One highlight is the stunning borderless Kefka, Court Mage, featured in the new MTG teaser trailer from PAX East, illustrated by the legendary Final Fantasy artist, Yoshitaka Amano.

TCG Player is an excellent resource for acquiring a wide range of single cards to enhance your deck without relying on luck from booster packs. It also provides valuable insights into card values post-release, which can be crucial if you pull any Surge Foil cards from your preordered booster packs, potentially turning them into a significant asset. Remember, prices fluctuate, so keep an eye on them as the release approaches.

Other notable cards to watch out for include the Cloud, Ex-Soldier Commander card, priced at $45.99, which is popular due to its ability to equip other creatures on the field. The full-art version of Yuffie Kisaragi - Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow, is just under $100, valued for its use as a Commander and its rarity, reminiscent of the iconic late '90s FF7 art style.

The special cards can be particularly expensive. The Traveling Chocobo card, with its borderless version costing $169.98, and the standard version at $114.97, are prime examples. The Traveling Chocobo cards even had their own teaser trailer featuring a limited edition Gold Chocobo.

While the rarest cards can be costly, TCG Player offers many singles at more affordable prices, such as Sazh's Chocobo for $1.96, Tonberry for $2.49, Summon: Shiva for $1.56, and Gladiolus Amicitia for just 33 cents.

Moreover, TCG Player is hosting preorders for select Final Fantasy booster sets, albeit at prices above MSRP. Options include a nine-booster Final Fantasy bundle (plus bonus cards) for $87.99 and a 30-pack Play Booster Display box for $164.99, both plus shipping. Single sealed boosters are available for $7.99 each, plus shipping.

For those preordering the Starter Kit, it's important to note that each deck is preconstructed and does not include boosters. Instead, it comes with one traditional foil legendary creature, five brand-new non-foil cards debuting in Magic, and 54 cards from the main set. The kit also includes four non-foil double-sided tokens, two MTG Arena code cards (one per deck), and two deck boxes, offering substantial value for the $20 price tag.

For new Magic: The Gathering players, the Arena code cards are particularly beneficial, allowing you to redeem both decks for online play and learn the game through AI matches or competitive play at your own pace.
