Wizards of the Coast published the first Magic: The Gathering decks over 30 years ago. Since then, numerous card sets have been introduced to the collectible card game. With the introduction of Secret Lair in 2020, along with many crossover expansions, MTG has gone from a release schedule of four to five sets every year to over two dozen in 2023 alone!

Other game modes, such as Commander or Alchemy (Magic: The Gathering Arena’s exclusive game mode), have been receiving increased support from Wizards of the Coast. Sets specific to those formats have become regular releases alongside each of the standard MTG expansion sets.

Keeping up with the near-monthly releases is a job of its own. Luckily, we’ve handled most of the heavy lifting and compiled a list of every Magic: The Gathering set ever released. This list is in reverse order so that you’re able to see the latest sets at the top but can easily scroll down and find past sets. 

We’ll keep track of the official release dates for all the upcoming MTG sets and update this list as they’re announced.
