""The global release of Magic: The Gathering® | Marvel's Spider-Man swings into local game stores starting September 26, 2025. But if you're itching to join the ranks of your fellow Spider-Heroes before then, you can start at the set's Prerelease events. Combining casual gameplay with fresh cards, Prerelease events are the perfect place to learn about a new set. They're exciting, friendly, and amazing!
"But what is a Prerelease event? These events are hosted at local game stores and let you play with a new set a week ahead of its release. When you register for one of these events, you'll receive a Magic: The Gathering | Marvel's Spider-Man Prerelease Pack that contains the following:"
6 Magic: The Gathering | Marvel's Spider-Man Play Boosters
1 Traditional foil year-stamped rare or mythic rare card
1 Deck box
1 Spindown die (from among five total color variations)
Prereleases are typically run as Sealed events, which means you'll construct a 40-card deck out of the contents of your Prerelease Pack and any number of basic lands. While every Prerelease event is welcoming to new players, Magic: The Gathering | Marvel's Spider-Man is poised to be many players' first foray into playing Magic. Don't hesitate to ask questions if you're a new player or offer a helping hand if you're a more seasoned Magic fan.
