Exciting News: Disney Lorcana Reprint Set to Amaze Fans!

Highlights

Exciting News! The highly sought-after Disney Lorcana collectible card game is undergoing a second printing and is expected to be available by the end of this year. Fans will have another incredible opportunity to obtain the coveted First Chapter set.

The Lorcana CCG, particularly the First Chapter set, has been in very limited supply, resulting in strong demand and sold-out retailers, including Disney's online store.

Disney has officially announced that reprints for both the First Chapter and Rise of the Floodborn sets will be released in holiday 2023, in response to the growing demand, in an effort to address the scarcity problems.

The highly popular Disney Lorcana collectible card game is getting a second printing, set to arrive before the year ends. The initial set, named First Chapter, has completely sold out at various retailers in the United States, including Disney's own online store. Despite expectations that the online shop would have ample supply of Lorcana starter decks and booster packs, they too sold out. Fortunately, Lorcana enthusiasts will soon have another opportunity to acquire the First Chapter set.

Initially released on August 18, the Lorcana First Chapter set was only available in select game shops, leading to extremely limited availability. When it was later launched in major retailers in September, fans were disappointed to discover that the supply could not keep up with the demand. Although there were indications that more copies of Lorcana's First Chapter would be restocked, this has not yet been proven. Disney seems to have shifted its focus to the upcoming release of Lorcana's second set, Rise of the Floodborn, scheduled for December.

A reprint of the First Chapter set was promptly confirmed due to availability issues on the day of Lorcana's release. However, detailed information regarding the reprint has only recently been disclosed. The reason for the reprint is attributed to "increased demand," and it is now scheduled to be available by holiday 2023. Consequently, it will not be released prior to the launch of Rise of the Floodborn on December 1.

It has also been confirmed that Rise of the Floodborn will receive a reprint. Although the first printing of the second Lorcana set will not be available for several months, Disney can already anticipate the need for more copies to meet the demand. The reprint of Rise of the Floodborn is planned for release during the holiday season of 2023, which is hopeful news for fans of Lorcana who are eager to start playing.

What adds to the frustration surrounding Lorcana is that the card game is inherently designed to create scarcity. Lorcana sets consist of various rarities, including the highly elusive Enchanted cards. These numbered cards are considered valuable additions to a complete set. Predictably, Enchanted cards are being sold on eBay for hundreds, and sometimes even thousands, of dollars.

It is uncertain whether the planned reprints of First Chapter and Rise of the Floodborn will effectively address Lorcana's scarcity problems. The scarcity issue, in fact, contributes to the appeal of the card game by maintaining high interest, increasing card value, and generating online discussions. However, it is anticipated that Disney's reprint will be extensive enough to meet the demands of all Lorcana players who wish to purchase starter packs and boosters. Lorcana is currently accessible.
