Modern Horizons is a Magic booster set which will be released on June 14, 2019.[5] Modern Horizons is the Innovation Product for 2019, and is designed to be drafted.
Set details
This set introduces new cards into Modern without them ever being legal in Standard. It contains new cards and only reprints which are currently not legal in Modern.[6] For this, it was rigorously playtested by Play Design.[7] In addition there are five basic lands, and a Buy-a-Box card which is also a new-to-Modern reprint. The powerful new card options, some with old mechanics, are mixed with flavorful updates for favorite characters.[8]
Marketing
Modern Horizons will be printed for as long as demand holds.[9] It will release on Magic Online on June 13, with a booster price of $6.99 (regular booster packs cost $3.99). It will not be featured on MTG Arena.

Prerelease takes place on June 8–9, 2019.
