Reality Fracture First Look

We’re ready to shatter the multiverse to get a first look at this amazing new set. Reality Fracture is the wrap up of Magic’s Metronome Arc and we can’t wait to see what Wizards has in store for us.

The Story

Jace is back! For all the Jace-stans who were sad to see him poof into dust, our morally gray Gatewatch member has returned with a plan. Is it a good plan? Our Gatewatch members don’t think so. The story takes place in the Echoverse, a reality created by Jace Beleren (now known as “The Theorist”) as a “perfect” Multiverse free of Nicol Bolas, the Eldrazi, and Phyrexia. Jace’s solution to the Multiverse’s chaos, which includes a bizarro “survival of the fittest” version of Strixhaven called Hexhaven, has quickly become a threat to the worlds we know. His old companions Chandra, Liliana, and Ajani and more must confront him head-on to save the Multiverse they know.
