Ravensburger has dropped some details for Chapter 2, Rise of the Floodborn. Rise of the Floodborn will arrive on November 17th, then retail on December 1st, but they have not addressed if the printing will have the lack of availability like Chapter 1 did/does, which is making them reprint it, so if you can get a pre-order, do so!

Chapter 1 Reprint:

As an Illumineer, you’ll wield six magical inks to summon glimmers of Disney characters. Glimmers can appear as familiar friends or in fantastically reimagined forms. Recruit glimmers to your team as you travel through the realm of Lorcana.

The Disney Lorcana: Rise of the Floodborn trading card game will be available at Hobby Stores and Disney Parks on November 17th and on Mass retailers and shopDisney on December 1.

Rise of the Floodborn Starter Decks

Begin Your Adventure: Starter Decks

To play the Disney Lorcana TCG, each player will need a deck of sixty cards. Ready-to-play starter decks contain a preconstructed deck with a specific card list. If you’re new to trading card games, or if you want to experience the game with a deck designed and tested by Team Lorcana, this is a good place to start.

Each starter deck includes:

  • 1 starter deck of 60 cards, including 2 foil cards of the characters on the package front

  • 2 rare, super rare, or legendary cards
  • 1 foil card (random rarity level)

Deck Boxes

Each deck box can hold up to 80 sleeved cards. These Disney Lorcana TCG deck boxes will feature the same Sisu and Mulan art as the card sleeves.

Playmats

Each playmat features striking artwork of Disney characters. A fabric top prevents damage during gameplay and can also be used as a desk mat or mouse pad, while the anti-slip bottom keeps the mat in place during use. These Disney Lorcana TCG playmats will feature Beast and Winnie the Pooh.

First Look – Rise of the Floodborn

Introducing Disney Lorcana TCG’s second set

Illumineers, we’re excited to share the next set release for Disney Lorcana TCG, Rise of the Floodborn!

The Queen 26 / Belle 72 / Gaston 147 card images

This set dips into the inky origins of floodborn glimmers. The six magical inks… Amber, Amethyst, Emerald, Ruby, Sapphire, and Steel, were released in a mixed-up chaotic form, resulting in a mysterious flood which damaged the Great Illuminary. When storyborn or dreamborn glimmers encounter this mixed ink, they surge with a power that changes them, transforming them into floodborn glimmers. As the magical ink poured out of the illuminary, treasured lore went with it, including King Triton’s powerful trident.

Winnie the Pooh 59 and Tiana Cards 196

Disney Lorcana: Rise of the Floodborn features more than 200 cards with brand-new artwork. Fan favorites like Winnie the Pooh and Tiana appear for the first time, while six additional Disney stories join the game’s lineup:

  • Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
  • Pinocchio
  • Zootopia
  • The Great Mouse Detective
  • The Jungle Book
  • Raya and the Last Dragon
Cinderella 177 card image

Additionally, a new Keyword makes its debut, Resist.

The Resist keyword indicates how much additional damage characters may be able to withstand. For example, Resist + 2 on a character would mean any damage dealt to them is reduced by 2.

Let’s take a look at each of the products!

D100 product image

This set is perfect for collectors, containing six cards from Disney Lorcana: The First Chapter and Disney Lorcana: Rise of the Floodborn featuring never-before-seen alternate artwork drawn by Disney animators from Walt Disney Animation Studios.

D100 card images

Each card features an exclusive Disney100 frame design, a satin holographic foil finish, and a copy of the animator’s signature prominently displayed. Additionally, each set contains four Booster Packs of Disney Lorcana: Rise of the Floodborn.

Disney Lorcana: Rise of the Floodborn will first release at local game stores on November 17th, while the wide release, including the Disney Lorcana: Disney100 Edition, will follow on December 1st.

We hope you’re excited for even more reveals in the coming weeks. While we’ve shared a handful of glimmers transformed by the flood, you’ll have to check back often to see them all!

A new legal battle erupted in the card game world today as Upper Deck Company announced it’s suing Ravensburger, alleging the upcoming Disney card game, Lorcana, is made from a stolen game.

Upper Deck is known primarily for its collectible trading cards, as well as card games like “Legendary: A Marvel Deck Building Game,” “Vs. System,” and “Dark Legacy.” The statement from Upper Deck alleges that “Ravensburger and a previous Upper Deck game designer [stole and copied] Upper Deck’s original game which Ravensburger repackaged and marketed as Lorcana.”

According to Upper Deck President Jason Masherah:

“We invested significant time and resources to develop a new and novel trading card game. Our current leadership values the importance of protecting intellectual property of both Upper Deck and its licensors.”

Ravensburger is a company that has published games for players of all ages, including children’s games, family games, and strategy games. Among tabletop gamers, it’s known for releasing several games using licensed properties, particularly Disney. Some of the company’s more well-known games include “Villanous,” “Horrified,” and “The Princess Bride Adventure Book Game.”

Most recently, Ravensburger gained attention when it was announced it would be producing Lorcana, the Disney card game. This collectible card game brings characters from Disney’s history and cinematic library together, as players summon iconic characters in reimagined and classic forms. The game is set to release in September 2023 with booster packs, starter decks, and an “Illumineer’s Trove” to start the game with.

In its lawsuit, Upper Deck alleges that Lorcana’s game designer, Ryan Miller, copied the work he’d done for Upper Deck on a game called “Rush of Ikorr,” and transported it to Ravensburger, where it became Lorcana.

You can read the full complaint here.

This story is still developing, and more information will be added as it’s made available. In the meantime, keep an eye on G33k-HQ for more card game news as it comes.
