Disney Lorcana Trading Card Game's new set, 'Hyperia City,' received its general worldwide release on the 23rd. Ravensburger announced in a press release on September 22 that prereleases would take place on the 16th at game stores and select Disney parks and Disney Stores, followed by general sales "everywhere" starting on the 23rd. According to DisneyBlog, World of Disney at Disney Springs in the United States held early sales on the 16th via a virtual queue.

Debut Mechanic 'Ink Drop': A Single-Use 1-Ink Counter

The central mechanic of this set is the 'ink drop.' The official Set Release Notes (October 8) define an ink drop as "a counter that can help pay ink costs." Each counts as 1 ink and is removed once spent, meaning it cannot be reused. Because they are not cards, they are not shuffled into a deck, and there is no limit to how many a player can hold or use. Physical ink drop tokens are included in Hyperia City booster packs, but players may substitute dice or other markers.

According to an official deep-dive article (September 29), ink drops are not bound to any specific ink color and can be used on the turn they are created. For example, the action card 'The Jousting Match' deals 2 damage to a chosen character, but deals 5 damage instead if an ink drop is spent to pay for it.

The release notes also introduced the new keyword 'Adventurous.' Characters with this keyword cannot challenge and must quest each turn if able, with text on five existing cards updated accordingly. A revision to the counter rules and an errata for 'Jukebox' were also published.

'Coco' Makes Lorcana Debut: Featured Franchises and Products

According to the press release, the set is set in a fictional city blending urban life and fantasy, featuring Disney and Pixar's 'Coco,' 'Big Hero 6' (Honey Lemon), Disney Princesses, Mickey Mouse, Cinderella, and more. 'Coco' characters Miguel, Héctor, and Pepita make their first appearance in Lorcana. The game's highest-rarity 'Iconic' cards are two: 'Mickey Mouse – Best in Town' and 'Cinderella – Unintentional Icon.' Booster packs contain 12 cards. An official 60-card 'Coco'-themed deck list centered on Héctor, Miguel, and Pepita was also published on the official website on the 15th.

| Product | U.S. MSRP (per ICv2) | |---|---| | Illumineer's Trove (8 booster packs, storage box, 6 card dividers, 6 dice, lore counter) | $49.99 | | Prerelease Box | $39.99 | | Booster Display (24 packs) | $143.76 |

Because the official press release did not include pricing or set numbering, the prices above follow reporting by U.S. trade publication ICv2.

What Changes for Korean Players

Ravensburger's press release and official news page made no mention of an official Korean release, a Korean-language edition, or a domestic distributor. Official distribution in South Korea remains unconfirmed. Korean players engaging with foreign editions should check the official release notes first, as the ink drop mechanic, Adventurous keyword, and counter rule revisions take effect with this set.
