Flesh and Blood creator, James White, took the stage at World Tour: London this past weekend to deliver his Keynote Presentation and unveil all the exciting upcoming products and events for 2025.
World Tour: Auckland
First up, White announced that the next World Tour will be held in the birthplace of Flesh and Blood — Auckland, NZ.
Slated to take place August 8-10, World Tour: Auckland will host a double Calling weekend, of which one will feature “Welcome to Rathe Limited, with Day 2 Booster Draft featuring alpha edition booster packs.” Additionally, there will be an “Arcane Rising Battle Hardened, with Top 8 Booster Draft featuring 1st Edition booster packs.”
Armory Decks
Following the release of Armory Deck: Maxx Nitro on April 17, Flesh and Blood plans to release Armory Deck: Ira on July 11. According to White, Flesh and Blood is also aiming to ramp up the game’s presence at large conventions, which lead to the reveal of the convention-exclusive Armory Deck: Legends, featuring Viserai, Rune Blood, and Prism, Sculptor of Arc Light.
These Living Legend-format starter decks will contain key reprints and will only be available at San Diego Comic Con (July 24-27) and Gen Con (July 31 – August 3) for $59.90.
Mastery Pack Guardian
As the name implies, Mastery Pack Guardian is a 130-card supplemental booster set that focuses on Flesh and Blood’s Guardian class. According to Legend Story Studios (LSS), the product “…tells the story of the third age, the era when the Flow was abundant across Rathe, and the Old Ones roamed the land.”
Mastery Pack Guardian is slated to release on August 8.
Smash Palace
Releasing with Mastery Pack Guardian, Smash Palace is a new multiplayer box set that features seven new heroes exclusive to the Ultimate Pit Fight format and an Event Deck.
A new mechanic, the Event Deck adds unique properties to each turn. At the start of each player’s turn, they’ll flip over the top card for the event deck and have to abide by whatever wild text the card contains.
High Seas
White concluded the presentation with a slew of new previews for Flesh and Blood’s upcoming set – High Seas, as well as the reveal of the set’s special Treasure Packs.
Each booster display of High Seas will come with one (1) Treasure Pack which contains three cards:
- 1 Map Slot: 9 pieces of an ancient map
- 1 Gold Slot: 3 different “Gold” cards (Gold, Golden Cog, Goldkiss Rum)
- 1 Treasure Slot: 14 Cold Foil Commons, 49 Cold Foil Pirate Booty, 4 Cold Foil Legendaries, 11 Cold Foil Marvels, 43 Lost Treasures
According to LSS, each Treasure Pack also has the potential to include incredible treasures, such as one-of-a-kind cards signed and pulled directly from White’s personal collection. You can watch the video below to get an idea of just how special these inclusions are.
High Seas is scheduled to release on June 6, 2025.
