When Archazia’s Island Releases In 2025

Like previousLorcanasets,Archazia’s Islandhas two distinct release dates.Lorcanasets are always released one to two weeks earlier at local game stores, Disney Stores, and Disney Parks.

Disney Lorcana Is On A Roll, But There’s One Lesson From Pokémon TCG It Needs To Learn For 2025
Disney Lorcana is an incredible trading card game, but it has one important lesson to learn from the Pokémon TCG if it wants to become number one.
Two weeks after the initial launch,Archazia’s Islandwill be available throughmass-market retailers and on DisneyStore.com on August 07, 2025. This gives players who weren’t able to get any products from the initial release a second chance. It’s also nice forLorcanaplayers who may not live near a local game store or Disney Store, but don’t want to have to pay inflated prices on secondary markets like TCGPlayer.
Archazia’s Island Prerelease & Preorder Info
Archazia’s Island Prerelease Events Vary Depending On The Venue
Disney Lorcanadoesn’t have the same style of prerelease events that players have come to expect from otherTCGs likeMagic: The Gatheringor thePokémon Trading Card Game.Lorcanadoesn’t really have a prerelease where products from a new set are made available before the release date sincelocal game stores already getLorcanaproducts earlier than most retailers. Any “prerelease” events therefore happen after the set has actually been released in these stores, and are usually just called a prerelease because TCG players associate the term with a specific type of event.
BecauseLorcanadoesn’t have a formal structure for prerelease events, how they work varies from store to store. Some local stores will do a sealed tournament where players get six sealed booster packs of the latest set and use it to construct a 40-card deck. These types of events usually allow players to use any number of different ink colors in their deck, instead of the typical two thatLorcanadecks are restricted to. Otherwise, it would be pretty hard to put together a playable deck just using booster packs.
Local game stores also typically offer pre-orders for new TCG sets, since it helps them decide how much product to get from their distributors.
Other stores opt to have a slightly more beginner-friendly model for their prereleases and provide participants with a starter deck and a select number of packs from the new set. This gives players a firm base to build around, instead of having to construct a deck from scratch. Starter decks haven’t been previewed yet forArchazia’s Island, but they are expected to be coming so this is a possibility for some prerelease events.
Although no official pre-orders have gone up forArchazia’s Islandyet, the previous set,Azurite Sea, may be a good indication of how it will work.Azurite Seahad an exclusive online pre-order through Best Buy,according toPolygon. Keeping an eye on Best Buy listings for the game may therefore be a good idea in the coming months. Local game stores also typically offer pre-orders for new TCG sets, since it helps them decide how much product to get from their distributors. Just know that, when pre-ordering from an LGS, their allocation numbers can sometimes be unpredictable.
Confirmed Cards For Archazia’s Island (So Far)
Only One Card Has Been Previewed So Far
As of right now, there is only one confirmed card forArchazia’s Island. Moana, Adventurer of Land and Sea was originally given out as apromo card alongside the release ofMoana 2. The card has the set number forArchazia’s Islandon the bottom, so it will likely appear in the set in some form, though it will probably have different artwork from the promo version.The card itself isn’t terribly exciting, just a high-willpower character with no effect that quests for one lore. This doesn’t really give many indications of what to expect from the set.

The first isBolt, who has been featured in the key art forArchazia’s Island.It was also recently announced that there will be cards featuring characters fromLady & The Trampin the upcoming set.
