D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event 2026 delivered one of the biggest Disney Lorcana presentations yet, with Ravensburger unveiling new sets, new products, expanded competitive play and perhaps the most anticipated announcement in the game's history: Disney Lorcana Digital is officially in development.
Disney Lorcana Digital Is Finally Happening
The headline reveal came at the end of the presentation when Ravensburger confirmed that a digital version of Disney Lorcana, playable on both desktop and mobile devices, is officially "in the works." Fans can now register their interest at here at DisneyLorcana.com/digital to receive news about upcoming public testing opportunities.
A Look Ahead to 2027
The panel also offered an early glimpse at Cosmic Quest, a space themed set arriving in Spring 2027 that will take Illumineers beyond the Inklands and into the stars. Ravensburger additionally teased that future storylines, products and expansions are already being planned through 2029 and beyond.
The game's growth has been remarkable. As Disney Lorcana celebrates its third anniversary, Ravensburger revealed that:
- 13 sets have now been released
- More than 3,000 unique cards have been printed
- Over 2.8 billion cards have been sold worldwide
Collector Boosters and the New Illustrious Rarity
Beginning with Into the Inkdark in Q1 2027, Lorcana will introduce Collector Boosters, featuring 12 premium foil cards per pack. The new product will also debut a brand new rarity called Illustrious. Only six Illustrious cards will appear in each set, with just 23 serialized copies of each card produced worldwide.

The first Illustrious card revealed was Maleficent – Biding Her Time, a special callback to the very first Lorcana card unveiled at D23 in 2022.
Golden Hades Promos Take Center Stage

Competitive players and collectors were also treated to the reveal of the stunning new Golden Hades promotional cards. These ultra premium prizes immediately became one of the most talked about reveals of the weekend and are expected to become some of the most sought after tournament rewards in Lorcana's history.
Disney Lorcana Challenge Season 3 Expands

Ravensburger also shared several exciting updates for the next season of competitive play.
Most notably, Season 3 will introduce a dedicated Youth Division, with a 8 to 12 age bracket and a 13 to 17 bracket, creating a structured competitive pathway for younger Illumineers and making Disney Lorcana Challenge events even more welcoming for families.
London DLC Returns in November 2026

European players had plenty to celebrate as Ravensburger confirmed that the Disney Lorcana Challenge returns to the UK with its first London DLC in November 2026, giving UK players another opportunity to compete for major prizes, championship invites, and exclusive event rewards.
Expect more information regarding registration, venue details, and tournament formats to be announced in the coming months.
Final Thoughts
Between the reveal of Lorcana Digital, the introduction of Collector Boosters and Illustrious cards, the announcement of Golden Hades promos, the launch of a Youth Division for younger players and confirmation of a London DLC stop in November 2026, D23 delivered one of the most significant weekends in the game's history. There's plenty to be excited about for all ages for the remainder of the year and beyond.
