Disney Lorcana’s Launch Set Is Getting A Reprint Due To High Demand
Since its official launch on August 28, Disney Lorcana has become a phenomenon. The new training card game has proven to be a hit with Disney fans and gamers alike, and demand has been through the roof.
Earlier this week, Lorcana players lined up outside of The World of Disney to try and get their hands on Lorcana starter packs. Just one hour after the store opened, the packs were sold out.
Because demand for Lorcana cards has been so high, resellers have made a ton of money on the secondary market. This has led many fans to complain that they are unable to play the new trading card game without coughing up a fortune to scalpers.
A Reprint Is On The Way
In an attempt to rectify the situation Ravensburger, the trading card game’s publisher, took to social media to announce that the Disney Lorcana launch set will be reprinted due to high demand.
“Our goal is for fans to be able to purchase and enjoy the Disney Lorcana TCG product at the suggested retail price,” Ravensburger said “and we will continue to take steps to ensure a level of availability and quality that keeps the market healthy for both collectors and players.”
While a reprint of the Disney Lorcana launch set will certainly help fulfill demand, Ravensburger is warning that the restocked cards won’t hit U.S. markets until the first quarter of 2024.
“Additional booster product will start arriving in North American local game stores in October. We are also reprinting Disney Lorcana: The First Chapter, which will be available starting in Q1 2024 in North America and Europe,” the company continued.
What’s Next?
The next big date for the popular trading card game was September 1st when Lorcana arrived at big-box retailers and online at shopDisney.com, where it promptly sold out.
With demand still through the roof, it will interesting to see how long Lorcana remains in stock elsewhere.
