SET SAIL IN “AZURITE SEA,” THE NEW DISNEY LORCANA TRADING CARD GAME SET OUT NOW AT LOCAL GAME STORES
Ravensburger, the award-winning publisher of games, puzzles, and toys, has today released the latest set of the wildly popular Disney Lorcana Trading Card Game, Azurite Sea – out now at local game stores across Australia and New Zealand.
Eager Illumineers can collect and play the newest Disney Lorcana glimmers before the set’s release through mass market retailers and at DisneyStore.com.au from November 25, 2024.
Glimmers of pirates and inventors from across the worlds of Disney take centre stage in Azurite Sea when Illumineers set sail as part of their quest to repair The Great Illuminary. To help navigate the hazards of the Azurite Sea, characters from Disney’s Big Hero 6 join Disney Lorcana TCG for the first time, including Baymax, Hiro Hamada, Honey Lemon, Wasabi, Go Go Tomago and Fred.
Also debuting in the new set are beloved characters Chip and Dale, Gadget Hackwrench, Monterey Jack and Zipper from Chip ’n’ Dale Rescue Rangers. All cards in Azurite Sea can be used to update existing Disney Lorcana TCG decks and can be played alongside all previously released sets: The First Chapter, Rise of the Floodborn, Into the Inklands, Ursula’s Return and Shimmering Skies.
Azurite Sea
Repairs to the damaged Great Illuminary remain incomplete following Shimmering Skies, so the Illumineers set out on an expedition to save it. Along with their seafaring glimmers, Illumineers sail the dangerous Azurite Sea seeking the owner of the hidden inkcaster discovered in Ursula’s Return. They can only hope to find a more experienced Illumineer, someone who can teach them the valuable skills that will help fix the Great Illuminary. Their only clue in this search is a mysterious owl symbol inscribed on the base of the hidden inkcaster that matches a symbol shown on maps of the Azurite Sea. Meanwhile, Jafar, who remains determined to rule over the realm, searches for the other half of the powerful Hexwell Crown.
The Disney Lorcana TCG set Azurite Sea will include two Single-Player decks featuring combinations of Ruby/Amber or Sapphire/Emerald (AU$29.99 / NZ$32.99), booster packs of additional cards (AU$9.99 / NZ$10.99), and a new Illumineer’s Trove (AU$99.99 / NZ$109.99). New accessories include two playmats featuring Elsa – The Fifth Spirit from Disney’s Frozen and Donald Duck – Buccaneer. New card sleeves and deck boxes will feature Scar – Vengeful Lion from Disney’s The Lion King and Winnie the Pooh – Hunny Wizard from Disney’s Winnie the Pooh.
Also hitting shelves in-time for the holidays is the Stitch Collector’s Gift Set (AU$99.99 / NZ$109.99). The set includes a Stitch-themed portfolio, four Azurite Sea booster packs and a unique “Stitch-Alien Buccaneer” water foil promo card with a stunning water-inspired foil treatment – the first time this type of foil treatment has been used in Disney Lorcana TCG!
