Innistrad: Crimson Vow is the 90th Magic expansion.[1] It is expected to be released on November 19, 2021, and is paired up with Innistrad: Midnight Hunt that will release two months earlier.[2]
Set details
The codename for Innistrad: Crimson Vow ("Clubs") deviates from the regular alphabetic sports naming convention, because the set was concepted after the following codenames were already established.[3] The set was announced with the provisional name Innistrad: Vampires on September 1, 2020.[2] Based on the registration of public domains on September 18, 2020, the final name was speculated to be Innistrad: Crimson Vow.[4] This was finally confirmed on March 18, 2021.[5]
Both Innistrad sets are full size sets and they are both are Standard-legal. Although they come out only two months apart in the latter part of 2021, R&D is not changing how many sets are being added to Standard during the rotation window, but just shifted the timing around slightly.[6] The sets are designed to draft by themselves, but they also will draft well together. The two sets are synergistic and overlap in spots.[7][8]
Storyline
This set features the biggest Vampire wedding in Innistrad history.[1][5]
