Disney Lorcana Celebrates Lion King Anniversary with Art Tease
Disney Lorcana players are wondering if a new Lion King card is coming after a promising tweet.
After the shut down of Pixelborn, the competitive Disney Lorcana community has felt a bit unmotivated. It was a big blow to the tournament scene without any new ways to compete together online. But that hasn't stopped fans from being excited about new card rumors and how the meta may change.
Now, the official Disney Lorcana account on X has hinted at a possible new card for a special ocassion.
Are We Getting a New Lion King Card in Disney Lorcana?
Disney Lorcana's X account shared a tweet earlier today that celebrated The Lion King's debut on the big screen 30 years ago. It's now been three decades of Disney fans loving The Lion King and one of the ways we have continued to celebrate the groundbreaking animated film is within Disney Lorcana.
Now, fans are wondering if we are getting a new Lion King card to commemorate the 30 year anniversary.
The art that was shared along with the announcement is what has fans speculating. It looks like a brand new and special design that hasn't been seen before, meaning someone took the time to create this art for the announcement — and maybe more.
Remember who you are and remember this day, as 30 years ago “The Lion King” roared onto the silver screen. Three decades later we still love this timeless tale of the cub who became a king.#DisneyLorcana pic.twitter.com/9W7a4lt16R

Are we getting a Mufasa card? Maybe a playmat? So far, Ravensburger hasn't said anything about a special card or any other product for The Lion King.
This looks like solid card art. Will be excited to know what card is getting this. Also, get ahead of the curve on this one, and announce this as a future playmat now!

I can't wait to see the card this is on! I wonder if it will have some kind of grave recursion... Or maybe some kind of shift aid? Like shift from your deck?? Idk I'm just excited lol

Is this going to be a playmat?! If so, YES!! 😻 If not, PLEASE can this be made into one?! 🤩 This is my favorite movie! 🥰 Also, “The Lion King 2” should definitely be added to the game, please and thank you! ❤️ @JasonMarsden

Only time will tell but it has at least given Disney Lorcana players something to feel re-energized about.
