Disney Lorcana Attack of the Vine! releases 24 July 2026, with prerelease events having already run from 17 July. It's the game's summer blockbuster set, built around Illumineers teaming up with Pixar's Boo, Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan to stop a monstrous vine growing out of control. It's also a bigger deal competitively than a normal set, since it triggers Lorcana's second-ever rotation.
Monsters Inc joins the Lorcana roster
Following Wilds Unknown's introduction of Toy Story, The Incredibles and Brave earlier this year, Attack of the Vine continues Ravensburger's push into Pixar properties with Monsters Inc as the headline addition. Boo, Mike and Sulley all get their first Lorcana cards here, alongside the existing cast of classic Disney characters the set continues to draw from.
Rotation changes what's legal to play
Attack of the Vine marks Lorcana's second Core Constructed rotation, following the first rotation in September 2025 when Fabled pushed Sets 1 through 4 out of the format. Ravensburger's two-year rule keeps only the current and previous game year's sets legal in Core Constructed, so if you've been sitting on Year 3 staples, now is the point to check whether they're still tournament legal. Infinity Constructed, the format where every card ever printed remains legal, is unaffected.
What actually rotates out
Sets 1 through 4, The First Chapter through Ursula's Return, were the first sets pushed out of Core Constructed back in September 2025. This second rotation follows the same two-year pattern, so any card whose legality you're unsure of is worth double-checking against Ravensburger's official rotation list before you build around it for your next event. Competitive players switching formats mid-season should treat this as a genuine deck-building reset, not a minor housekeeping change.
Real early pricing from the set
C3's Lorcana pages are already tracking Attack of the Vine, and the Enchanted rarities are moving as expected for a fresh set. Winnie the Pooh & Piglet, Hunny Mages (Enchanted) is currently over AU$1,000, with Woody & Buzz Lightyear, Best Buddies (Enchanted) close behind at nearly AU$800. Mike Wazowski, Heroic Climber (Enchanted) is the strongest Monsters Inc pull so far, sitting above AU$370.
What's coming after it
Attack of the Vine isn't the last stop for 2026. Illumineer's Quest: The Great Hunny Rescue, the cooperative standalone product that wraps up the current story arc, releases in October at $59.99, and a second two-player starter set is planned alongside it. Ravensburger has also confirmed the next mainline set will be set in a fantastical metropolis called Hyperia City and will feature glimmers from Pixar's Coco, with a release window later in the year.
What this means for Australian players
If you're playing Core Constructed, check your current deck against the newly rotated pool before your next locals night, cards you've relied on since Year 3 may no longer be legal. If you're buying into Attack of the Vine for the Monsters Inc cards specifically, remember that Enchanted pricing on a set this fresh tends to move quickly in both directions over the first few weeks.

Getting started with the set
Local game stores generally carry Attack of the Vine booster packs and Illumineer's Trove product alongside whatever Wilds Unknown stock they have left, and prerelease weekend is usually the cheapest way to get hands-on with the new cards before deciding what to chase in singles. If you're building for Core Constructed rather than collecting, prioritise checking your existing deck against the rotation list before spending on anything new from this set.
