Magic the Gathering’s latest expansion Throne of Eldraine has been released on Wizard of the Coast’s digital platform MTG Arena, and with it comes a set of new codes to earn free packs and exclusive cosmetic card styles.

With the official release of MTGA on September 27, hosts of new players have jumped online to test out Wizard’s new Magic the Gathering platform, diving straight into the card collection that’s become synonymous with the fantasy game.

To help swell player’s collections at the start of new expansions, Wizards releases free booster packs, as well as interesting and expansion-relevant card styles (rare animated cards), all of which are available if you know the right code to punch into the system.
