Burger King just launched a Magic: The Gathering meal that comes with Whopper-themed deck boxes and sleeves. Unfortunately, the promotion is exclusive to Burger King Italy, with no indication that it will expand to other countries.
However, not all hope is lost for players from other regions — this is one of the first fast-food partnerships from Wizards of the Coast, following the trend of franchises like Pokémon. If the promotion goes well, it’s safe to expect more MTG collaborations across other regions in the future.
The Great Gathering Bundle (they use English on the official Burger King Italy site) includes your choice of a Chicken Krispper, Double Cheeseburger, or the plant-based Impossible Whopper with fries and a drink. It’s priced at 19.90, equivalent to roughly $22 USD, and is available now through November 30.
That sounds yummy and all, but the real kicker that’s both intrigued and frustrated Magic fans is the new TCG accessories. Each meal comes with a Burger King-themed deck box and 100 card sleeves, perfect for your silliest Commander deck. Both accessories, which can be see in the image above, are designed in the style of a Whopper burger, with an orange ‘sesame bun’ pattern, a patty, and layers of toppings.
Sturdy deck boxes on their own are rarely under $20, making the accessories a genuinely good deal. As it stands, however, the only way to get your hands on them is by going to Italy to chow down on some Burger King.
