Riftbound's 2027 program adds Ladder Points, a five-rank ladder and Grandmaster titles for the top 50 annual players, four three-day Continentals (Dallas, Melbourne, London, Toronto), three-day Regionals and 30-40 Showdown Series events per season.
At Regional Championships the top 58 players will pick Overnumbered Foil Plated Legends by placement, match concessions and post-time result deciding are banned, and decklists are open. Each Regional's Top 8 is invited to a first World Championship Showcase in China in late January.
Riftbound is replacing Summoner Skirmish with the Riftbound Challenge Series and a monthly Nexus Cup, and renaming Regional Qualifiers to Regionals and Regional Championships to Continentals. Stores begin moving from Carde.io to the Riftbound Gaming Network on 14 September.
