Star Wars: Unlimited Confirms Legacy of Skywalker Set for 2027

Fantasy Flight Games has confirmed Legacy of Skywalker as an upcoming set for its trading card game Star Wars: Unlimited, with a release in 2027. Screen Rant reports the set is officially confirmed for next year, but no exact release date has been announced.

What Legacy of Skywalker Covers

Legacy of Skywalker is a standard booster set that covers the Skywalker family across every era of the Star Wars saga, according to eGamers. Specific card details are still scarce.

The Skywalker family is the central thread of the nine-film saga. Anakin Skywalker’s story anchors the prequel era, his son Luke leads the original trilogy, and his daughter Leia, along with her son Ben Solo, carries the family into the sequel era. Rey later takes the Skywalker name at the end of the sequel trilogy. A set organized around the family therefore has the potential to draw cards from three separate eras of films, and from the animated and live-action stories that surround them, rather than concentrating on a single period.

For players, that kind of theme matters because Star Wars: Unlimited decks are built around a leader and a base, and new sets expand the pool of characters that can fill those decks. A set that spans several eras can bring characters who have not previously appeared together into the same format, which gives players new combinations to test. Until Fantasy Flight shares card previews, however, any claims about specific characters or mechanics are speculation, and the only confirmed details are the family theme and the 2027 window.

The 2027 Roadmap

Fantasy Flight revealed the 2027 roadmap during its Galactic Report broadcast at the Star Wars: Unlimited Galactic Championship in Las Vegas, held July 24 to 26, according to W. Eric Martin. Besides Legacy of Skywalker, the roadmap lists Icons 2027 Edition, System Overload, Icons 2028 Edition and Galaxy at War, all through the end of 2027 and none with a release date.

The roadmap shows that Fantasy Flight is planning its release schedule well in advance, which allows tournament organizers, local game stores and players to prepare for future sets. Revealing it at a championship event is also a way of speaking directly to the most committed members of the community, who gathered in person in Las Vegas for the competition. Because none of the sets on the list carry an exact date, the order and timing of the releases remain open, and the confirmed information is limited to the set names and the fact that they are planned through the end of 2027.

The roadmap includes two Icons-titled products, an Icons 2027 Edition and an Icons 2028 Edition, alongside the booster sets. As with the other entries, no contents have been described, so the roadmap should be read as an outline of names rather than a list of finished products.

Homeworlds Arrives First

The next set to arrive is Homeworlds, which is due in October 2026. ICv2 reports it is a 260-card booster set centered on forces attacking and defending homeworlds across the galaxy, with Chewbacca, Ezra Bridger, C-3PO, Grand Moff Tarkin and Director Krennic among the featured characters.

The character list shows how broad the game’s source material is. Chewbacca and C-3PO come from the original films, Tarkin appears as an Imperial commander in the first Star Wars film, Krennic is the Imperial director from Rogue One, and Ezra Bridger comes from the animated series Star Wars Rebels. A single set that combines these figures illustrates the way Star Wars: Unlimited draws from films, animated series and live-action television in the same pool of cards. The Legacy of Skywalker set will continue that approach, with a theme tied to one family rather than to a location or conflict.

About Star Wars: Unlimited

Star Wars: Unlimited is a trading card game published by Fantasy Flight Games, which launched in March 2024 with the set Spark of Rebellion. Since then the game has expanded through a series of booster sets, each adding new cards and characters. The game has relied on a mix of new characters and long-standing favorites from every era of the franchise, which suits a property with as many stories, planets and factions as Star Wars.

Booster sets are the main way the game grows. Each one introduces a new group of cards that players can open in packs, trade with other players and use to build decks, which keeps the competitive environment changing between releases. For collectors, a family-themed set like Legacy of Skywalker also offers a clear focus, since the cards are tied together by a connected cast of characters rather than by a single story.

What Remains Unknown

Several practical details are still unannounced for Legacy of Skywalker. Fantasy Flight has not published an exact release date, a card count, a preview schedule or a list of featured characters. Those announcements usually arrive in stages ahead of a launch, so more information is likely to appear through official channels and through coverage from outlets that report on tabletop and trading card games. For now, the verified facts are that the set exists, that it is a standard booster set, that it focuses on the Skywalker family across every era, and that it is scheduled for 2027 as part of a roadmap that also includes several other products through the end of that year.
