thegamer.com:

Wizards of the Coast has given us our first real look at Magic The Gathering's upcoming Commander-focused set, Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur's Gate. In it, a number of reprints have been confirmed, as well as returning art styles from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms.

It also announced that Magic The Gathering Arena will be getting its own version of the set in the form of Alchemy Horizons: Baldur's Gate, which adapts the cards from being built for Commander to Arena's own Alchemy format instead.

Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur's Gate is the successor to two sets – 2020's Commander Legends, which introduced 'Commander Draft' in the first booster product made for the format, and 2021's Dungeons & Dragons: Adventures in the Forgotten Realms, the first time D&D has crossed over into MTG. Set in the famous D&D city of Baldur's Gate, the set will include a large number of new legendary creatures to build around. As announced on the WeeklyMTG sneak preview stream and later posted on the official website, it will also include a few more as-your-Commander Planeswalkers, such as Minsc & Boo, Timeless Heroes.

Though this was only a preview ahead of the full reveal and spoiler season starting May 16, which means no new mechanics were shown off, we did have confirmation of some of the Commander-focused reprints we'll be seeing in the set. In particular, it was announced that five of the ten Bond Lands (the five not included in the original Commander Legends) would see reprints alongside Reflecting Pool.

We'll also get a reprint of one of Magic's most famous instants, with Lightning Bolt being printed at common rarity.
