Pinfinity Pins are returning to Magic: The Gathering via the upcoming Bloomburrow set, which is legal in Standard and uses augmented reality.

A partnership between Pinfinity and MTG began in 2021, via Dungeons & Dragons: Adventures in the Forgotten Realms and later Dominaria United. Beginning with the release of Bloomburrow later this summer, local WPN game stores will offer exclusive pins as rewards for players who attend Friday Night Magic events. Each kit includes six Pinfinity AR-enhanced pins and two metal Commander tokens. Players can scan a Pinifinity Pin with their phone to unlock digital features.
The Commander format dominated Friday Night Magic events for years, and a recent push from WotC has brought back the Standard format as an optional event. Pinfinity Pins are an incentive for players to gather at local game stores on Friday nights to play MTG. The AR-enhanced pins can play videos or animations, along with audio tracks and downloadable content.
Most individual Pinfinity Pins are worth around $15, while upcoming Bloomburrow Pins are estimated to be worth around $7. Players who finish at the top of Friday Night Magic events can earn a Bloomburrow Pinfinity Pin. Local game store owners are free to give the remaining Pins to players as they wish.
