Friday Morning Gaming Newsletter - Aetherdrift Pre-Release

And a couple of official North County Gamers events are coming soon!

Good Morning Everyone!

First and foremost, The Coop is open this Saturday, February 8 from 12PM to 6PM. Go play some pinball this weekend! Tournament starts about 1PM and all skill levels are welcomed.

It’s a great weekend if you’re a Magic: The Gathering fan! If you’re unaware about the Magic: The Gathering release schedule, every time a new set is about to release, Local Game Shops will hold Pre-Release events allowing players to get early access to cards and play games focused around that set.

Leave your competition in the dust! Get behind the wheel in Aetherdrift, a multiversal race filled with adrenaline-fueled Magic gameplay across three planes.

On February 14, 2025 Aetherdrift is set to release so that means this weekend is the Atherdrift Pre-release events! There are four locations that are offering Aetherdrift Pre-Release events this weekend in North County:
