I don't think we've gotten an announcement about it yet, but for reference, this is the release history for the Anthologies, the date is when they LEFT the store:

  1. Explorer Anthology 1 -- ended July 28, 2022
  2. Explorer Anthology 2 -- ended December 13, 2022
  3. Explorer Anthology 3 -- ended October 10, 2023

We had a LOONNGGG wait between 2 and 3, but I think the target is every 6 months. They should be every 3 months imo, I think we will see the next perhaps early next year, hopefully in February.

I agree, I think they could honestly be rolling these out every month or two without any issue. It's 25 cards, when they add hundreds every set. Plus they clearly have time to add 25+ for each additional Alchemy expansion.
