CardSpicy builds card protection products and runs this collector’s index. We cover Pokémon, One Piece, Gundam, Dragon Ball, Naruto, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Digimon and Riftbound, plus our newer sections on Magic: The Gathering, Disney Lorcana, Star Wars: Unlimited, Flesh and Blood and UNION ARENA — every card game we index in full, with the sleeves and rigid holders that fit them. We sell PSA 10 only, because that is the grade the market actually trades.
CardSpicy indexes card games with an emphasis on the Chinese-language editions, and Star Wars: Unlimited is one of the newest lines the site documents. This page is the index for everything CardSpicy publishes about it: the card types and the aspects a deck is built from, the rarities and the variant treatments worth knowing, the set sequence published so far, and where a new collection starts.
One structural fact shapes everything below. Star Wars: Unlimited is built around a leader and a base rather than a single hero card, and those two cards supply the aspects the rest of the deck is assembled from. That is why the game’s card list is best read as three separate questions: what a card is, which aspects it carries, and which set it came from.

Card types and aspects
The game runs on five card types and six aspects, and the two work together: the type says what a card does, and the aspect says whether it fits the leader and base you have chosen.
- Star Wars: Unlimited card types and rarities — leaders, bases, units, events and upgrades, the six aspects, and the rarity and variant labels printed on a card.
Rarities and variants
Two separate things are usually called rarity in this game. The first is the rarity printed in the card’s information block. The second is the treatment a particular copy carries — a Hyperspace version, a Showcase version, or one of the other special printings that can appear in a booster pack. They are different questions, and one card can exist at one rarity in more than one treatment.
The rarities and the treatments are set out in full on the card types page linked above, together with the deck construction rules that apply to each format.
Sets and releases
Fantasy Flight Games publishes Star Wars: Unlimited on a fixed rhythm rather than an open calendar: a new set releases roughly every four months, and each set adds a pool to the game instead of replacing the one before it.
- Star Wars: Unlimited sets and releases — the set sequence in order, what each set is built around, and the products that sit outside the numbered sets.
The most recent dated product that CardSpicy has written up separately is the ninth set, which is covered alongside the publisher’s own release update for it.
- Star Wars: Unlimited Homeworlds and Icons 2027 — the dated releases, the regional release change, and the first mini-set that follows.
Where to start
Starting a collection in this game is a decision about format before it is a decision about product, because the retailers and the deck sizes differ between Premier, draft and sealed play.

Where this section sits
Star Wars: Unlimited is one of the card games given their own material on CardSpicy. The lines that do not yet have a full section are collected on Other card games. Every page the site publishes, grouped by game and then by topic, is on All articles, and the sleeves, holders and storage that go around any of these cards start at Card accessories.
Frequently asked questions
Does CardSpicy index Star Wars: Unlimited cards?
It indexes the game rather than a card list. CardSpicy publishes guides to the card types, the aspects, the rarities and the set sequence; it does not run a page-per-card database for Star Wars: Unlimited.
How many rarities does Star Wars: Unlimited have?
Five rarities are printed on cards: Common, Uncommon, Rare, Legendary and Special. The Special rarity is the one to look for on a card’s information block, because it does not follow the usual ladder.
What is the difference between a rarity and a Hyperspace card?
A rarity is printed in the card’s information block and describes how often that card appears. A Hyperspace card is a treatment: the same card and the same rarity, printed with different art and a different frame.
How often does a new Star Wars: Unlimited set release?
Roughly every four months, according to the publisher’s own product guide. Each set adds a new card pool rather than replacing the previous sets.
What do I need to build a Premier deck?
A leader, a base, and at least fifty cards for the draw deck. The leader and the base each supply aspects, and those aspects decide which of your cards can be played without an extra cost.
