'''''Azurite Sea''''' is the sixth set of the ''[[Disney Lorcana]]'' trading card game. It was released by [[Ravensburger]] for prerelease in local game stores on November 15, 2024, and had a full global release on November 25, 2024.<ref>{{cite web |title=Disney Lorcana: Azurite Sea Release Date and Products |url=https://icv2.com/articles/news/view/57400/disney-lorcana-azurite-sea-release-date-products |publisher=ICv2 |date=September 12, 2024 |access-date=2026-04-21}}</ref> The set introduces a high‑seas adventure theme and features the debuts of ''[[Big Hero 6 (film)|Big Hero 6]]'' and ''[[Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers]]'' in Lorcana.

The set consists of 204 main set cards. Azurite Sea does not introduce any major core mechanics like previous expansions, but instead focuses on two new character types – '''Robot''' and '''Inventor''' – that create synergistic deck‑building opportunities. The set also emphasizes '''Pirate'''-themed characters and brings Location cards back into the spotlight.

== Story ==
Following the events of ''Shimmering Skies'', the Illumineers set sail across the beautiful yet unpredictable Azurite Sea in search of a more experienced Illumineer to help them repair the shattered Great Illuminary. They encounter all sorts of foes who want to control the realm, including kakamora pirates, wily swashbucklers, and rival inventors with their accompanying robots. The Azurite Sea was previously mentioned on older cards, including ''Monstro – Whale of a Whale'' and ''Denahi – Avenging Brother''.<ref>{{cite web |title=Azurite Sea Story Preview |url=https://www.disneylorcana.com/en-US/news/2024/10/azurite-sea-story |publisher=Ravensburger |date=October 15, 2024 |access-date=2026-04-21}}</ref>

== New mechanics and features ==

=== Robot classification ===
'''Robot''' is a new character classification introduced in this set, with Baymax leading the charge. Robot characters often have synergies with Inventor‑type characters and feature unique abilities related to protection and cost reduction.<ref name="Polygon">{{cite web |title=Lorcana’s Azurite Sea brings Big Hero 6, Rescue Rangers to the high seas |url=https://www.polygon.com/disney-lorcana/2024/10/15/azurite-sea-big-hero-6-rescue-rangers |publisher=Polygon |date=October 15, 2024 |access-date=2026-04-21}}</ref>

=== Inventor synergies ===
The set introduces new synergies for '''Inventor'''-type characters. Many Inventor cards benefit from having items in play or work together to reduce costs and generate Lore. Key Inventor characters include Gadget Hackwrench, Hiro Hamada, and the cast of ''Big Hero 6''.<ref name="Polygon"/>

=== Pirate theme ===
Azurite Sea places a strong emphasis on '''Pirate'''-themed characters. Pirate cards often have abilities that stack well together, focusing on camaraderie and teamwork. For example, ''Jim Hawkins – Honorable Pirate'' allows players to look at the top cards of their deck and put Pirate characters directly into their hand, while ''Wendy Darling'' adds an extra attack and Lore when another Pirate is in play.<ref name="Polygon"/>

=== Location focus ===
The set brings Location cards back to the forefront. ''Moana – Kakamora Leader'' is a standout card in this regard – she costs 7 Ink to play, has 6 Strength and 5 Willpower, and can move any number of characters to the same location for free, earning 1 Lore for each character moved.<ref name="Polygon"/>
