Magic The Gathering Secret Lair Unveils Sonic the Hedgehog Superdrop: Release Date, Details, and Card List
Wizards of the Coast continues to push the boundaries of crossover content by announcing an all-new addition to its acclaimed Magic The Gathering Secret Lair series: the Sonic the Hedgehog Superdrop.
Following the recent and wildly successful launch of the Magic The Gathering x Final Fantasy crossover expansion, the Secret Lair initiative aims to embrace iconic gaming franchises, and Sonic the Hedgehog is the latest to join the roster.
The Secret Lair Sonic Superdrop arrives on July 14, 2025, at 9:00 a.m.
PT, accessible exclusively through magicsecretlair.com.
Unlike full Magic The Gathering set releases such as the extensive Final Fantasy collaboration, the Secret Lair line delivers curated, limited-time collections.
These special drops often consist of reimagined versions ("reskins") of classic Magic cards, while also occasionally debuting entirely new-to-Magic content.
The Secret Lair brand has previously featured crossover drops with beloved pop culture properties, including Street Fighter, Ghostbusters, The Walking Dead, and SpongeBob SquarePants.
Now, fans of the Blue Blur can celebrate one of gaming's most enduring mascots with a unique set of cards celebrating Sonic and his universe.
Breakdown of the Sonic Superdrop Collections:
1.
Secret Lair x Sonic: Friends and Foes
The flagship selection, Friends and Foes, introduces seven all-new, never-before-seen Magic cards featuring cherished characters from the Sonic franchise.
This main set includes Sonic the Hedgehog, Miles “Tails” Prower, Knuckles the Echidna, Amy Rose, Dr.
Eggman, Shadow the Hedgehog, and a special Super State card.
Each character is represented with mechanics uniquely themed to their in-game abilities, ensuring synergy—especially when Sonic is chosen as a Commander—according to statements from Wizards of the Coast.
2.
Secret Lair x Sonic: Turbo Gear
Turbo Gear reimagines seven existing artifact, vehicle, and token Magic cards as Sonic-themed equipment.
Highlights include Knuckles’s Gloves (based on The Reaver Cleaver), Air Shoes (from Swiftfoot Boots), Egg Hammer (from Myr Battlesphere), Piko Piko Hammer (from Hammer of Nazahan), Power Sneakers (from Lightning Greaves), Tornado (Sonic’s iconic biplane, from Weatherlight), and Egg Pawn as a unique Myr token.
3.
Secret Lair x Sonic: Chasing Adventure
Chasing Adventure offers seven reworked Magic spells, featuring all-new Sonic-inspired artwork.
This drop brings fresh aesthetics to popular cards like Generous Gift, Open the Armory, Fabricate, Deadly Dispute, Unexpected Windfall, Sol Ring, and a Treasure token.
Secret Lair Sonic Superdrop Pricing and Availability:
Collectors and Sonic fans can secure the non-foil Friends and Foes set for $39.99, with a premium rainbow foil edition available at $49.99.
Turbo Gear and Chasing Adventure are priced at $29.99 and $39.99 for non-foil and rainbow foil versions, respectively.
These time-limited drops are expected to be in high demand given past Secret Lair releases.
A Legacy of Crossovers and Milestones
Magic The Gathering’s Secret Lair series has a reputation for delivering distinctive crossover moments, and the Sonic Superdrop continues that legacy.
With Sonic the Hedgehog celebrating its 34th anniversary this year, this partnership underscores Sonic's enduring cultural impact within both video games and collectible card games.
Wizards of the Coast, building on their expertise in both analog and digital card gaming, cements Magic The Gathering’s place as a cultural touchstone, constantly innovating with prestigious partnerships.
