Wizards of the Coast and Mattel have announced Secret Lair x Masters of the Universe: The Most Powerful Superdrop in the Universe, a new collection of five limited Magic: The Gatheringdrops inspired by the legendary heroes, villains, artifacts, and worlds of Masters of the Universe.
The Superdrop was first teased through select artwork during MagicCon: Amsterdam, giving fans an early look at how Eternia and Etheria are coming to Magic. Across the five drops, The Most Powerful Superdrop in the Universe brings together He-Man, Skeletor, She-Ra, the forces of good and evil, and the unmistakable fantasy action of Masters of the Universe through all-new artwork inspired by the franchise’s classic packaging, animation, and larger-than-life characters.
Secret Lair x Masters of the Universe: By the Power of Grayskull!brings He-Man and his allies to Magic with artwork inspired by classic Masters of the Universe packaging. When evil gets ambitious, He-Man raises the Sword of Power, Orko makes the battle more magical, Man-At-Arms makes sure it stays winnable, and Castle Grayskull remains the kind of place everyone has strong opinions about controlling.
Secret Lair x Masters of the Universe: Nyah-ha-ha! gives Skeletor the spotlight he would insist he already deserved. Inspired by classic animation cels and illustrated by Secret Lair artist Tyler Walpole, this drop follows the Lord of Destruction, his Evil Warriors, and a plan so brilliant that any setbacks should be considered temporary, irrelevant, and definitely someone else’s fault.
Secret Lair x Masters of the Universe: She-Ra, Princess of Power brings the Great Rebellion from Etheria to Magic. With She-Ra at the center, Bright Moon stands against the Horde with courage, resolve, and the kind of power that refuses to be commanded. Fans who collect the full Superdrop can also bring the drops together into a Masters of the Universe-themed Commander deck centered around She-Ra, Princess of Power.
Secret Lair x Masters of the Universe: Allies and Enemies of Eternia celebrates the larger world of Eternia, where every hero, villain, sorceress, beast, actor, and heavily armed plan seems to arrive with a name, a purpose, and a strong visual identity. Some protect Castle Grayskull. Some lurk around Snake Mountain. All of them make the battlefield more interesting.
Secret Lair x Masters of the Universe: Sold Separately gathers the essentials no battle between good and evil should be without: loyal mounts, legendary weapons, sinister thrones, and fortresses with presence. Heroism is included. Evil ambition is included. Some assembly may be required.
All Secret Lair x Masters of the Universe drops will be available in non-foil editions for $29.99 and foil editions for $39.99 through Secret Lair’s online store while supplies last.
These special limited quantity Secret Lair x Masters of the Universe drops will go on sale starting at 9 a.m. PT on September 14. Fans will also receive an exclusive foil Swan Song for every $149 spent, while supplies last.

Wizards of the Coast tackled one of Dungeons & Dragons’ greatest barriers to entry head-on by announcing and launching a new Looking For Group feature on D&D Beyond. Players now have three simple ways to find a D&D group: find local in-person events through an event finder, form tables with the online community via the D&D Discord server or find professional Dungeon Masters through a new partnership between D&D Beyond and StartPlaying. The StartPlaying partnership helps players immediately find a D&D game that’s right for them with a highly trained Dungeon Master waiting to take them on an adventure for the first time. For those first-time adventurers new to playing D&D or D&D Beyond online, Wizards of the Coast announced a special promotion where for a limited time, you can find and join a game on StartPlaying for $0.99. More information is available on the D&D Beyond website.
In addition to helping players find a group, the D&D Beyond team also unveiled a brand-new mobile app experience built on top of a new game platform that will be geared towards in-person play. This mobile experience is completely redesigned from the ground up to make it easier and more intuitive to play D&D your way. Look forward to this release in early 2027.
NEW PARTNERSHIP:
The Dungeons & Dragons team announced a new partnership program, working with studios across the tabletop game industry to bring official, annual TTRPG support for D&D’s most iconic campaign settings. Initial partnerships include Ghostfire Gaming with a new Ravenloft release (2027) and Visionary Productions with Eberron (2028) and Kobold Press with the Forgotten Realms (2028). In the years ahead, the program will expand to include additional settings, ensuring D&D’s most popular settings are all supported for their biggest fans.
During Wizards of the Coast‘s presentation during Gen Con 2026, writer, producer, and actor Joe Manganiello took the stage to announce his new role as Chief Creative Officer of D&D Icons, a new content program that brings legendary D&D creatives, including Margaret Weis, Tracy Hickman, and Luke Gygax, back to the table to work hands-on with fan-favorite settings.
One of the Icons projects announced on stage returns to one of the most influential fantasy settings of all time: Dragonlance, bringing back its original creators to direct a Dragonlance TTRPG product for the first time in over 20 years. Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman are working hand-in-hand on a new Dragonlance TTRPG book, compiling 40 years of knowledge and lore into the most ambitious Dragonlance volume ever.
Also under the Icons banner, Luke Gygax took the Gen Con stage to announce a new project built from never-before-seen, unfinished content left behind by his father and original D&D creator Gary Gygax. Luke will complete an adventure through his father’s eyes, tying back to Gary Gygax’s own vision, available as early as 2027.
RA Salvatore, whose books appeared more than 20 times on the New York Times bestseller list, announced that he will be working under the Icons program to bring back the most legendary Drow in the Forgotten Realms, Drizzt Do Urden.
Manganiello is launching a TTRPG world rooted in the dark fantasy art style and aesthetic he developed for his heavy metal / fantasy streetwear line, DEATH SAVES, as an official D&D collaboration under his ICONS banner.
GREYHAWK: CROWN OF THE WITCH QUEEN
Greyhawk continued as a theme at Gen Con with the reveal of Greyhawk: Crown of the Witch Queen.

Fans of Tasha got a double reveal at Gen Con: her role in the upcoming Warlock: Dungeons & Dragons video game was confirmed, with award-winning actor Maggie Robertson stepping into the role through voice and performance capture, opposite Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica, Lucifer), who leads the game as Kaatri. Warlock: Dungeons & Dragons is an original third-person, single-player action-adventure game set in a dark fantasy open world inspired by Dungeons & Dragons. Developed by Invoke Studios, the game casts players as Kaatri, a veteran warrior who makes a pact to wield otherworldly magic against dark powers.
