Exclusive Collaboration Magic: The Gathering Secret Lair x Sonic The Hedgehog
Magic: The Gathering (MTG), the legendary collectible card game from Wizards of the Coast, returns with a surprise through its latest collaboration. This time, they teamed up with classic video game icon, Sonic the Hedgehog from SEGA, in the upcoming Secret Lair series.

Secret Lair is an exclusive product line from MTG that presents special cards with unique themes, exclusive artwork, and sometimes crossovers with popular culture franchises. Previously, Secret Lair has collaborated with various franchises like The Walking Dead, Street Fighter, and Lord of the Rings. Now, it's Sonic and his friends’ turn to enter the Magic world.
Secret Lair “Sonic the Hedgehog” will contain six Magic cards illustrated with iconic characters from the SEGA franchise. Each card is redesigned with Sonic's distinctive visual style but still maintains the original effects and mechanics of MTG. Here are some details:
- Sonic the Hedgehog is represented as the card “Sonic, the Blue Blur” with the haste ability (fast running) and effects depicting his speed.
- Tails (Miles “Tails” Prower) appears as a support card, with abilities to assist and strengthen other cards.
- Knuckles the Echidna is portrayed as a tough fighter, true to his original character.
- Dr. Eggman (Robotnik) appears as the antagonist with abilities to destroy and control the battlefield.
- Amy Rose and Shadow the Hedgehog also appear as special cards, completing the lineup of Sonic fans’ favorite characters.
Secret Lair Sonic the Hedgehog will be available for pre-order starting July 26, 2025, through the official Secret Lair website. This set will only be sold for a limited time, as is tradition with Secret Lair. Besides the physical version, a digital option for Magic: The Gathering Arena will also be available.
