IGN received an unexpected supply drop today from Wizards of the Coast in the form of two upcoming Magic: The Gathering Secret Lair drops, both of which feature Fortnite crossover cards. While this crossover was previously announced, getting this box in the mail is the first we’ve seen of the specific cards in the drops, which you can take a look at in the gallery below:
The two drops are titled “Secret Lair x Fortnite” and “Secret Lair x Fortnite: Landmarks and Locations,” the latter of which is a set of five full-art basic lands (one of each type). The main drop features the following seven cards reskinned with Fortnite art and names:
Shrinking Storm (Wrath of God)Dance Battle (Dance of Many)Supply Llama (Etherium Sculptor)Crack the Vault (Grim Tutor)Battle Royale (Triumph of the Hordes)Battle Bus (Smuggler’s Copter)The Cube (Planar Bridge)
Both sets also have a secret card that WOTC has asked us not to spoil quite yet. (Who doesn’t love a surprise?) We don’t have all the details on these drops just yet, but both will go on sale starting July 21 at 9am PT on the Secret Lair website. One thing we can assume is that the fancy box they arrived in is not standard.
This isn’t the first video game crossover Magic has had, and it likely won’t be the last. I intereviewed the minds behind Magic last year alongside dozens of community members to hear about how the game is changing amidst record success, as well as the slightly contentious practice of licensed crossovers like these Fortnite drops.
