Wizards of the Coast Unveils ‘Magic: The Gathering’ ‘D&D 50th Anniversary’ Superdrop

Wizards of the Coast unveiled Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop, a wave of new Secret Lair sets for Magic: The Gathering, which will go onto DTC preorder on August 27, 2024 at 9 am PT.

The next Superdrop celebrates Dungeons & Dragons 50th anniversary with a variety of cards featuring classic monsters and characters. The most noteworthy feature of this drop, aside from the spectacular card art, is that WotC has changed its DTC order model starting with this Superdrop. These sets will still be available in limited quantities, but WotC has removed the timer and the end dates. Essentially, these products will stay on the Secret Lair store shelves until sold out or until WotC cleans up its online storefront (which will happen sporadically).

The sets in this wave, which were previously announced (see ” ‘D&D 50th Anniversary’ Secret Lairs“), have the following contents:
