One popular sci-fi property is the talk of the Magic: The Gathering community right now, and it's not Star Trek. On Nov. 12, leaks started to emerge online about a Dune Secret Lair drop, and while still unconfirmed, this new Universes Beyond collaboration seems legitimate. Three Dune Secret Lairs have been revealed in posts on Reddit, after a first leak emerged on Discord. The alleged name of the superdrop is My Arrakis, My Secret Lair. The names of the individual drops have not been revealed yet, but at least two of them, if confirmed, will quickly become coveted items for players and collectors. Leaked Dune Secret Lair introduces 8 new legendary creatures Image: Legendary Pictures/Wizards of the Coast The first of the three Dune Secret Lair drops focuses entirely on iconic characters from the franchise created by Frank Herbert. These eight legendary creatures are completely new to Magic, and offer a plethora of options for Commander players looking for ways to reinforce their favorite decks and strategies. Paul Atreides appears in two variants. Paul Atreides, Ducal Heir, is a cheap white creature that quickly gets bigger thanks to Training and, after hitting 4 power, starts growing your board. Muad'Dib, Prophet Foretold, represents Paul after his ascension in Arrakis. This creature synergizes with self-mill strategies, and it quickly turns into a cheaper Future Sight. Other interesting cards in this drop include Padishah Emperor Shaddam IV, which will fit perfectly in any black treasures deck, and Chani, Blade of Sietch Tabr, an aggressive Gruul Landfall commander that synergizes well with desert cards (perfect flavor!). One of the Dune Secret Lairs is full of valuable reprints Image: Legendary Pictures/Wizards of the Coast If you don't care much about new cards and are instead looking for cheap ways to get your hands on some of the expensive staples in Commander, one of the leaked Dune Secret Lairs is perfect for you. This unnamed drop includes five reprints with an overall expected average value of $75, a pretty sweet deal for a single drop. The most expensive card in this Dune Secret Lair is Darksteel Forge, coming in the form of Pain Box (not sure about the flavor on this one!). Darksteel Forge is a staple in any artifact deck, and it currently sells for an average of $43 on TGCplayer.com. The next-best card in the drop is Revel in Riches, which sells for an average of $20, and pairs perfectly well with Padishah Emperor Shaddam IV, in case you're thinking of getting the whole superdrop. Halo Fountain and Hedge Shredder are a step down in terms of price, but they're still useful cards to have in your collection. Cultivator Caravan is the cheapest card in the drop, but there is also a really nice-looking treasure token to round things up. Image: Legendary Pictures/Wizards of the Coast The third Dune Secret Lair comes with strong wurm flavor. It contains another new, unique card: Shai-Hulud, the iconic sandworm inhabiting the deserts of Arrakis. The leak doesn't show the power or toughness of the card, but its rules text is impressive. Shai-Hulud has Trample and Indestructible, and when it comes into play it destroys all artifacts and enchantments. Then, for each player who lost a permanent this way, you can search your library for a basic land or desert and put it into play tapped. Considering how popular enchantments and artifacts are in Commander, Shai-Hulud looks like a solid board wipe and finisher packed into one card. Unfortunately, the other cards in this drop are far from impressive or valuable. Dune is the sci-fi franchise that Magic players wanted Based on the reactions to the leak, if this Secret Lair superdrop is officially confirmed, it will be very popular with Magic players. Besides the expected value of the drops, many fans online are praising the art and flavor on the cards, making an inevitable comparison with Magic: The Gathering — Star Trek, which got a much colder reception. Dune: Part Three, the final movie in Denis Villeneuve's trilogy of Dune movies, will come out on Dec. 18, 2026. If this Secret Lair drop has been timed to coincide with the movie release, we can expect it around mid-December. If the leaks are real, it's also very likely that Wizards of the Coast will decide to reveal the drop officially soon.
