This unexpected partnership will bring a fresh and exciting twist to the MTG community, with the Secret Lair x Hatsune Miku: Sakura Superstar drop set to debut on May 13.
The Sakura Superstar drop is the first of four planned releases of Hatsune Miku-themed sets in Magic’s Secret Lair limited-time shop. Each drop will revolve around a different season, with Sakura Superstar highlighting the annual blooming of cherry blossoms in Japan. This thematic choice is a nod to the traditional beauty and symbolism of sakura, adding a touch of elegance to the Magic universe.
In this special collaboration, players can expect to find six cards in the Secret Lair x Hatsune Miku: Sakura Superstar drop.

This unique blend of MTG mechanics and Hatsune Miku aesthetics is sure to attract both seasoned players and fans of the virtual idol.
Hatsune Miku is the latest in a line of video game franchises to make their way into the Magic: The Gathering realm through Secret Lair sets. Previous collaborations have featured iconic games like Tomb Raider, Street Fighter, Fortnite, and Fallout. The inclusion of Hatsune Miku adds a fresh and vibrant energy to the Magic universe, showing the versatility and creativity of the game’s design team.
The Secret Lair Spring Superdrop 2024, including the Hatsune Miku: Sakura Superstar drop, will be available for purchase on May 13 at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET.
