Magic: the Gathering's Monster Hunter reveal went so poorly that the whole thing is delayed: 'Back to the drawing board'

Last week Magic: the Gathering announced its Monster Hunter collaboration, to which PC Gamer's Lincoln Carpenter replied "hell yeah." But after MTG shared details on the long-awaited Secret Lair drop, the internet replied—and I'm paraphrasing here—hell no. Now Wizards of the Coast is delaying the set so it can get it right.

As the company announced in a blog post titled "Back to the Drawing Board with Secret Lair x Monster Hunter," the superdrop is delayed until some point in 2026. "Let's cut to the chase," the post reads. "[The drop] we revealed last week fell short of expectations. We heard loud and clear that you were disappointed, and we believe we can do better. So, we're going to postpone this release and rework this Superdrop entirely."
