What happened

Magic: The Gathering's Star Trek set, a Universes Beyond release drawing on ships, heroes and villains from 60 years of the franchise's TV shows and films, launches on November 13, 2026. Prerelease events are running at Wizards Play Network (WPN) stores from November 6 to 12, according to Wizards of the Coast's WPN announcement.

Why it matters for collectors

Universes Beyond crossovers tend to draw both regular Magic players and franchise fans, and event-exclusive promos are usually only available for a limited window. If you want specific promos such as the Solemn Simulacrum, plan around the event dates above.

What Canadian collectors should know

The events run through local WPN stores, so check with your local game store for prerelease seats and league schedules. Singles and promos from the set can be bought and sold in CAD on TCE once they hit the market.
