What is Magic: The Gathering Star Trek?
Magic: The Gathering Star Trek is a Universes Beyond crossover set that brings 60 years of Star Trek into Magic, releasing worldwide on 13 November 2026. It carries the set code TRK, with a companion Star Trek Commander set (TRC) and a run of "stardates" reprint cards (SDS) shipping alongside it. For UK collectors, this is one of the biggest crossovers of the year — arriving right in the run-up to Christmas and timed to Star Trek's 60th anniversary.
The set spans every era of the franchise, from Kirk's original crew to Janeway's Voyager and the Borg. Wizards of the Coast has described it as "designed by Star Trek fans, for Star Trek fans," and it follows the same Universes Beyond playbook as recent hits like the Marvel and The Hobbit sets — full Standard legality for the main set, plus ready-to-play Commander decks for the tabletop crowd.
When is the Magic: The Gathering Star Trek UK release date?
The Magic: The Gathering Star Trek UK release date is 13 November 2026, the same global tabletop launch day used worldwide. UK dates for Universes Beyond sets normally mirror North America to the day, so 13 November is what UK collectors should plan around. A few dates worth pinning to the calendar, as of August 2026:
- Prerelease events: 6–12 November 2026 at participating UK stores.
- MTG Arena release: 10 November 2026.
- Global tabletop release: 13 November 2026.
Pre-orders are already open through official channels ahead of launch. Hot Universes Beyond sets tend to sell their first UK allocation quickly, so securing a pre-order — especially on Collector Boosters — is the safest way to land sealed product at RRP rather than chasing restocks later.
Magic: The Gathering Star Trek products and UK pricing
Star Trek follows the modern Universes Beyond product line-up: two booster types, four Commander decks, and a spread of bundles and boxes. The prices below are the official US MSRPs confirmed by Wizards of the Coast; UK RRPs are shown as estimates because exact UK pricing is typically confirmed nearer release. Treat the GBP figures as a planning guide, not a final quote.
| Product | Contents | US MSRP | Est. UK RRP |
|---|---|---|---|
| Play Booster | 14 cards per pack | $6.99 | ~£6–7 |
| Collector Booster | 15 cards, premium slots | $37.99 | ~£34–40 |
| Commander Deck | 100-card ready-to-play deck | $74.99 | ~£55–65 |
| Collector's Edition Commander Deck | All-surge-foil Commander deck | $159.99 | ~£130–150 |
| Bundle | 9 Play Boosters + lands + extras | $69.99 | ~£55–60 |
| Beam Me Up Bundle | 8 Play + 1 Collector Booster + promos | $99.99 | ~£75–85 |
| Beginner Box | 10 Jumpstart half-decks | $34.99 | ~£28–34 |
| Scene Box | 3 Play Boosters + 6 foil scene cards | $41.99 | ~£34–40 |
Two booster boxes anchor the range: the Play Booster Box holds 30 Play Boosters (the draft-and-play option), while the Collector Booster Box holds 12 Collector Boosters (the premium, foil-heavy chase option). If you're weighing which to buy, the comparison further down breaks it out.
Star Trek Play Booster Box — 30 Play Boosters, 14 cards each. The value pick for drafting and cracking packs.
Star Trek Collector Booster Box — 12 Collector Boosters, the only place the signed actor cards and surge foils appear.
What are the chase cards in Magic: The Gathering Star Trek?
The headline chase in Magic: The Gathering Star Trek is the set of 7 hand-signed actor cards. Each depicts an instantly recognisable character — Captain Kirk and Captain Janeway among them — printed and then physically signed by the actor who played them, at roughly 250 copies per card. They land only in Collector Boosters, and Wizards has called them "unlike anything we've done before for Magic." Beyond the signatures, the set is loaded with themed treatments collectors will chase:
- Stardates cards (30): powerful Magic reprints — such as Sheoldred, the Apocalypse reimagined as "Khan, Engineered Evil" — reframed with Star Trek artwork.
- LCARS frame cards (29) and LCARS shock lands (10): all ten shock lands appear here in the Enterprise's iconic on-screen interface styling, with surge foils exclusive to Collector Boosters.
- Classic Enterprise cards (24): a painterly, retro-poster treatment that nods to Original Series-era theatrical art.
- Scene cards (25): borderless art that spans multiple cards, plus two dedicated Scene Boxes (Divergent Timeline and Enterprise-Q).
Play Booster Box vs Collector Booster Box: which should UK collectors buy?
The quick answer: buy the Play Booster Box to open lots of cards, draft with friends and build decks; buy the Collector Booster Box if you're chasing the signed cards, surge foils and extended-art rares. Here's how the two compare.
| Feature | Play Booster Box | Collector Booster Box |
|---|---|---|
| Boosters per box | 30 | 12 |
| Cards per booster | 14 | 15 |
| Signed actor cards | No | Yes (Collector-exclusive) |
| Surge foil Booster Fun | No | Yes |
| Best for | Drafting, sealed play, volume | Chasing premium foils & signatures |
New mechanics to know
Star Trek introduces flavour-first mechanics that also matter at the table. Assimilate lets you take control of a creature and turn it into a Borg artifact creature. Federation cares about how many creature types your non-Borg creatures share. "Face a dilemma" rewards you whenever you choose modes on a spell or ability, and Spacecraft with the station keyword — returning from Edge of Eternities — can power up and even crew into creatures. Four preconstructed Commander decks ship at launch: Federation Fleet, Landing Party, Klingon Fury and We Are the Borg.
