The Short Answer

The God of War Secret Lair is two drops, God of War: Greek and God of War: Norse, sold on 27 October 2025 for $39.99 non-foil or $49.99 foil each. On TCGplayer on 13 November 2026, Greek trades at $97.79 non-foil and $126.04 foil, about 2.5 times its price. Norse trades at $39.18 non-foil, $0.81 under its price, and $62.81 foil.

The Kratos MTG card everyone looks for is Kratos, God of War: $42.81 non-foil, $52.32 foil, with no other printing. Buy Greek if you want a sealed God of War drop: it costs about what its cards and bonus card are worth as singles. Skip Norse sealed: its cards cost $10.79 less as singles, and the Atreus and Kratos partner pair is $12.82.

A Secret Lair is Wizards of the Coast's online store for small themed sets of Magic: The Gathering cards, sold for a limited time and shipped weeks later. Many cards in a crossover drop are existing Magic cards with new art and a new name printed above the Magic name; they play exactly like the original. Our MTG Secret Lair guide explains how drops and the sale queue work.

The two God of War drops were part of the seven-drop PlayStation Superdrop, which our PlayStation Secret Lair guide covers as a whole. This page goes deeper on the God of War drops: every card and what it does, which God of War character or moment each card shows, the prices of the sealed drops and singles on 13 November 2026, and which of the two to buy.

What Is in the God of War: Greek Secret Lair?

Five cards: one new card, Kratos, God of War, and four red reprints renamed for Kratos's war on Olympus, plus Calliope's Song as the bonus card. Wizards' product page calls it "a new design for Kratos, seen in his war against the Greek gods", in "a mono-red drop", and adds that "now, he can become your commander!" The page opens with his line "The time of the gods has come to an end!"

TCGplayer market prices, 13 November 2026. All cards are borderless with an inverted frame (Scryfall).

Kratos, God of War: what the card does

Kratos, God of War costs {R}{R}{R} for a 2/3 God Warrior with double strike. It gives all creatures haste, yours and your opponents', and at the beginning of each player's end step it deals damage to that player equal to the number of their creatures that didn't attack that turn. It punishes every player, you included, for holding creatures back. MTGPrice's Cliff Daigle called it "the reddest red card ever" before release, and suggested pairing it with Peacekeeper, which stops creatures from attacking at all.

It is the only printing of the card. On EDHREC on 13 November 2026, 10,046 decks use it as their commander and it appears in 17,300 decks in all. Wizards says it is legal in Commander, Legacy and Vintage, not in Standard, Pioneer or Modern.

The four Greek reprints

  • Battle of Olympus (World at War): five mana for an extra combat phase and main phase after your second main phase, untapping the creatures that attacked; rebound lets you cast it again free next turn. With Kratos, God of War, that is two double-strike combats this turn and two more next turn. Wizards' product text picks it out as the card that gives Kratos "extra combat steps".
  • The Blades of Chaos Bond (Rite of Flame): one mana for {R}{R}, plus {R} for each copy in every graveyard. The printed text refers to "each card named The Blades of Chaos Bond", but it counts any Rite of Flame. It is banned in Modern.
  • Hades Grip (Sulfuric Vortex): deals 2 damage to each player at their upkeep and stops all life gain. Not legal in Modern; legal in Legacy and Commander.
  • Kratos' Rage (Pyrohemia): {R}: 1 damage to each creature and each player, sacrificed at the end step if no creatures are on the battlefield. At $14.65 it is the second most valuable of the five drop cards, after Kratos.

Calliope's Song, the Greek bonus card

Calliope's Song is Seething Song (SLD 7051): three mana for {R}{R}{R}{R}{R}, a ritual used in storm and fast Commander decks and banned in Modern. Its flavour text is Kratos's "No! I will not let the gods take her from me again." Calliope is Kratos's daughter. At $17.87 non-foil it is the most valuable bonus card in the whole PlayStation Superdrop, and MTGRocks called it "the only relevant card from a value perspective" among the seven bonus cards on 10 November 2025.

What Is in the God of War: Norse Secret Lair?

Four cards, one fewer than every other PlayStation drop: two new cards, Atreus, Impulsive Son and Kratos, Stoic Father, plus a reversible Mimir card and Freya. The bonus card is Unbreakable Formation. Wizards' product page sets it after Kratos's "path of vengeance through Mt. Olympus", when he and his son Atreus set out to honour his late wife's final wishes and are drawn toward Ragnarök. It opens with Kratos's line "Do not be sorry, be better."

TCGplayer market prices, 13 November 2026.

Atreus and Kratos, Stoic Father: Partner—Father & son

Kratos, Stoic Father costs {2}{R}{W} for a 4/4 God Warrior. Whenever you attack with one or more Gods, and whenever a God dies, you get an experience counter; at your end step you put +1/+1 counters equal to your experience counters on a target creature.

Atreus, Impulsive Son costs {1}{U}{R} for a 2/4 God Archer with reach. For {3} and tapping him, you draw a card for each experience counter you have, discard a card, and Atreus deals 2 damage to each opponent.

Both have Partner—Father & son, so they can lead a Commander deck only with each other, in blue, red and white. Both are Gods, so attacking with either starts the experience counters, and Kratos, God of War is a red God that fits in the same deck. The pair has 14,318 EDHREC decks on 13 November 2026, more than any God of War card on its own, and it pushed up older Gods: MTGRocks noted that "almost every MTG God that can see play in Kratos will show up there".

Mimir's Ancient Wisdom and Freya

  • Mimir's Ancient Wisdom (Teferi's Ageless Insight) is a reversible card: one side shows Mimir trapped in a tree, the other Mimir as a head, and Wizards' store page says you can play either. If you would draw a card except the first in each draw step, you draw two instead. The two sides carry different quotes: "I have the answer to your every question." and "Okay, there are a few gaps in my knowledge."
  • Freya, Queen of the Valkyries (Iroas, God of Victory) is indestructible, gives your creatures menace and prevents all damage to your attacking creatures. It is only a 7/4 creature while your devotion to red and white is seven or more. On 13 November 2026 this is the cheapest Iroas printing on Scryfall ($9.89, against $10.20 for the Commander 2016 copy), and its foil at $16.17 is the most valuable Norse card in any finish.

Unbreakable Formation, the Norse bonus card

Unbreakable Formation (SLD 7052) gives your creatures indestructible until end of turn, plus a +1/+1 counter and vigilance if cast in your main phase. Its art, by Immanuela Crovius, shows Kratos holding Atreus. At $1.49 it adds almost nothing to the drop's value.

Which God of War Characters and Moments Became Which Cards?

How Much Is the God of War Secret Lair Worth Now?

God of War: Greek is worth $97.79 non-foil and $126.04 foil; God of War: Norse is worth $39.18 non-foil and $62.81 foil (TCGplayer market prices, 13 November 2026). Prices have barely moved in the last two weeks:

The 1 November figures are from our MTG Secret Lair resale table and the 8 November figures from our PlayStation Secret Lair guide. The cheapest TCGplayer listings on 13 November 2026 were $96.00 for Greek non-foil, $127.65 for Greek foil, $36.00 for Norse non-foil and $59.97 for Norse foil.

Sealed vs singles

EditionDrop cards as singlesWith bonus cardSealedVerdict
Greek non-foil$78.54$96.41$97.79Sealed costs $1.38 more than all six singles
Greek foil$98.09$119.22$126.04Sealed costs $6.82 more
Norse non-foil$26.90$28.39$39.18Singles $10.79 cheaper
Norse foil$35.75$37.95$62.81Singles $24.86 cheaper

TCGplayer market prices, 13 November 2026. TCGplayer's sealed listings name only the drop cards in their contents, so ask the seller whether the bonus card is included; without it, the five Greek non-foil cards cost $19.25 less than the sealed drop.

What the numbers say:

  • Kratos carries Greek. At $42.81, Kratos, God of War is 55% of the five Greek non-foil cards. Kratos' Rage ($14.65) and Battle of Olympus ($10.77) are the next most valuable.
  • Norse is priced as a collectible, not as cards. No Norse card is worth more than $10 in non-foil, and the sealed drop costs 38% more than all five cards together.
  • Foil Norse holds the largest premium. $62.81 sealed for cards worth $37.95, a gap of $24.86. The PlayStation guide found the same on 8 November.

How Much Is the Kratos MTG Card Worth?

Kratos, God of War is worth $42.81 non-foil and $52.32 foil on TCGplayer (13 November 2026), the cheapest listing $40.33 non-foil. It is the second most valuable card in the PlayStation Superdrop after Jin Sakai, Ghost of Tsushima (see our Ghost of Tsushima Secret Lair guide). On 8 November it was $45.44 non-foil, so it has dropped $2.63 in five days while the sealed drop held steady.

Kratos, Stoic Father, the Norse Kratos, is worth $9.45 non-foil and $10.26 foil. Both Kratos cards exist only in these drops.

You are paying for the God of War art

Every reprint in these drops except Freya has a cheaper printing, so the God of War version's price over that is what the art is worth to buyers (cheapest non-foil printing on Scryfall, 13 November 2026):

The Greek reprints carry a real premium; the Norse drop's reprints barely any. Seething Song was about $6.10 when MTGRocks checked in November 2025; its April 2026 reprint in Secrets of Strixhaven now sells for $0.34, so nearly all of Calliope's Song's price is the God of War art. The Star Trek Commander World at War came out on 13 November 2026, so its price is from release day; before it, Battle of Olympus was the cheapest World at War (the next, The List, is $11.26).

Is the God of War Secret Lair Worth Buying? Greek vs Norse

Buy God of War: Greek; skip God of War: Norse sealed. On 13 November 2026:

  • God of War: Greek ($97.79 non-foil): the better buy. Sealed costs about the same as its five cards and bonus card bought one by one ($96.41), it has held about 2.4 times its launch price for at least two weeks, and Kratos, God of War is a single-printing commander in over 10,000 decks. If you only want to play Kratos, buy the single for $42.81 instead.
  • God of War: Norse ($39.18 non-foil): buy the singles. All five cards cost $28.39, and the Atreus and Kratos, Stoic Father partner pair, the reason most people want this drop, is $12.82. Sealed Norse only makes sense if you collect sealed Secret Lairs or want the reversible Mimir card in its packaging.
  • Foil: Greek foil at $126.04 is $28.25 more than non-foil. Norse foil at $62.81 is the worst value of the four: $24.86 over its singles.
  • Both drops for a Kratos collection: $136.97 for the two non-foil drops, against $79.98 at launch.

Can You Still Buy the God of War Secret Lair?

Not reliably from Wizards; TCGplayer is where to buy. God of War: Greek sold out on 27 or 28 October 2025 (MTGRocks). The US Secret Lair store pages for both drops were still online on 13 November 2026, but their stock status did not load when we checked, so we can't say whether Norse is still for sale there. No reprint or restock of any PlayStation drop has been announced. Non-foil copies were also scheduled for retail stores in December 2025 (ICv2), so a local store may still have one.

To sell a God of War drop you already own, see our guide to where to sell MTG cards.

Is God of War: Greek Rainbow Foil or Traditional Foil?

Wizards' announcement lists Greek as rainbow foil and Norse as traditional foil. TCGplayer sells both God of War foil versions as the "Traditional Foil Edition" and prices their foil singles as regular foils, while it lists the other five PlayStation drops as "Rainbow Foil Edition" with separate rainbow foil singles. We think Greek shipped in traditional foil like Norse, but we haven't seen a copy to confirm it. Check the listing photos if the foil type matters to you.

Yes. Wizards says the new PlayStation cards, which include Kratos, God of War, Kratos, Stoic Father and Atreus, Impulsive Son, are legal in Commander, Legacy and Vintage, and not in Standard, Pioneer or Modern. The reprints keep the legality the card already had: per Scryfall, Rite of Flame and Seething Song are banned in Modern, Sulfuric Vortex is not Modern-legal, and the others are legal in Modern.
