Want to learn how to get your hands on some Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel secret packs? These booster card packs are guaranteed to contain four of the eight cards featured in the preview. The other four are random, though all of the cards contained within a secret pack generally focus on a particular card or archetype, making them an excellent way to add specific types to your deck.

Once unlocked, these packs cost gems to buy, which you can acquire by completing quests and progressing through the game. You can also purchase gems for actual money. That said, as secret packs are only available for 24 hours after you unlock them, it's worth having some gems on hand in order to grab as many as you want.

It's also worth considering which card—or cards—you're after. So if you're ready to dive in, here's how to get Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel secret packs and a list of all available.

Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel secret packs: How to get them 

Secret packs are unlocked whenever you obtain a Super Rare or Ultra Rare card. You can get these cards by crafting them or from booster packs, including the secret packs themselves. Be aware that obtaining a Super Rare card only unlocks a secret pack—you need to use 100 gems to buy it. You can earn gems in-game by completing missions or you can buy them with real money, so make sure you have enough saved up to avoid disappointment, as secret packs are only available for 24 hours after you discover them.

The good news is that you can buy the same secret pack multiple times in that 24-hour window, as long as you have the gems for it.
