Everyone's favorite pizza-eating superheroes are making their way to the popular trading card game. The well-known trading card game's company, Wizards of the Coast, revealed a much-awaited Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles expansion at a special panel held at New York Comic Con. Could this be a radical new set or simply another Universes Beyond marketing move? Let you decide.

Check out below at all the details announced from the Magic x Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles set, including some useful context. All items mentioned below releases on March 6th, 2026, with one exception — the Pizza Bundle drops a couple of weeks after on March 27.

MTG x TMNT: Main Set Cards

Before we get into all the various unique products and collections on offer, let’s take a look at all the cards from the main Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles expansion that were revealed by the developers. Play boosters for the set are set at $6.99 per pack, while premium boosters should run $37.99 per booster.

Let’s explore a few surprising details. To begin, there's a new mechanic named Sneak, inspired by the pre-existing Ninjutsu, where players can play big creatures into the game field when an attacker isn’t blocked. The big difference here is that Sneak can affect non-creature spells too. The designers also took the opportunity to clean up the mechanic a bit (Sneak is treated as casting, as opposed to the older mechanic). Ninjutsu is staying, but it's more likely players will encounter the new mechanic in future sets moving forward.

“If we ever were to return to the Kamigawa plane, we might use the original ability since that's where it originated and it is iconic of that world,” a senior game designer explained. “But in other settings, since the mechanics are smoother and the new ability will be Standard-legal, it’s probable we’ll use the updated version.”

Another version of the leader Turtle, Sewer Samurai card, is among four cards with special art created exclusively for the expansion by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles original artist Kevin Eastman.

Oh, and, if you're shocked by the rules text on Turtles Forever card, which allows playing game cards that aren't in your deck, many players were. Yet according to Wizards, that's now a legal card in all formats of Magic.

Anyway, here are the extremely bizarre land cards with full art from this set:

Following the company’s current policy, these cards are all legal in Magic’s Standard format. Developers state they were careful to make sure the new cards and gameplay elements meshed well with other Standard sets like Edge of Eternities.

“I headed the design for over a year and we knew it was going to be in standard and which sets would be near it in Standard,” a lead designer commented. “We designed to make sure that they work well with certain expansions including Edge of Eternities.”

As an instance, each of TMNT and Edge of Eternities feature a blue-red strategy built around artifact cards.

“They mesh together to provide the pieces for a enjoyable Standard-legal deck,” he says.

Commander Deck: Turtle Power!

After declining to create any pre-constructed Commander decks for Spider-Man and the forthcoming Avatar: The Last Airbender expansions, Wizards is changing direction with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It’s only a single precon, but it includes six distinct legendary cards that can serve as your commander based on how you combine them (five of the cards have a special Partner mechanic named “Character Select” that lets you start with two of them in the command area rather than only one). Take a look for yourself:

This Commander deck is priced at $69.99, though the price may rise based on popularity. Sources told that it includes 43 new cards in total, which translates to an extra 37 Turtle-themed cards besides the six legendary creatures pictured above. (Doing some rough math, this suggests approximately 20 reprints if we assume the precon includes 37 land cards.)

What will the Turtles edition of Sol Ring appear? Fans must wait and find out.

TMNT Bundle (Standard Edition)

As per usual, the company is offering a bundle. This one costs $69.99 and contains the following:

• Nine Standard Boosters
• 15 Foil land cards
• 15 Non-foil land cards
• 2 helper cards
• One Foil promo card
• 1 Oversized spindown life counter
• One Card-storage box

Pizza Bundle

Here’s a special idea for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles set, mostly in that it comes in a box resembling a pizza delivery box. Each pizza-themed bundle costs $99.99 and includes the items below:

• 9 Play Boosters
• One Collector Booster
• Twenty-five Regular pizza-themed lands
• 5 Traditional foil pizza basic lands
• 2 Foil pizza bundle promotional cards
• Two helper cards
• One Oversized spindown life counter
• One storage box

If you’re wondering about the “Pizza Bundle promo card” means, it’s basically a reprinted older card with brand-new Turtle-themed artwork. Wizards showed an example for the well-known Magic card Dark Ritual featuring art of master Splinter adding toppings onto a pizza. In total, there are six distinct pizza promos in total.

This special bundle releases a couple of weeks later than the main set on March 27, 2026.

Draft Night

This unique product is made for a four-player draft and costs $119.99. It includes:

• Twelve Standard Boosters (the perfect amount four people to draft)
• One Collector Booster (aka, the prize for coming in first)
• 90 Regular land cards (to build your deck)
• Ten Non-foil double-sided tokens
• 1 drafting guide (a single-page instruction sheet to drafting this expansion)

Cooperative Play Set

Finally, Wizards are doing something new with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as in line with its ongoing effort to create Magic game products specifically for new players. Here, the cooperative set is a unique product of decks that let you and a friend team up to face a “Boss” enemy deck that plays automatically.

The general idea here that every Boss card grants unique powers to the creatures contained in the boss deck. Each Boss automatically casts an additional card each turn, and you’ll start off battling {one Boss|
