The world's favorite pizza-loving heroes are making their way to the popular trading card game. The popular trading card game's company, the game's creators, unveiled a much-awaited Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles collaboration during a exclusive panel held at New York Comic Con. Is this a radical addition or yet another crossover marketing move? We'll let you be the judge.

Take a look below at all the details announced from the Magic x Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles collaboration, including some useful context. All items listed below launches on March 6, 2026, with one exception — a special Pizza Bundle drops a couple of weeks after on March 27th.

MTG x TMNT: Core Set Reveals

Before we get into the many unique products and collections available, let’s take a look at all the cards from the main Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles expansion unveiled by Wizards. Play boosters for the expansion are priced at $6.99 per pack, while Collector Boosters are priced at $37.99 per booster.

Let’s explore a couple of surprising details. First, a new gameplay mechanic named Sneak Attack, inspired by the pre-existing Ninjutsu ability, where players can play powerful creatures into the battlefield whenever an attacking creature goes unblocked. The big difference in this case is that this new ability can affect spells that aren’t creatures as well. The designers also took the opportunity to clean up the ability a bit (Sneak counts as casting, unlike Ninjutsu). Ninjutsu isn't going away, but it's more likely we'll see the new mechanic in future sets moving forward.

Should we were to return to the Kamigawa plane, it’s possible we’d use the original ability because that plane is it was developed and it’s a hallmark of that world,” a senior game designer stated. “However in other settings, since the rules are cleaner and Sneak will be Standard-legal, it's more likely that we'd use Sneak.”

Another version of the leader Turtle, Sewer Samurai, is among four cards with unique artwork designed specifically for the expansion by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman.

Oh, and, if you're shocked by the rules text on Turtles Forever card, which lets you play cards that aren't in your main deck, many players were. But as per the developers, it’s now a official card in every format of Magic.

Anyway, here are the extremely bizarre full-art lands from this set:

Following the company’s current policy, these cards are all legal in Magic’s Standard play. The designers say they were careful to ensure the cards and mechanics worked smoothly with other Standard sets such as Edge of Eternities.

“I headed the development for 15 months and we knew it would be in standard and which sets were going to be near it in Standard,” a lead designer says. “Our goal was to ensure that they work well with some of those sets like Edge of Eternities.”

As an instance, both TMNT and Edge of Eternities include a blue-red archetype focused on artifact cards.

“They mesh together to provide the pieces for a fun Standard deck,” the designer says.

Preconstructed Commander: Turtle Power!

After declining to design any pre-constructed Commander decks for the Spider-Man set and the upcoming Avatar: The Last Airbender collaborations, the company is reversing course with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It’s only one precon, but it does come with six different legendary cards who could work as your Commander depending on how you pair them (five cards include a unique partner ability named “Character Select” that lets you start with two commanders in the command area instead of just one). Check them out for yourself:

The Turtle Power deck is set at $69.99, although the price may rise due to popularity. Wizards told that it includes 43 brand-new cards in total, which translates to an extra 37 TMNT-themed cards in addition to the six legendary creatures shown above. (Doing some rough math, this suggests approximately 20 reprinted cards if we estimate the precon includes 37 lands.)

How will the TMNT edition of Sol Ring look like? We’ll just have to wait and find out.

TMNT Bundle (Regular)

As per usual, the company is offering a bundle. It is priced at $69.99 and contains the following:

• 9 Play Boosters
• 15 Foil basic lands
• Fifteen Regular land cards
• 2 helper cards
• 1 Foil promo card
• One Oversized spindown life counter
• 1 storage box

Pizza Bundle

Here’s a unique concept for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles collaboration, mostly in that it is packaged in a box resembling a pizza delivery box. Every Pizza Bundle is priced at $99.99 and includes the items below:

• 9 Play Boosters
• 1 Premium Booster
• 25 Non-foil pizza lands
• Five Foil pizza basic lands
• 2 Foil Pizza Bundle promotional cards
• Two Reference cards
• 1 Oversized life tracker
• One Card-storage box

If you’re wondering what a “Pizza Bundle promo card” means, it’s basically a reprint of an older card featuring brand-new Turtle-themed art. The team revealed one for the well-known Magic card Dark Ritual depicting master Splinter sprinkling toppings on a pizza. There are six distinct pizza promos in total.

The Pizza Bundle launches a couple of weeks later than the core set on March 27, 2026.

Draft Bundle

This special bundle is made for a four-player draft and costs $119.99. That will get you:

• Twelve Play Boosters (ideal for four people to play draft)
• 1 Premium Booster (also known as, the reward for coming in first)
• 90 Regular basic lands (to build your deck)
• Ten Non-foil double-sided tokens
• 1 Draft insert (a single-page instruction sheet to drafting the set)

Turtle Team-Up

Lastly, the developers are introducing a new concept with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as part of its ongoing effort to develop Magic products specifically for new players. Here, the cooperative set is a special set of prebuilt decks that let you and a friend team up against a “Boss” enemy deck that pilots itself.

The general idea here that every Boss card grants special abilities to the creature cards included in the Boss deck. Each Boss automatically plays an additional card per turn, and you’ll start off fighting {one Boss|
