Everyone's beloved pizza-eating superheroes are arriving to the popular trading card game. The well-known trading card game's publisher, Wizards of the Coast, announced a highly anticipated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles collaboration during a exclusive event hosted at New York Comic Con. Is this a exciting new set or yet another crossover cash grab? We'll let you decide.

Check out here at all the details announced from the Magic x Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles collaboration, including some useful context. Everything mentioned below releases on March 6, 2026, with one exception — a special Pizza Bundle arrives a few weeks later on March 27.

Magic x TMNT: Main Set Cards

Before diving into the many unique products and collections on offer, we’ll examine at the full lineup from the core Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles expansion unveiled by the developers. Standard booster packs for the expansion are priced at $6.99 per pack, while Collector Boosters should run $37.99 per pack.

Let’s explore a couple of shell-shocking details. To begin, there's a new mechanic called Sneak Attack, inspired by the already established Ninjutsu, in which players can cheat powerful creatures onto the battlefield when an attacker goes unblocked. The big difference here is that this new ability can apply to non-creature spells as well. The designers also used this chance to refine the mechanic a bit (Sneak is treated as playing a spell, as opposed to Ninjutsu). Ninjutsu is staying, but chances are we'll see Sneak in future sets moving forward.

“If we ever go back to the Kamigawa plane, it’s possible we’d use Ninjutsu since that plane is it originated and it is iconic to that,” a senior designer stated. “But in other settings, because the rules are cleaner and the new ability is what's going to be Standard-legal, it’s probable we’ll use the updated version.”

That second variant of Leonardo, Sewer Samurai card, is one of four cards with unique artwork designed exclusively for the set by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles original artist the co-creator.

Oh, and, if you're shocked by the card text on Turtles Forever, which allows playing game cards outside of your main deck, so was I. Yet according to the developers, it’s now a official card in all formats of Magic.

Anyway, below are the highly unusual land cards with full art from the TMNT set:

As per the company’s existing guidelines, these cards are all legal in Magic’s Standard format. Developers state they took care to make sure the new cards and mechanics worked smoothly with current Standard expansions like Edge of Eternities.

“I headed the design for over a year and we were aware it was going to be in standard and which sets would be alongside it in Standard,” the designer commented. “We designed to make sure that there's synergy with some of those sets including Edge of Eternities.”

For example, both TMNT and Edge of Eternities include a Izzet 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 design any Commander precons for Spider-Man and the upcoming Avatar: The Last Airbender collaborations, Wizards is reversing course with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. This time it’s just one precon, but it does come with six distinct legendary cards that can serve as your commander depending on how you combine them (five cards include a unique partner ability called “Character Select” that allows starting with two commanders in the command zone instead of only one). Check them out below:

This Commander deck is priced at $69.99, though that could easily go up due to popularity. Sources told that it contains 43 new cards in total, which translates to an additional 37 TMNT-themed game cards in addition to the six legendary creatures pictured above. (Calculating roughly, this suggests approximately 20 reprints if we assume the deck comes with 37 lands.)

How will the Turtles version of Sol Ring appear? We’ll just have to wait and see.

TMNT Bundle (Regular)

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

• 9 Standard Boosters
• 15 Foil basic lands
• 15 Regular basic lands
• Two helper cards
• One Foil promo card
• One Large life tracker
• One storage box

Pizza Bundle

This is a unique concept for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles set, mostly in that it comes in what looks like a pizza box. Every Pizza Bundle costs $99.99 and comes with the items below:

• Nine Play Boosters
• One Collector Booster
• 25 Non-foil pizza lands
• 5 Traditional foil pizza-themed lands
• 2 Traditional foil pizza bundle promotional cards
• 2 Reference cards
• One Oversized life tracker
• 1 Card-storage box

For those curious what a “pizza bundle promo” means, it’s essentially a reprint of an older card with brand-new Turtle-themed art. Wizards revealed one for the well-known Magic card Dark Ritual featuring art of master Splinter sprinkling toppings on a pizza. There are six distinct pizza promos in total.

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

Draft Night

This special bundle is made for a four-player draft and is priced at $119.99. It includes:

• 12 Play Boosters (ideal for a group of four to draft)
• 1 Premium Booster (aka, the reward for coming in first)
• Ninety Regular basic lands (to build your deck)
• 10 Regular token cards
• 1 drafting guide (a single-page instruction sheet to drafting this expansion)

Cooperative Play Set

Lastly, the developers are doing something new with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as in line with its continued initiative to develop Magic game products specifically for new players. Here, the cooperative set is a special set of decks that let you and a friend join forces against a “Boss” enemy deck that pilots itself.

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