The One Piece Card Game has a busy end of the year. Here's the release calendar through December and a ban that's already changing the format.
OP-18: The Dominance of God
- English release: November 20, 2026
- Card types: 127 + 1
- Japanese release: November 21, 2026
OP-18 brings Water Seven and Holy Knights of God themes, and it marks the debut of Saint Gunko and Saint Shamrock.
Two new starter decks on December 18
- ST-37 The Desert Princess and the Pirates (Red/Blue)
- ST-38 Baroque Works (Blue/Black)
Each deck comes with a 51-card deck, 10 DON!! cards, a 3-card bonus pack and a playsheet. Bandai hasn't named the Leaders on the product pages yet.
Dracule Mihawk is banned
As of October 12, 2026, OP14-020 Dracule Mihawk, including its parallel versions, is banned from all decks. Nothing was added to the restricted list.
Bandai's reason: the card became stronger than intended and was hurting the variety of Slash-attribute Leaders. Players will get a replacement promo Leader, P-163 Dracule Mihawk, at future events.
Why it matters
If you were playing Mihawk, that deck isn't legal anymore, so it's time to rebuild. Bans also tend to move prices on the banned card and the cards built around it. For collectors, OP-18 and the two starter decks round out a full holiday release slate.
Also coming October 30: EB-05 Heroines Edition Vol. 2.
