One Piece Card Game Opens Its Fourth-Anniversary Celebration Around OP-17

Local stores can run Constructed, Sealed or Standard Regulation events from August 21 to September 13, with applications opening through TCG+.

One Piece Card Game fourth anniversary OP-17 local store event dates and formats

One Piece Card Game’s fourth-anniversary celebration is heading to local game stores alongside the launch of OP-17. Bandai has scheduled the event from August 21 through September 13, 2026, with participation managed through individual stores and Bandai TCG+.

Dates and registration

The event begins on OP-17’s official pre-release date and continues for more than three weeks. Bandai says participating stores may choose Constructed, Sealed or Standard Regulation as their tournament format. That flexibility matters: players should verify the format, start time and registration process with their own store rather than treating the global announcement as a single standardized tournament listing.

Player applications are due to open from August 7 through TCG+. Bandai encourages players to apply in the platform, but the official page also notes that stores can manage registration differently. A Bandai Namco ID is required for TCG+, and the publisher specifically advises contacting the local organizer to confirm a place.

An anniversary prize package

Participation comes with a fourth-anniversary prize package. Bandai lists a 75-type Fourth Anniversary Tournament Pack, a P-110 Monkey.D.Luffy promo, a Fourth Anniversary Leader Card and World United DON!! cards. The winner version of P-110 Monkey.D.Luffy is listed with silver foil and a gold stamp. The announcement does not promise that every attendee receives every listed item in unlimited quantities, so local allocation and event-kit availability should be confirmed at the store.

Three ways to play OP-17

The competitive formats give the event two different roles. Constructed and Standard Regulation allow players to bring prepared decks, while Sealed can make the OP-17 release itself part of deck construction. Bandai links separate sealed rules and directs all play back to the official rules and FAQ. Proxies or photocopied cards are not permitted.

The event is also an early public test for OP-17. Players can encounter the set before or around its August 28 general release, but results from a local sealed pool should not be treated as a complete picture of the format. Store choice, attendance and product availability can all shape the experience.

Context

Why it matters

The event combines a new-set launch, three possible tournament structures and a defined application window. Its separate participation and winner treatments also make local allocation worth confirming before attendance.
