The facts at a glance

Japanese release date: 31 October 2026 (several Japanese and trade sources agree; we have not yet seen the official product page)

The Sun God theme

Konami previewed the first Sun God cards ahead of release, including The Sun God's Poet - Helpoemer, The Sun God's Destructor - Makyura and a Fusion version of the Ra monster. For collectors, a new theme gives a clear reason to pick up the set as a whole rather than a single card.

OCG or TCG: which one is this?

The OCG is the Japanese edition of the game and the TCG is the English-language edition. Card pools, rarities and release dates can differ between them. This booster is the OCG release; we have not confirmed an English-language release, so check the publisher's announcements if you are weighing the two.

Why buy the Japanese edition?

Collectors who want a set as first released, with Japanese card text and packaging, source from Japan directly. Sealed boxes and packs from a seller who ships internationally are the usual route.

Release date and contents: confirm on the official Konami product page.
Language: make sure the listing says Japanese edition (OCG).
Condition and packaging: sealed product is the standard for a new release.
