Naruto Card Game: What We Know So Far
The confirmed June 2027 launch, first products, gameplay basics, and the important details Bandai has not announced yet.
The confirmed launch window
The NARUTO CARD GAME is officially scheduled for a global release in June 2027. The first announcement in June 2026 used a broader 2027 window; the official October 2026 product update narrowed that to June.
This is a global product announcement, but availability can still vary by region and retailer. Bandai has not published one exact worldwide street date in the sources reviewed for this article.
The first confirmed products
The official October announcement names four launch products:
- A starter deck centered on Naruto Uzumaki
- A starter deck centered on Sasuke Uchiha
- A starter deck centered on Gaara
- The first booster set, Here Comes Naruto Uzumaki!
The announcement describes distinct play styles for the three starter decks, but it does not provide complete deck lists, product codes, pack configurations, MSRP, or retailer allocations.
Gameplay basics already revealed
An official July 2026 gameplay overview says a deck setup includes one Leader Card, a 50-card deck, five Chakra Cards, and one Summon Card. Leader color shapes which cards can be used and the strategy a deck can pursue.
The stated goal is to reduce the opposing Leader Card's life to zero. Revealed card categories include Leader, Character, EX Character, Chakra, and Summon cards.

The October announcement also says an Official Playmat -Naruto vs. Sasuke- and Premium Card Collection vol.00 -Chakra Set- are planned for advance trial events and select Bandai Card Games Fest venues. Further participation and distribution details are still pending.
