Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Card Deck Arrives November 2026

Screen Rant reports that Bandai Namco has announced a new Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War project tied to the Union Arena trading card game. The product is an Advanced Deck, set to launch on November 6, 2026. That date falls just 11 days after the revised release of the anime's final episode, which was recently delayed.

The Advanced Deck is a premium product, Screen Rant says, made entirely of foiled cards. It contains 50 cards and costs $24.99. That is a notable jump from the $11.99 price of the original Bleach Union Arena starter deck released in 2024. The product's official store page describes it as designed for "players who missed Vol.1 or Vol.2 or are just getting started."

Union Arena is a crossover TCG that includes characters from My Hero Academia, Hunter x Hunter, and Bleach. Screen Rant notes the game has become popular enough to rival the UniVersus TCG. Several Bleach sets have already been released in the West, including for Thousand-Year Blood War.

The timing means fans will have less than two weeks between the final episode of the anime and the launch of the new deck, giving them a way to engage with the series as it concludes.
