One Piece TCG OP-17 Prerelease Has Started: Wide Release Hits August 28
Bandai's 4th Anniversary booster set, built around the Elbaf arc and the Four Emperors, is now in prerelease across the US ahead of a full launch next week.
Prerelease weekend is the first real look at pull rates and card quality in hand, and the Elbaf arc has been one of the most anticipated storyline focuses in the One Piece TCG since the game launched. Four Emperors coverage in a 4th Anniversary set signals Bandai is leaning into marquee characters, which historically drives early secondary market activity before wide release supply catches up. If you are chasing key pulls from this set, the next seven days are when the market sets its floor.
