The heroes in a half shell are the latest to join the world of Universes Beyond, in a new set due out March 2026.
A few weeks ago, Wizards of the Coast unveiled its grand plans for Magic: The Gathering‘s next year, and they were certainly grand. With seven sets due out in 2026, there’s going to be more Magic than ever before, including four new crossover sets as part of “Universes Beyond.” Except one of those sets was being kept secret for a few more weeks… and it turns out it was because Wizards was waiting for a suitable place to announce some local boys.
Today at New York Comic Con, Wizards confirmed that the final addition to Magic‘s 2026 lineup is none other than the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Raph, Leo, Donnie, Mikey, and friends will be the second major collaboration between Wizards of the Coast and Nickelodeon, in the wake of next month’s Avatar: The Last Airbender set.
TMNT will now be the fourth Universes Beyond set releasing in 2026 alongside Marvel Super Heroes, The Hobbit, and Star Trek—and marks the tipping point that will see the first year that Wizards releases more product dedicated to other universes than Magic‘s own original multiverse.
Here are some sneaks shared on Wizards of the Coast’s social media:
