What is OP-17?
OP-17 is the seventeenth main booster set for the One Piece Card Game, officially titled The World's Strongest Warriors. Bandai has positioned it as the game's 4th anniversary set, and the card list leans into that milestone.
Three themes headline the set on Bandai's official OP-17 page. The Straw Hat crew arrives in Elbaf, the Rocks Pirates era gets its own cards, and the Four Emperors appear as Super Alt-Arts. There's also a Super Leader Alt-Art Monkey D. Luffy for the anniversary.

OP-17 release dates for Australia
There's no separate Australian date. Bandai publishes one English release date covering Oceania alongside North America and Europe, and that date was 28 August 2026. The set is now out.
Japan got the set on 22 August 2026, and stores in the English regions ran pre-release events from 21 August, a week before general release.
Bandai's 4th Anniversary Event runs in stores from 21 August to 13 September 2026, and Australia is in the eligible regions. If you play locally, our Melbourne TCG events guide covers where to find One Piece tournaments.
Now that OP-17 is out, the alert list covers restocks and new One Piece stock instead. If something you want is missing, subscribers hear first.
What's inside The World's Strongest Warriors

The anniversary framing shows in the chase cards. The Elbaf arc brings the Straw Hats in their Elbaf outfits plus Loki. The Rocks Pirates cards cover Rocks D. Xebec's crew, including a young Edward Newgate and Charlotte Linlin. On top of that sit the "Four Emperors, Assemble" Super Alt-Arts: Newgate, Shanks, Kaido and Linlin.
With the set now released, the full English card list and leader lineup are public on Bandai's official pages and the usual community databases.
