There's another absolute banger of a set on the way: Delta Reign has officially been announced, and we can't wait. In this blog we'll walk you through everything you need to know: when the set releases, which products you can expect, why this set is such a big deal, and how to make sure you never miss the moment our pre-order goes live.
When does Delta Reign release?
Delta Reign launches internationally on 6 November 2026. As soon as the pre-order goes live at RareCards, we'll let you know right away — and the best way to hear it first is a bit further down in this blog.
Which products can you expect?
At launch, you can count on the following Delta Reign products:
- Booster Box
- Elite Trainer Box
- Booster Bundle
- 3-Pack Blisters
- Single Booster Packs
Plenty of choice, whether you want to grab a few loose packs or crack open a full box in one go.
Why is Delta Reign such a big deal?
This set is all about the return of Mega Rayquaza ex, and that alone is reason enough for the hype. Rayquaza hasn't had a headline role in the Pokémon TCG for a while, so for a lot of collectors this is a long-awaited comeback.
On top of that, Delta Reign introduces a brand-new mechanic: a Stadium card split into two halves that you need to play together to trigger its effect. This kind of “two-part” card design echoes some iconic sets from the past, and it always adds an extra layer of excitement when you're opening packs.
In short: a strong headline card, a unique new mechanic, and the return of a true fan favourite. For collectors, players and investors alike, this is a set to keep a close eye on.
Please note: card values can go up as well as down. There is no guarantee of price appreciation.
