The One Piece Card Game and Nike collaboration is moving from sneakers to the tournament table. Bandai's official English account for the card game announced yesterday at 7 AM ET / 4 AM PT that a NIKE × OPCG Collaboration Tournament is on the way, inviting players to "lace up your Nikes" and bring their favorite deck. Check out the official post down below:
Tournament Dates And Registration
According to the official event page, the One Piece Card Game NIKE Collaboration Tournament runs from February 1 to April 30, 2027, with a separate tournament in each of those 3 months. Bandai's post asks players to bring their favorite deck and "hit the battlefield in style." Registration is first-come, first-served, and it opens on these dates:
- February Tournament: registration opens January 18 at 2 PM EST / 11 AM PST / 7 PM GMT
- March Tournament: registration opens February 18 at 2 PM EST / 11 AM PST / 7 PM GMT
- April Tournament: registration opens March 18 at 2 PM EST / 11 AM PST / 7 PM GMT
The tournaments take place at local game stores, which players can find through the BANDAI TCG+ app. Bandai encourages players to apply through BANDAI TCG+, but because stores handle registration in different ways, the event page asks players to contact their local store directly to confirm their spot.
The Prizes
Every participant receives 2 prizes: the P-099 Monkey.D.Luffy promo card and One Piece Card Game NIKE DON!! cards. The event page encourages players to bring their Nike sneakers to show off their style, but it also states that Nike footwear is not required to take part.
Matches follow the card game's Official Rules Manual and the Tournament Rules Manual dated January 16, 2026, and the event page notes that photocopied or otherwise illegitimate cards cannot be used.
The Nike And One Piece Collection
The tournament builds on the Nike x One Piece collaboration that Nike announced in August. The collection is built around 3 versions of the Nike Air Max Plus, themed after the Gomu Gomu, Ope Ope and Mera Mera Devil Fruits used by Luffy, Trafalgar Law and Ace. In Japan, each pair is priced at ¥27,500. The sneakers are covered in The Nike x One Piece Collab Drops Three New Pairs Of Sneakers This Month.
The apparel side of the line includes jerseys, T-shirts, caps and a vest, as covered in The Nike x One Piece Collab Capsule Arrives This Month And Has Jerseys, A $300 Vest, And More. The collection opened with a pop-up in Tokyo from September 4 to 6 before launching globally on Nike's SNKRS app on September 25.
Nike's DON!! cards were already part of the collaboration before the tournament was announced. Customers who bought the collaboration footwear in person at participating stores received DON!! cards with their purchase, and the tournament now gives players another way to get Nike DON!! cards.
About The One Piece Card Game
The One Piece Card Game is a trading card game from Bandai based on Eiichiro Oda's manga. Players build a deck around a Leader card and use DON!! cards as the resource that powers their characters, events and attacks.
The card game is not the only place One Piece has turned up in games this season. Fortnite's Treasure Hunters mini-season added One Piece powers to its island and outfits for Luffy, Zoro, Nami and other members of the Straw Hat crew.
Will you be signing up for one of the One Piece Card Game x Nike tournaments to get the P-099 Monkey.D.Luffy card and the Nike DON!! cards?
