Bandai details the Premier Demo Events; Japan follows a separate schedule beginning in January.

Premier Demo Events offer a way to experience NARUTO CARD GAME with physical cards before June 2027. The published English and Japanese programmes differ: dates and conditions from one region should not automatically be applied to another.
Two waves in the English programme
Bandai lists February 5–19, 2027 for wave one and February 19–March 5 for wave two. Applications through BANDAI TCG+ are planned for January. Check the app for individual stores and sessions once they become available.
These are store-event campaign windows, not a promise that every shop runs a session on every day. Before travelling, check the selected store, its starting time and your registration confirmation.
Naruto and Sasuke demonstration cards
The official page shows the two leaders used for the demo proposal. These images are marked SAMPLE and represent demonstration material. They do not establish the final contents of the commercial Starter Decks.
Decks used during these sessions cannot be taken home. The worldwide campaign planning to distribute one million demos in spring is a different initiative with its own forthcoming conditions.
The announced early products
The English announcement places Premium Collection vol.00 -CHAKRA set- in both waves at 20 USD MSRP. The Naruto vs. Sasuke playmat is announced for wave one at 40 USD. These are figures in that publication, not confirmed prices for every country.
Official visuals show development samples and retain their markings. Taking part and making a purchase are separate actions. Check store availability and terms instead of assuming registration includes a free product or requires a purchase.
Japan follows its own application windows
Japan’s published schedule runs from January 16 to March 21. Applications for January sessions are listed for December 1–20, 2026. Other months have separate windows; consult the Japanese source for that programme.
Prepare for the session
Select NARUTO CARD GAME in TCG+, check the announcement’s region and save your session confirmation. If interested in merchandise, identify the exact product name before comparing secondary-market listings. A demo introduces the game: it should not be mistaken for a competitive tournament or the general retail launch of the Starter Decks.
