The key dates
- 24 July 2026 — Pre-Rift launch events begin in participating stores. First chance to open packs and play with Vendetta cards.
- 31 July 2026 — Full worldwide retail release. Singles start appearing at stores, and the Vendetta set page begins filling with live prices.
Why the countdown matters for buyers
New-set launches follow a predictable price curve: chase cards and format staples spike hardest in the first week while supply is thin, then settle as more product hits shelves. Knowing exactly when release lands lets you plan — grab what you need early if you're playing at launch, or wait out the initial spike if you're only collecting.
Either way, RiftCompare shows the cheapest delivered price across every store the moment cards go live, so you never pay the first (inflated) number you see.
How to be ready in three steps
- Wishlist now. Add the cards you already know you want from the database — you'll be alerted if a price moves.
- Compare sealed early. VEN boxes sell fast at launch; the sealed page ranks them cheapest-first right now.
- Have your deck list ready. Draft it with our Vendetta deckbuilding guide and best Vendetta decks, then price it in one click with the deck pricer on release day.
