The set schedule is the backbone of the game's live cycle. Every set brings new God Rares, a new campaign, and a new dominant strategy, roughly every two months.

Three patterns are visible and worth naming. First, the cadence is stable at roughly two months — a schedule that has held since launch and gives players a reliable rhythm for budgeting. Second, the named set themes start at the seventh set, which reads as the point where the game had enough sets in the wild for a naming convention to be useful for referring to card pools. Third, the Ultimate Bout series in the 12th set retroactively spans five sets, which effectively merges sets seven through eleven into a single meta tier.
Related but separate from the numbered sets are the campaigns, which run alongside each release and reward in-game participation rather than purchase. The 12th set's Movie Poster Cards campaign and the Gohan: Youth giveaway are examples, and the anniversary God Rare campaign featuring Frieza is the clearest demonstration of the format.
Alongside the numbered sets, Bandai and Premium Bandai run several parallel lines. Advance packs have included the Battle of Saiyans (August 1, 2026) and a 40th Anniversary Edition (February 21, 2026). A separate Story Booster 01 covering the Fusion World was released on August 8, 2026 as its own product. And the 2nd Anniversary Set — the premium physical product — had its second order window running November 6–24, 2026 for June 2027 shipping, after the first order window closed earlier.
