- Megadeth’s self-titled final album arrives January 23, 2026 on Mustaine’s Tradecraft via Frontiers’ BLKIIBLK with producer Chris Rakestraw returning.
- The first announced legs include Latin America in April–May 2026, select European festivals, and a late summer–fall North American run with Iron Maiden including Toronto, Montreal and Los Angeles.
- Mustaine recorded a reworked version of Ride the Lightning as a bonus track and says it is not a cover because he co-wrote the song.
