Early this morning, Wizards of the Coast held a D&D Direct, covering many new announcements around the tabletop game and spin-off material.
Here’s everything WoC revealed during the direct. We’ll be updating later with links and videos as they become available.
The official title for the big screen D&D movie is ‘Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, and the official release date is March 3rd, 2023.
The Dragonlance campaign setting is returning later this year with the release of an adventure book titled Shadow of the Dragon Queen and a battle game titled Warriors of Krynn.
An animated teaser was released alongside the announcement, but that’s all we have for now.
This book features many portals and locations that can be played as one-off adventures or as a big campaign adventure. The adventures cover levels 1-14, but how you play it’s all up to you, with plenty of room for your typical D&D variety.
In the video discussing Journeys Through The Radiant Citadel, we look at the vibrant and fantastic art that doesn’t look like your typical D&D adventure, thanks to 16 exciting new locations and at least one new monster. Each of the stories was written by sixteen black and brown writers based on their lives, backgrounds, cultures and myths, bringing new and exciting ideas and building out the D&D world.
It’s the new Dungeons & Dragons Starter Set!Dragons of Stormwreck Isle.
Take a deep trek into space with the latest in this Dungeons & Dragons spin-off, which introduces six new playable races, including the Astral Elves, Auto-Nobes, flying monkey creatures, and a group of hippos who are called Gifs. However, you choose to pronounce it.
Three books are launching with this game: a player’s handbook for DM’s and players, a creature book, and the adventure book titled Light of Xaryxis.
Spelljammer: Adventures in Space is releasing on August 16th, 2022.
Wizkids also announced a bunch of new miniatures alongside the Spelljammer: Adventure in Space reveal.
The team at Larian Studios looked back at the past year of development on Baldur’s Gate 3, which included a corny, yet amusing role-play segment with some of the team.
There is no news here about the game other than promising more content, and the full game is coming in 2023 for those who don’t wish to partake in Early Access.
The hunt begins on June 20th in the latest expansion to Neverwinter. A teaser was released, it contains the Gearbox Software logo in the bottom corner, which is weird, but Cryptic was bought by Gearbox late last year.
Wizkids is releasing a new tactical, skirmish miniatures game in the D&D universe titled Dungeons & Dragons: Onslaught.
These items are now available for pre-order and seem like must-haves for those who often cart a load of D&D gear to their friends’ houses. The terrain box and creatures box both come with re-usable assets, either in the form of creatures or pieces to play on your terrain, and there looks to be a wide variety in what’s included.
The following books will be printed in new languages later this year. Those languages are French, Italian, German and Spanish
Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything – July 12th
Monsters of the Multiverse – September 13th
D&D Start Set – Dragons of Stormwreck Isle – October 4th
Curse of Strahd – October 25th
A brand new D&D Play Series has been revealed:
“The core cast of legends are Sunny (Deborah Ann Woll), Kaiho Karoshi (B. Dave Walters), Bac Si (Gina Darling), Riddle (Meagan Kenreck), and Torven (Todd Kenreck). They will be joined by additional legends each week on their quest for adventure.”
