Titles of the Future - The Latest 'Dungeons and Dragons' Releases Revealed
/It may have come as a surprise for some to hear that a new title was being announced, but instead we got two! Sure enough, my ear is low to the ground and when a new D&D release is broadcast, I do what I can to find out more. And now you fine people can hear the news for yourself, that not one, but two book titles from Wizards were announced today. The next published adventure from Dungeons and Dragons will be titled The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, hitting shelves on September 21st. In addition, Fizban's Treasury of Dragons will be released October 19th.
I'm going to cover both in a brief but clear way right here, and both titles have me very excited. For more information, the links to Todd Kenreck's videos will be in down below.
A Carnival of Wonders
Now I personally do not subscribe much to published adventures. I love my world and setting dearly, and like to free form my games as much as possible. This supplement, based on the words of pillar of the community Todd Kenreck, offers stuff for players and DMs alike, as well as what appears to be a delightful, unique story for your players.

In essence, this adventure is set in a carnival in the familiar world of the fey. This part alone excites me immensely. We're bound to get extended rules and explanations on how to run games in this unique part of the D&D universe. The themes of chaos, whimsy, and faerie trickery are all abound in this offer. On top of this, we can expect to see the return of fan favourite characters from the most unlikely places in this adventure. Lead writer Chris Perkins made every effort to bring a true fey adventure real and exciting. Hear Todd’s thoughts on the adventure here and the page on the D&D site here.
Dragon Country
The sentence “a guide just about dragons” has me and my circle of players immensely excited. Fizban's Treasury of Dragons is the dragon sourcebook that all fans of the draconic will crave. We're being treated to a book, that's roughly one third monster blocks, including more breeds of true dragons. Gem dragons, as well as new colours and metals are incoming. On top of this, the new player options features fan favourite subclasses in Monk and Ranger from past Unearthed Arcana.
Even further still! The talk of putting many worlds together is highly sought after, with Elder Dragons and other worlds that predate the prime material all being discussed in this book. Todd has much to say about it on his channel here, and read more information on the D&D site here.
