An anthology of 13 heist-themed adventures for the world’s greatest roleplaying game.

Some jobs require more than simply wielding a sword or slinging a spell. Whether it’s procuring a well-guarded item or obtaining crucial information from an imprisoned contact, these tasks require careful planning and flawless execution. The secretive organization called the Golden Vault specializes in hiring crews for such jobs, and for the most daunting assignments—pursuing fabulous treasures and stopping dire threats—that crew is your characters.
Keys from the Golden Vault™ is a collection of 13 short, standalone Dungeons & Dragons adventures designed for characters levels 1–11. These adventures can be placed in any setting and you can run them as one-shot games or link them together into a campaign. This book also includes in-world maps to help players plan their heists, plus advice for running nontraditional games with high risks and huge rewards.

Contents:
  • Book of 13 stand-alone adventures spanning levels 1–11, each focused on a single heist
  • Adventures can be set in any D&D or homebrew world and can be played individually or as part of a full campaign
  • Introduces the Golden Vault—a mysterious organization for which the player characters can work as heist operatives
  • Each adventure includes a map to guide Dungeon Masters and a map to help players plan their heists
  • Adventures emphasize player choice with each heist having multiple paths toward success
  • Includes advice and detailed information for Dungeon Masters running nontraditional adventures with high risks and huge rewards


There's also an alternate cover.

I like the alt cover and bet it will look great IRL.

But apparently this isn't a movie tie-in book after all, at least not directly. That surprises me.
It truly is amazing there is no movie tie in product, as far as we know.

What a wasted opportunity to bring new people into the hobby. There should 100% be a boxed set with maps and minis from the movie. Like, 100%.

I do wonder what the contract looks like between Paramount and Hasbro. And all of the other folks with contracts.

It's possible Paramount and others get a cut of the movie tie in merch and Hasbro doesn't want to share, thinking that the movie promoting the brand itself would be good enough for their sales. I'd be surprised if Chris Pine and the others don't get a cut of anything that has their likeness on it, for example.

Certainly possible.....but giving up a percent of profit is better than having no profit. Like, I'd rather make so much money I have to pay a higher amount of taxes, than not make any money and have a low tax bill.....

If I were WotC, I'd have a D&D commercial right before the movie. I hate commercials, but they're there in most theaters these days.
