Perkins was talking about the 9 Hells...
I don't think he said no to Planescape, just Spelljammer. I guess we find out tomorrow.
Here's something interesting: there's a placeholder up on Amazon advertising tomorrow's stream.

Maybe a PDF, but not a physical book. Personally I think it won't happen till we get another Psion update from UA.
They might count the miscellany set as one of the four products: it might even be the mentioned box set.
So, guys, today's Dragon Talk had a Lore You Should Know talks about the Blood War, and it was very interesting.
Perkins goes into how the Devils need to collect souls to fight the Blood War, and nonchalantly drops the example of how on Avernus an entire city might be sucked in from the material plane for troops.
He then later mentioned how they at one point planned a counter-balance to Out of the Abyss where Asmodeus offered deals to surface cities to protect them from the demons in the Underdark.
I predict that the AP will involve a Diabolical plot to suck Baldur's Gate straight into Hell... descending into Zariel's realm, as it were.
I disagree on that. WotC has put out several D&D-related board-game based on their APs, but those have never been counted as part of the releases for D&D or taken up a slot in the D&D production schedule. Whatever the boxed set is, if it's being counted as one of the slots in the D&D production queue, then it's an actual D&D product.I think the box set will be a board game version of the main "Decent" AP.

If it actually is, as in you start the adventure at level 12 (?) or whatever, I'll happily eat your hat.The big adventure being announced will be focused on the Bloodwar and will have a heavy focus on Zariel and her fall. This is also likely the followup to Out of the Abyss that Perkins mentioned in an interview last year.
