WotC D&D Direct--Learn About Upcoming D&D On April 21st!

D&D Direct is a 30-minute video which WotC will be releasing on April 21st at 9am Pacific Time (5pm BST, if I have my time zones correct). They'll be using it to reveal stuff about upcoming D&D projects (including video games and entertainment). The video will be presented by Anna Prosser and B. Dave Walters.

This is being billed in an emailed announcement entitled "Learn Everything That’s Happening This Year for Dungeons & Dragons" as the "first ever D&D Direct", so presumably there are more planned.

​

The D&D Team at Wizards of the Coast is excited to debut D&D Direct, a jam-packed thirty-minute video presentation on April 21 at 9:00 AM Pacific Time.

Tune in to see exclusive reveals from the world's greatest roleplaying game, including video games, entertainment, and more, guided by hosts Anna Prosser and B. Dave Walters.

D&D Direct will be broadcast on the D&D YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/DNDWizards) and Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/dnd) channels.

To find out more on D&D Direct go to dnd.wizards.com and follow the official D&D social media accounts for more updates.

See you on April 21 at 9:00 AM PT for the first-ever D&D Direct!

Yes but Strixhaven IS considered a new setting and an adventure. It is a "new format" to present a setting.

WotC marketing describes is as a setting, not a "setting and an adventure". Nor have they ever described it as a "new format". The "new format" settings are coming later this year, by deduction Spelljammer and Dragonlance.

...now of course, were it to be an adventure that began in the city of Baldur's Gate and then went off into Wildspace...

Just a typical Tuesday for Minsc and Boo.

A Spelljammer book should be about adventuring in SPACE!, not a big list of normal places you you can visit by traveling through space.

I wonder how accurate those dimensions are, because that is about twice as thick as usual. Could it be evidence for my two books in a slip case hypothesis?

The last pre-announcement dimensions were 6x9.

Spelljammer boxed set confirmed!

The weight seems way off though

Yeah, the weight seems too low for anything much, although the dimensions are not inconsistent with a boxed set. Maybe Amazon have an empty box to weigh?

These always get updated after the fact. Check my posting of the Japan listing in the other thread. No weight but consistent dimensions (though I was confused for second)
