Ravenloft: The Horrors Within Announced, Release Date Scheduled for June 2026

I don’t see why they would need to have to have any UA stuff for Dragonlance - DL1 launched under core rules (aside from kender).

depends on what they release for it, an adventure, no UA. A setting book with a bunch of subclasses would have an UA however

Looking at what they have and haven’t released prior, and the absence of a UA, it pretty much has to be an adventure (even if it’s not DL).

If they did Dragonlance, in my mind the most natural fit would be doing a Quests for the Infinite Staircase style rewrite a thology for the DL modules. Which would provide a good counterpoint to the typ s of products released into he other Quarters, and classic standard Fantasy material as opposed to Gothic Dark Fantasy and high octane magic we see in the other Seasons.

Infinite Staircase has shown that the current staff can do really good updates to old adventures.

I think the older staff could, but had a hard time bringing themselves to because of their childhood attachment.

Dragonlance doesn't need special rules and WotC would rather player-options sourcebooks to be as generic as possible. And they know if players want only lore/fluff/background then they can buy the older titles in DMGuild.

* We have got the option of the retelling o the original Dragonlance modules, something like Curse of Strahd. If there is a cinematographic production then this will be a new continuity with possible changes, for example goliaths as a specie from Taladas, and ursines(bearfolk) could be more common.

* I have got a new speculation. There is a new event "Reality Fracture" for Magic: the Gathering. I searched some spoiler about the future plot but this is not necessary to be told here. But I can and I dare to say my own theory is this could cause uchronies or alternate timelines in the D&D Multiverse. That could be the reason because they want to say nothing about the last season of this year.

If Valgavoth the terror-eater(Duskmourn) was involved into the event of "Reality Fracture" then not only Innistrad but potentially Ravenloft could be affected. I would like to imagine Duskmourn would become like a planar liminar space, dangerous but you can use to travel between planes, or to raid some dungeon. (Valgavoth creates threasures like baits, and some times it allows dungeon-crawlers to survive and return to their homes to tell their adventures and this will attrack new victims).

The event also could reboot some M:tG planes to become more playable for D&D.

If there is a new D&D sourcebook about Stryxhaven I suspect this wouldn't be an update or sequel but more like an independient spin-off, some thing like "the same doll but wearing a different urban-tribe style".

I think the case for Dark Sun is stronger on the UA front, but putting Lord Soth there shoots the odds for Dragonlance far above 1% in my book, along with the fact that WotC is pushing Dragonlance hard in Idle Champions this year.

Lord Soth shoots the odds TO 1%, considering it's a picture of him from his Ravenloft era, I'd put higher odds he's in the Darklords section alongside Chthulu rather than we get a Dragonlance release with no PC options.

And I think the Idle Champions is a coincidence. Last Year, the Neverwinter MMO did it's second Ravenloft expansion and we're getting the Ravenloft book a year later.

WotC might be aiming for greater synergy, but I wouldn't point to a mobile game update as any precognition. In fact, I would say if Neverwinter is any indication, Dragonlance next year looks more likely!

for DL definitely, for Dark Sun not so much. Not sure how many martial UAs there were, are there enough for the martial equivalent to the 3q caster book?

Legit question: considering the last Dragonlance release was an adventure with a handful of PC options, do people really think they would do that again? Another series of adventures with minimal or no PC options? I just don't see them at least updating lunar sorcerer...

Yes, I would expect the DL modules revised for the current rules and edited in general, similar to Infinite Staircase.
