D&D 5E $165 Priced Hardcover D&D 2022 Book(s?) Leaked on Amazon

[Weiley31]

It would be quite funny if Amazon goofed up on putting the page up and put up something massive like that instead of a $145 page hardcover.

If you go to the UK version of the page it's a little different. Same ISBN, no price, and it's a 145 page hardcover.

Ah, definitely some placeholder info then, either UK Amazon, or US Amazon, or both. Perhaps even purposely done to not let us guess exactly what's coming!

It could actually be pretty neat to get a Campaign Setting, Adventure, and Player Options for a given world as a boxed set. What world would warrant that, given that we already have a laundry list of Forgotten Realms adventures? Dark Sun? Planescape?

I would actually love to see something like that. I was just saying to my buddy last week that I think it’s a major missed opportunity that the new campaign setting books haven’t been followed with a big adventure book for that setting.
But while I might be willing to pay for something like that (depending on the setting), I’m not sure the average person would. My money is on a revised core set—though I really figured that would line up to an anniversary. I suppose we will find out soon enough.

Only 145 pages. It must be another DMs screen. At least a deluxe version hopefully.

PLEASE GIVE ME SPELLJAMMER IN 5E!

I know it won’t happen… but I’ll settle for Dark Sun or Greyhawk.

I‘m a glutton for punishment..

Well, a 145 page product costing for $165 is REALLY unlikely. So either the page is a placeholder, the price is a placeholder, or BOTH are a placeholder.

Agreed on both counts. It's probably a new core set, but it's straight up wild to me that we've had an Eberron setting book as long as we've had with no accompanying adventure.

My guess is an updated Core 3 set.

But my D&Dystopian thought for the day is...

A fancy boxed gift-card for a one-year subscription to the new-and-improved, completely cloud-based, online-only D&D Xtra™ (backed by DragonDRM Tech™, with blockchain!), to support the company's migration to a fully subscription model.

That much for a 1-year sub, as a promotion, would indeed be dystopian!

 

[Sacrosanct]

It's a book that includes the warlord class, so when it doesn't sell due to the price, they can say no one was interested.

what, you said wild speculation

Maybe it's literally made of money?
