(The first book of the saga "Song of Ice & Fire", Game of Thrones was published in 1996). My own feeling about the demiplane of the dread is the dark powers aren't invincible, only we will need more time, maybe generations or centuries. The Spanish History tells how we were recovering our land for the Reconquest against the Muslims invaders. I have seen something things in the wikipedia, mistpedia, and I suspect the land of the mists is a time loop as the movies groundhog day or happy death day, because some characters could be time-travelers. (this is only a theory). Ravenloft will come back because WotC knows it's very popular among many players. The question is about how to add new ideas, or some possible spin-off. My suggestion is dark powers could try taint some regions, or at least a little zone, in the material plane. Even they could cause a "zombie-apocalypse". Let's imagine the PCs get out the demiplane but they go to Vladantilan, formerly ruled by vampyres, and now suffering a "mist-storm apocalypse" like "Fortnite: save the world". If WotC allows stories about dark powers infecting or cursing some crystal sphere, you can bet DM Guild will offer Ravenloft spin-off created by the own fans, some times using different sources of inspiration. WotC has to open some doors because it has got a rival, Pathfinder, and 3rd Party publishers creating their own worlds. What new ideas would you allow in the revival, or changes in the metaplot? For example a dark lord is save/forgiven/healed, or a island of terror is destroyed because the dark lord was defeated. WotC can recycle firearms from d20 Modern and d20 Past, but the question is if they are playtesting a videogame with d20 system and different playable factions, the balance of power is broken if gunpowder is cheaper than magic. Or a steam ship could be used to run over a sea monster willfully (This happened in a famous Lovecraft's tale).
