Darrington Press made several Daggerheart-related announcements to celebrate its 1-year anniversary this week, including a new Age of Umbra miniseries featuring Matthew Mercer as the GM and a new free adventure. Headlining the slate of announcements was confirmation of a new Age of Umbra miniseries titled Sallowlands. This new Actual Play series is set in the Halycon dominion (home of the first Age of Umbra miniseries) and brings back Mercer and Laura Bailey for a 6-part adventure that begins on July 9th. Joining Mercer and Bailey are Jennifer English, Abubakar Salim, Vico Ortiz, and Zachery Renauldo. The new miniseries is billed as a standalone adventure independent of the first Age of Umbra series.
Also announced was a new free Tier 1 adventure titled The Wish Thief that is set (appropriately) during a royal birthday festival. The adventure is available for free on Critical Role’s website. Additionally, more free adventures are planned for 2026 and 2027, with a goal of releasing adventures for all four tiers of play by the end of 2026. Some adventures will be longform adventures like The Wish Thief while others will be short adventures designed to be inserted into any game.
Darrington Press also confirmed that content from the upcoming expansion Daggerheart: Hope & Fear will be added to the Daggerheart SRD. More detail about what content will be added will come closer to the book’s launch.
Finally, a German version of Daggerheart is due for release on July 6th, with Spanish and Hungarian translations in development.
