Dungeons & Dragons Pinball Machine Announced

Stern Pinball has announced a new Dungeons & Dragons-themed pinball machine. The famed pinball company has announced plans to release Dungeons & Dragons: The Tyrant's Eye, a new $6,999 pinball machine. Details about the new machine are scarce, although a teaser for the game shows off what appears to be a mechanical red dragon. No release date has been announced for the pinball machine but more details will likely be announced next week at CES, an annual consumer electronics show held in Las Vegas. A teaser trailer for Dungeons & Dragons: The Tyrant's Eye can be seen below:


As D&D develops into more and more of a modern-day brand, it has crossed over into various kinds of media with varying degrees of success. A D&D LEGO set was well-received in 2024, which was followed by additional LEGO minifigures of characters like the Lady of Pain and Strahd. D&D will also appear at a new Universal Fan Fest Nights event this spring, with what appears to be a kind of haunted house/adventure room experience. A new "immersive experience" is also running in Canada this winter, featuring a truncated hour-long adventure in Waterdeep.

I love pinball… Don't love it $6999, but love it. If I have time at a place with machines, and they look interesting, I'll give it a spin. Sadly the most recent experience I had was just virtual (Zen Studios Pinball FX3). Fun, but not as cool as real pinball.

The D&D machine looks pretty cool. If I ever see it, I will try it.

Does anyone still play pinball? As far as I remember, they started to disappear in the second half of the 90s, when internet cafes and video game consoles arrived and the arcades disappeared.

I am not against the merchandising of D&D but where I live the pinballs are only a memory from a previous decade.

I feel like most people with access still play, they're not easy to find but anyone with a quarter and a few minutes will enjoy hitting a ball and some flashing lights

I'm surprised that there wasn't already DnD pinball

I'm someone who was always into pinball and love it very much today. There was a lull and the thought that it might be going out, but things never stopped. I am fortunate to live in an area where it never really went away, and some folks doing maintenance for the machines live. It is a big issue to do maintenance for pinball machines, especially the new ones.

I am genuinely excited about the new machine, as this is something that's actually targeted at me as a customer. If one of these machines shows up near me, I will definitely be playing the heck out of it.
