Wizards of the Coast has announced a new digital only Dungeons & Dragons supplement based on the Magic: The Gathering plane of Lorwyn-Shadowmoor. Wizards officially announced Lorwyn: First Light, which will include a bestiary of monsters found in Lorwyn along with rules for the new Rimekin player species. This will be the third digital expansion released as part of the Forgotten Realms book and will include two backgrounds, two feats, two magic items, eight monsters, and two new species. This will be released in November, although no individual price has been announced for the book.

Interestingly, Lorwyn is being turned into a Domain of Delight in the Feywild and is accessible with the Moonshae Isles, which is how this ties into the Forgotten Realms.

A couple of points of interest about this new D&D supplement. The first is that it continues a trend of releasing player species content behind digital only releases. The dhampir species will be released through a "digital expansion" of the upcoming Forgotten Realms books. Additionally, it appears that while Magic/D&D crossovers are back on the table, they appear to be limited to more modest releases rather than a full physical rulebook. Of course, this also means that the Magic crossover won't be one of the physical D&D products released in 2026.

Lorwyn seems to be an official product rather than the evening activities of a passionate designer.
Yes, but the only reason that is the case is because said passionate designer, who used to be in the MtG team, is now one of the senior designers on the D&D team.

The only thing separating the “official” designations of the Planeshift products vs this one is where the designers desk is located in the building.
