D&D General More details on what to expect from the Player's Guide to the Forgotten Realms from Polygon, Massive Amount of Spells & Feats

I definitely think Calimshan pulls double duty, it's a "token noneuropean setting" but if it ends up being popular that probably lets them know they can greenlight a revised Al-Qadim setting or something else like Maztica or Kara Tur

One good thing about this is that Calimshan is getting a deep-dive, so they aren't shying away from potentially controversial areas. That makes a potential update to Kara-Tur a but more likely. But in these books, I would guess a quick, very general overview (like in the 3e FRCS) would likely be the most we'll see.
Calimshan never had quite as much baggage as Kara-Tur or Al-Quadim. But, yes, it is an interesting exercise in brining in some less Western Europe-y settings.
