I wonder if there are any clues in this?

I'll just point out that this NOT one of the major 3 releases yet to come.

Yup. It is one of the "few other surprises," or however they phrased it.

I'm thinking of buying it, it's looks like not only would it be good for DING, but solo play, just shuffle the dungeon tiles and play one every time you'd move beyond the current tile.

Im all for new tools, but is this the 10th DM screen theyve put out this edition?

It would be nice if WotC actually shared the piece of art for use to actually see clearly... seems like a group of adventurers confronting a cave of hook horrors, and some sort of dragon in a grove of mushrooms, but it's not totally clear.

Must mean there is a demand for them.

It's the Underdark?

The thing is, the DM screen is one of the best items in d&d for serial re-creation:

• They're easy to manufacture (compared to, say, miniatures)
• They're far more likely to be used by a gaming group than most of the obvious things they could re-create a lot (miniatures, etc)
• The groups that use them mostly do so every game, and in a way that does mean they get physically more wear than most things
• They are easily tailored in art and in their useful content for particular adventure books, which makes them a great tie-in for the modules.

(I haven't personally bought more than the original one and one that was tied in a boxed set I was already getting, but I can definitely see why they sell well.)
