New Dungeons & Dragons Dungeon Master's Guide Art and Details Revealed

Check out new images from the 2024 Dungeon Master's Guide.

The marketing cycle for the 2024 Dungeon Master's Guide is underway. Wizards of the Coast has released the first video and accompanying article previewing the 2024 Dungeon Master's Guide. Wizards has already told fans what's actually in the new 2024 Dungeon Master's Guide, so there's not much in terms of actual new details. The video/article revealed that the Bastion system got another look from designers after its initial Unearthed Arcana playtest, that there will be a DM's Toolkit for everything from "alignment to traps," now arranged in alphabetical order, and that there will be 400 "new and improved" magic items.

The 2024 Dungeon Master's Guide will also be the home of rules for crafting magic items and a new Greyhawk campaign setting guide, with a focus on showcasing how Greyhawk can be customized or be used as a model for homemade campaign settings. Finally, the Dungeon Master's Guide will contain a lore glossary and a full chapter about D&D cosmology, the latter of which helps to drive home the idea of the D&D multiverse.


While much of this information was already known, the video and article did show off a LOT of new art, some of which can be found below:

You have the halfling pointing with her wrist. You're ignoring the fact that if you zoom in the eyes are clearly pointing as far to her left as they can go towards the dragonborn.
yes, I said it was for emphasis, it goes past the dragonborn and more to where the human is looking.

Her eyes are not as far left as can be, they are basically straight ahead, you can see the white on the far side after all

Anyway, this is one of the sillier arguments I've seen and it doesn't really matter.
this I agree with

art is content. it helps sets tone and expectation for a game.

the full image of the art that people are arguing about here shows a very dangerous situation where a party is squabbling so much they're about to get Beholder-ed.
D&D is dangerous, and the modern art makes that quite clear.
Except this is D&D 5.5, so what's really going is the argument between PCs was the entire point of this session (and everyone leveled because of it!) and the Beholder was just really interested in what they had to say. Next session he even joins the party.:D

There's a bit of light reflection at the bottom of her eye, that's all. If she was looking any further to her left she'd need a periscope to see out of her nostril! ;)

Here’s another action piece from the same artist, with approximate line of sight analysis. I love how she’s still holding her beer!
