D&D 5E (2024) PAX WotC Dungeons and Dragons speculation thread.

[bedir than]

WotC is apparently dropping hidden hints about what they are going to announce.

On social media.

What have any y’all seen?

@LaTia J I do so dealt love this kind of thing.

Nothing hinting at new on Threads (DnDWizards)
Nor on Instagram (DnDWizards)

But my bet is more short softbound player books to boost sales and fill in The missing sub classes for 5.24, the Dark Sun Book, and a generic long form adventures.

Yes to all of that but the softcover player books, which seem unlikely.

So, an Everything book, a pair of Dark Sun books along the lines of the new Forgotten Realms books, a big adventure, the new MTG book they quietly announced in MTG land earlier this year and a surprise product in some other format.

For instance winter fantasy posted this image.

Wark Fun?

Or maybe Winter Fantasy?

I feel like actual links to the social media posts in question would be best so these things can be seen in some sort of context. For instance, that WF image looks like a garden variety generic fantasy logo. Why would anyone think that's associated with WotC?

I'm hoping we see a full MtG book and not the simple, small Lorwyn x Forgotten Realms product

That's the best theory regarding their plans from this thread so far.

Where have they dropped said hints? Links please.

Hard to say without seeing any of the posts.

Have we had soft bound player books at all? It seems odd to guess there will be more.

I don't think we have seen soft bound short player facing books since 3.0

@darjr I haven't found anything about a WotC presentation at PAX Unplugged this weekend, and their social media posts recently seem like innocuous ads for either the FR books or Tasha's Cauldron. Have you heard or seen anything in particular, and what is your take on the WF image? I know that WF 50 is coming up fast.
