D&D 5E (2024) Predict WotC's 2026 D&D releases

[Azzy]

If we're going to be doing licensed D&D beyond MTG, I'd like to start with brands Hasbro already has; give me Transformers!

There is a licensed Transformer RPG that draws quite a bit from 5e.

Now that previews are rolling out for the Forgotten Realms books -- the last physical books we know of -- I expect we'll be hearing about at least the first 2026 books in the next few weeks.

WotC has been posting lion people. What is that from?

I believe they might be the Leonins from Theros, unless they are just lion variants of the Tabaxi.

I think they're using leonins to get in on the lion meme.

Cool art.

Having glanced at this, I'm kind of thinking (even if it goes against "canon" Eberron) of a campaign that connects Baldur's Gate to Sharn somehow. And our hardboiled PCs have to head over the divide...

Maybe they're Aslan because we are finally getting a Traveller crossover?

Too much to hope the lion people are leonals (Talisid is about as close to Aslan as D&D is likely to get). I figure the Yugoloths are due an AP as the big bad, and Guardianals must be the natural enemy of Yugoloths (and both are likely a lot more subtle than their lawful or chaotic counterparts), so maybe some kind of espionage. I always try to work "is that a centaur? It is half horse and half man, but I thought it was the other way around" whenever I use an equinal outside of the upper planes.
