[QUOTE="Gradine, post: 7749052, member: 57112"] If they hadn't already just done so in 4e, I'd say we'd be more likely to see a new setting that captures some of the feel of Greyhawk without it actually being Greyhawk; ie: few bastions of safety and civilization, a lot of the world is ill-defined, in other words, Points of Light. At this point I don't see either Greyhawk/Blackmoor/Mystara or Nentir Vale to see a 5e revival beyond opening up on DM's Guild, and I also don't really see a [I]new[/I] setting in the works either (if anything, I'd more likely expect to a expect a total genre shift, ala D20 Modern or Starfinder, not that I consider that very likely either). We're not gonna see Dark Sun without Psionics and we're not gonna see Eberron with the Artificer, so until those two drop in final form it's very unlikely we'll here anything about them. Planescape & Spelljammer seem the most likely, and I'm expecting that they'll try to find some way to merge or otherwise connect the two (if we've learned anything WotC's business model for 5e, they'll try to make the product as broad as possible to increase the market). I'd expect it to drop in one of two forms: 1): Primus's Primer to the Planes (seems unlikely given Tome of Foes' content, but could still be possible) 2): The Great March (adventure that kicks off in <insert Sword Coast city here> but swiftly sends adventures to Sigil and has them either fiddling around with portals and/or gives them a spelljammer).
