[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 9385171, member: 11760"] [IMG width="407px"]https://i.pinimg.com/originals/7f/f6/5d/7ff65d2555c95097402ca4e6f4194f9d.jpg[/IMG] The screen and character sheets will be out before the 2025 Monster Manual, meaning that we don't have any definitive word of what comes next. I'd guess we get both an adventure collection and a full-length adventure campaign later in 2025. What else, though, is a big question mark for me. A new Starter Set will make Target happy and WotC has historically liked having fresh new boxed sets on shelves on a regular basis. It's certainly possible that either Greyhawk or the Forgotten Realms will get a full campaign setting guide. I would bet against it, but if it happens, 2025 would make the most sense, as lots of new campaigns will likely be launching. If I were WotC -- which I am obviously not -- I would probably save the new Everything book until early 2026, so that they can hear feedback on how the 2024 PHB worked out. which will help inform the tweaks to legacy prestige classes they will bring forward. Since I don't think WotC or book sellers want the old trade dress sitting next to the new trade dress longer than they need to be ([USER=59816]@FitzTheRuke[/USER] can correct me if I'm wrong, but my sense is that customers drop what's perceived to be old and incompatible, even if that's not really true), so we'll start seeing a schedule of re-releasing lightly updated adventure books, starting with Curse of Strahd and the other most popular books to the new trade dress. At some point, I'd expect Monsters of the Multiverse to get a new trade dress or -- because two of the races in it have made the jump to the 2024 PHB -- either get a light update or fully replaced. But that feels like a 2026 or 2027 book, since MotM appears to be less work to use with the new books than Xanathar's and Tasha's. (And it doesn't have any subclasses like the Twilight cleric that WotC will either want to massively revise or just let go out of print.) For whatever reason, WotC no longer seems keen to release MTG settings for D&D, although it's still IP they own, so maaaaybe. Anything I'm missing? What do you think? [/QUOTE]
