I'm confused.I think what you mean is that "Planescape" is up next in the queue after "Icewind Dale," but we may not see it until early 2021. Yes?The problem with predicting when some sort of planes product comes out is that we have pretty much nothing to go on. There might be hints if we read into certain things at the exclusion of other things, but WotC has been really good at covering their tracks in the past. We can retro-actively look back and see the signs of various products, but they're mixed in with a lot of other stuff, so it would have been reasonable to assume any number of things for any given product.That said, the biggest clue might simply be the lack of a planes product, and the near-fact that a planes product is an inevitability. WotC has touched upon most of the major tropes of D&D history, with the glaring omissions being the planes and psionics. Given the problems with psionic playtests, it is logical to think that the planes are up first, so...I think the most we can say with some degree of confidence is that we're going to see a planes product of some kind, at some point relatively soon - and almost certainly before we see psionics. But what "some kind" and "relatively soon" mean...well, we don't know. It could be November 2020, or it could be 2022. I personally think 2021 is the most likely. It could be Xanathar 2 with planar rules, or it could be a true MotP (probably by a different name), or it could be a setting-theme sourcebook like Shemeska's Guide to Sigil and the Planes.</blockquote>
