The Return of Planescape and More
Apparently, Spelljammer wasn’t the only classic Dungeons & Dragons setting WotC will be reviving. When the rest of the D&D slate of products was revealed, there’s no doubt the most notable release will be the return of Planescape, a classic D&D campaign setting from 1994. Like Spelljammer, it was much, much weirder than classic fantasy role-playing games, but unlike wizards simply jetting through space in pirate ships, Planescape created a multidimensional reality full of worlds gods, factions, and powers. It even allowed characters to travel between worlds like the Forgotten Realms and Ravenloft, for instance. Here’s the rest of D&D’s slate:
• Keys from the Golden Vault—Ocean’s Eleven meets D&D in this book of short adventures revolving around heists. (Winter 2023)
• Bigby Presents: Glory of the Giants—A companion to last year’s Fizban’s Treasury of Dragons focused on giants. (Spring 2023)
• The Book of Many Things—A collection of creatures, locations, and other goodies that are connected to the mysterious Deck of Many Things. (Summer 2023)
• The Phandelver Campaign—Expands the classic Lost Mine of Phandelver into a full campaign tinged with cosmic horror. (Summer 2023)
• Planescape—The legendary setting returns! Like Spelljammer: Adventures in Space, Planescape is a three-book slipcase: setting guide, bestiary, and adventure campaign. (Fall 2023)
