It's January 2026 and currently we do not know what Wizards of the Coast is releasing in 2026. We think Dark Sun is on the way but we don't know for sure. I've seen some discussion of this on ENWorld where people are saying, "Its not that unusual", but this is like entering 2026 without knowing what DC was going to do with Batman or Marvel was going to do with Spider-Man.
I don't want to apply anything sinister to this because, sadly, the people running Hasbro and WotC just aren't great at marketing. They are great at making money and laying people off but not marketing and especially not understanding the DnD consumer.
I've run a Wizards Premiere Network store since 1999 (we opened in 1981) and DnD fans are far more responsive to unpopular decisions made by WotC than Magic players. DnD Fans will very quickly take action to demonstrate those feelings (like cancelling DnD Beyond subs during the OGL fiasco).
I hope we know something by February and I'm looking forward to know stuff especially after truly enjoying the new DnD starter box and both Forgotten Realms books.
