Another D&D Book is Coming Between Wilds Beyond the Witchlight and Strixhaven

 Despite the past week being a whole event of D&D announcements, this tweet by Ray Winninger let slip that in addition to the recently leaked/announced Feywild adventure book The Wilds Beyond the Witchlight (project led by Chris Perkins) and Strixhaven: Curriculum of Chaos (led by Amanda Hamon, who worked on Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft) there's going to be another book released between those two led by James Wyatt.

Apparently, the Strixhaven book was announced early in order to let them put out the recent Unearthed Arcana with its available-to-multiple-classes subclass options that will be one of the main features of the Strixhaven campaign setting book.

Wilds Beyond the Witchlight is coming in September, while Strixhaven is coming in November, and this as-yet-unannounced-but-confirmed other book will be coming in October.

Wyatt has worked on D&D as well as Magic: the Gathering, and was the original author of the Plane Shift articles that eventually culminated in Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica, which he led. He then worked with F. Wesley Schneider on Mythic Odysseys of Theros (Schneider went on to be project lead on Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft, which Wyatt also contributed to.)

Wyatt has been working on D&D for a long time, so I don't know if we can explicitly pin down what we can expect the book to be, but my current theory is a Dragonlance setting book.

There are a few reasons to believe this: WotC and the Hickmans (who created the setting) just settled some legal dispute surrounding the rights to the world, which would seem to make this an opportune time to release a Dragonlance book. We also had those UAs recently that were dragon-themed, even naming some Dragonlance characters as the creators of some of the spells found within.

There was also some comment by a WotC person that I believe mentioned 3 classic campaign settings getting published this year. I'm willing to bet that that comment might have been misheard or misspoken, meaning we might be getting three settings period - and if we got Ravenloft, Strixhaven, and Dragonlance, that would add up to 3.

While this week had its Legend Lore event, in July we should be getting the D&D Celebration in September - and I think we can reasonably assume that we'll know what this third book is by then if not before.
