D&D Direct – ‘Dragons Of Stormwreck Isle’ & More Revealed
D&D Direct was certainly fruitful, wasn’t it? Here’s a look at Dragons of Stormwreck Isle and everything else at D&D Direct.
D&D Direct unveiled a big look at the future of D&D. And a big part of that is the new starter set, Dragons of Stormwreck Isle. We got our first, bigger glimpse of the starter set. As well as a look at the artist credits. Check it out.

This new starter set looks promising. And in fact, upon closer inspection, it looks like Hank the Ranger and Diana the Acrobat are teaming up to take on this blue dragon.

D&D Direct also gave us a look at the future of both Neverwinter and Baldur’s Gate 3. Neverwinter has a new Dragon-themed expansion coming.

And while we won’t see the rest of the game until 2023, that launch date looks to be fairly solid.
The future of D&D looks bright indeed!
