Dungeons & Dragons saw a big shift in its digital strategy, as Wizards of the Coast laid off 90% of the staff behind its big 3D VTT. Meanwhile, Free League launched a big Kickstarter campaign for an Alien RPG update. And Sirius Dice is honoring Earth Day with a premium product.
WotC showed off its VTT at GenCon, content creators got punished for showing early previews of the 2024 Player’s Handbook, Brandon Sanderson scored a huge win, and Free League announced a new Alien update.
This week, WotC hires a former World of Warcraft lead, Stormlight RPG previews some gameplay, Level Up A5E is working on its own VTT, Gen Con will sell limited 2024 DnD books, and Manual of the Planes 5e runs into publishing issues.
