Dire Wolf has put a date on The Last Battle, a premium bundle for War of the Dragon: The Wheel of Time, with a 2027 release. Right now, it looks like the only Wheel of Time project on the calendar with a clearly stated 2027 window. The name makes it easy to assume something bigger is coming, but this isn’t a new novel, film, or TV series.
The tabletop campaign has already brought in more than $1.16 million from 6,156 backers, far past its original $50,000 goal, according to the campaign page.
So if you’re waiting for the franchise to return to screens, this isn’t the announcement you’ve been hoping for.
Prime Video canceled The Wheel of Time live-action series after three seasons, with reports citing high costs and lukewarm viewership. Showrunner Rafe Judkins disputed that explanation, though, arguing that audience numbers weren’t really the issue.
On iwot Studios’ current roadmap for the franchise, The Wheel of Time is still supposed to move ahead with a new animated series, multiple animated films with Arcane producer Thomas Vu attached, a live-action prequel trilogy called The Age of Legends with Kari Skogland directing the first film, and a AAA open-world RPG.
Still, a lot of those projects don’t have firm timelines, distribution plans, or a full creative picture yet, so fans are stuck in a familiar place: hopeful, but skeptical.
For the moment, the only clearly dated Wheel of Time release for 2027 is on the tabletop side, through Dire Wolf.
