To which he replied with a resounding &#8220;yes&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are you ready for a New Universe? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, they were asked to elaborate on their response. Their response was that, even though Faerun is the most well-known setting in Dungeons &amp; Dragons and what a large part of the audience expects, <strong>they are working on going beyond expectations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Planescape: Torment Enhanced Edition | Gameplay Trailer [GOG]\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wvsqfuRHmb8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Ayoyb has not clarified exactly what he is referring to, we have some clear candidates among the game settings. Wizards has already stated in the past that they wanted to expand their presence in the world of video games, <strong>pointing out examples such as Eberron, a steampunk world with touches of adventure in the style of Indiana Jones, and Dragonlance, a classic fantasy setting that revolves around dragons and struggles between kingdoms, as possible candidates<\/strong> for this. In addition, Ayoyb has stated in the interview that he is involved in an Eberron game as a player, which may not imply anything, but it shows that it is not a forgotten setting by Wizards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we have already mentioned, there is still no concrete plan that they have wanted to share with the public. Even if this would not be the first time they make a video game outside of Faerun and the Forgotten Realms, <strong>as it already happened in the acclaimed Planescape: Torment, celebrated as one of the best RPGs of all time<\/strong>. That is why, although we will still have to wait to know more, we are sure that Dungeons &amp; Dragons fans will not stop having reasons to enjoy the game.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Baldur's Gate 3\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/6e76581b-ade2-4196-b472-182d00f9cfc0\/1800331033\/baldurs-gate-3-Download-Baldurs-Gate-3.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Baldur's Gate 3<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/baldurs-gate-3.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/baldurs-gate-3.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wizards of the Coast has announced that they are working on more Dungeons &amp; Dragons games, and at least one will not take place in the Forgotten Realms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9268,"featured_media":276950,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","wpcf-pageviews":1},"categories":[1018,1015],"tags":[3975,3997,4382],"usertag":[],"vertical":[],"content-category":[],"class_list":["post-276948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gaming","category-news","tag-baldurs-gate","tag-dungeons-dragons","tag-wizards-of-the-coast"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276948","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9268"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=276948"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276948\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":314066,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276948\/revisions\/314066"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/276950"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=276948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=276948"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=276948"},{"taxonomy":"usertag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/usertag?post=276948"},{"taxonomy":"vertical","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vertical?post=276948"},{"taxonomy":"content-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-category?post=276948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
