Press Release
D&D | WORLD OF WARCRAFT
The first expansion for D&D under the new Universes Beyond banner is D&D: World of Warcraft, coming November 17, 2026, to anchor the Season of Champions. With this book, created in tandem with Blizzard Entertainment, Inc., Warcraft returns to the tabletop for the first time in two decades. This Gameplay Expansion invites players to “roll for Azeroth” as they recreate their World of Warcraft main character or roll a new alt and explore beloved zones, delve through familiar dungeons, and face legendary foes from over 20 years of history for the World of Warcraft franchise. D&D: World of Warcraft will also include iconic dungeons adapted from the game for Dungeons & Dragons.
Additionally, fans can relive one of Azeroth’s most legendary raids with the Icecrown Citadel Map Pack. The Map Pack includes full-size poster maps and tokens usable with an included digital adventure that brings characters from level 16 to level 20 as they challenge a dozen high-level bosses—or perish trying.
“World of Warcraft and Dungeons & Dragons are both built on a powerful idea: give players a world full of possibility, then let them make the story their own,” said Holly Longdale, Executive Producer and Vice President, World of Warcraft at Blizzard Entertainment. “Azeroth has always meant something different to everyone who steps into it, whether it’s built upon the heroes they become, the friends they find, or the choices they make along the way. Bringing World of Warcraft to the D&D table is a chance for players to carry that spirit forward in a whole new way: your character, your party, your story.”
