8 JULY 2026 – Dungeons & Dragons today announced that pre-orders are available for Arcana Unleashed, a new high-magic expansion for players and Dungeon Masters (DMs) featuring powerful spellcasting options, evolving magic items, arcane factions, and magical threats that can shape the fate of entire worlds. The announcement coincides with the start of Campaign 2 of Dungeon Masters, Dungeons & Dragons‘ actual play series on YouTube featuring Jasmine Bhullar (DesiQuest, Dimension 20), Devora Wilde (Baldur’s Gate III), Neil Newbon (Baldur’s Gate III), Christian Navarro (13 Reasons Why, Forgotten Realms), and Mayanna Berrin (Dispatch, The Dungeon Run).

The core Arcana Unleashed book is the definitive guide for players and DMs to unleash legendary magic in their D&D campaigns and create powerful spellcasters.

For players and DMs looking for the complete high-magic experience, the Arcana Unleashed Ultimate Bundle combines the core book, alongside Arcana Unleashed: Deadfall, and the Arcana Unleashed Map Pack in both digital and physical formats, offering everything needed to build campaigns based around dazzling spellcasters and magic-infused settings. 

Arcana Unleashed: Deadfall is a wizard-war adventure for DMs and high-level players that plunges heroes into the fractured magocracy of Thay, where alliances are fragile, magic is deadly, and the lich Szass Tam must be stopped at any cost. 

The Arcana Unleashed Magical Map Pack brings the setting’s arcane battlegrounds to life across 10 beautifully illustrated tactical maps designed for spell-slinging duels, magical showdowns, and faction-driven conflict. Each map provides a stage for spellcasting spectacle and intrigue, with monster tokens, magical constructs, traps, and arcane terrain pieces to help visualize magical combat and high-stakes encounters.

Arcana Unleashed will be released officially on September 15, 2026 and can be pre-ordered here: D&D Beyond
