This article was updated in August 2025.
Last year, we shared that shipping challenges in the Asia Pacific region had caused release date delays to several D&D titles in 2024. Looking forward, we recognized that these delays were more systematic and ongoing, and so we announced that we would be releasing our 2025 D&D titles slightly later in the Asia Pacific region than elsewhere. The goal here is to avoid disruption caused by last-minute delay messages and make sure fans and stores have a clear picture of when they should look for these titles.
This page is going to be our anchor point for those APAC-specific release dates. We plan to update this page ahead of each 2025 product release to provide region-specific target release dates for these titles. The expected release dates are as follows:
Dragon Delves
- Australia, New Zealand: August 22
- Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, and Thailand: October 7
Starter Set: Heroes of the Borderlands
- Australia, New Zealand: September 30.
- Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, and Thailand: October 7
The Heroes of the Borderlands Digital Adventure Pack will still release on the global release date of September 16.
Stranger Things: Welcome to the Hellfire Club
- For all APAC markets, we currently expect to meet, or be very close to, the global release date of 7 October 2025. If this situation changes, we will update you further.
Forgotten Realms: Adventures in Faerûn & Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn
- We'll advise on the status of these releases closer to their expected launch on November 11.
Eberron: Forge of the Artificer
- We'll advise on the status of this release closer to its expected launch of December 9.
These are expected release dates, but if we’re able to get the title to retailers sooner, then they can be sold any time after the global release date. These region-specific dates are expectations, not restrictions.
Thank you,
