I just noticed that the post "D&D Release Dates for EMEA Region in 2025" has been updated. Earlier, the print release date for Forgotten Realms books was December 12th and for the Eberron book, December 9th. Now both list the EU release dates as "Early January". What happened? Why this new delay?
This article has all the information they've given us on the matter.
I know. That's where I got the new dates. But now it looks like they’ve removed the update from that page and reverted it to the original version from August.

And now the updated release dates are back. In EU the Eberron book and both Faerûn books will be released in "Early January". There is not even a specific date, just early January. The UK release dates are still in December (12th and 9th). Why this new delay? Why the EU dates were changed, but not the UK dates?

It might be printing, shipping or customs that cause those delays. And people here probably wont be able to tell you anymore than the article does: that WotC is aware of the problem and is trying to fix it. I agree that it is hard on us Europeans.

A one month delay is so long that someone must know the reason. It may be something they can't disclose. I just wonder why they don't print these books in Europe like they did with the PHB, DMG and MM. Most of the shipping issues would disappear if the books were printed in the EU.
Sometimes I get the new version: "This article was updated in November 2025." in Chrome, sometimes the old version: "This article was updated in October 2025." even in incognito window. Firefox seems to show the new version.
