To Our D&D Community,
We have made the difficult decision to end development on Sigil. This was not a decision made lightly, and it followed months of reflection with all teams involved. We’re deeply grateful to everyone who explored Sigil with us and shared in its journey. Your passion and feedback meant the world.
At Wizards of the Coast, our goal is to create experiences that help you tell incredible stories together, whether at the table, online, or anywhere you gather to play.
When we introduced Sigil, we imagined a powerful 3D virtual tabletop where you could share maps, minis, and environments with your friends and fellow players. While that vision inspired thousands of players and creators, we couldn't sustain the level of ongoing development support that Sigil—or our community—deserved. That’s on us. What we’ve learned from Sigil, and from your feedback, will guide how we approach future digital tools. We’ll take the time to do it right in pursuit of developing the best D&D experiences possible.
To everyone who built and played in Sigil—developers, DMs, players, and creators alike—thank you. Your time, creativity, and feedback made Sigil what it was. We know this decision hurts, especially for everyone who built campaigns, shared feedback, and believed in Sigil’s future. You deserve clarity about what happens next.
Six Months of Master Tier Credit
To thank those who led, experimented with, and hosted campaigns in Sigil using their Master Tier subscription, we’re deeply grateful for your time and passion.
If you used your paid or trial Master Tier subscription to access Sigil at least once any time between March 1, 2025, and yesterday 11:59 PM PT October 23, 2025, you'll receive a six-month Master Tier credit. This six-month Master Tier subscription credit will be granted and appear on your account by November 7, 2025.
If you already have an active subscription, this credit will effectively pause your current paid subscription and then resume it after the 6-month period. Please visit our Sigil Sunset FAQ for more information.
Sigil Available Through End-October 2026
You can continue running your campaigns as usual until the end of October 2026. All features and tier access will remain the same during that time. At the end of October, 2026, Sigil's servers will shut down, and content created within Sigil will no longer be accessible. We know many of you built incredible adventures in Sigil, and we’re grateful for the imagination and effort that brought them to life.
Coming Soon This Year
As soon as an update is available regarding the following items, we’ll share here and on our official D&D channels how to redeem. Thank you for your patience in the meantime.
Replacement Rewards for Pre-Order Customers
If you pre-ordered the 2024 Digital and Physical Core Rulebook Bundle on the D&D Beyond Marketplace, or on the international D&D Store, and received the Sigil-exclusive Gold Dragon Digital Miniature, you’ll receive a new digital dice set on D&D Beyond as a replacement reward.
A New Character Sheet Backdrop for All D&D Beyond Users
As a thank you for your patience and support, all registered D&D Beyond users will receive a new D&D Beyond character sheet backdrop.
Thank You for Your Support
To everyone who played, tested, and helped shape Sigil, thank you again. You made its taverns and dungeons sing, even if only for a while.
To the developers who brought Sigil to life, thank you for your vision, artistry, and dedication. Your work inspired the world of D&D and will shape future experiences fans will continue to enjoy.

Posted Oct 31, 2025No Maps is safe and being expanded and improved. They know it's the future to keep people subscribing to dndbeyond. I'm sure at some point in the future there will be 3 tiers with the 3rd being 'Maps features unlock.

Posted Oct 31, 2025Battlemarked has some similarities to DnD but it is mostly different from what I have heard. I have played a lot of Demeo and Battlemarked seems to be Demeo in a DnD skin.

Posted Oct 31, 2025Sigil was one of their better products and had awesome features like a the action economy toolbar so I don't have to sort through my character sheet endlessly. Maps is really a very basic VTT and Sigil was better organized. Well off to try Talespire with other systems.

Posted Nov 1, 2025Sigil was hindered the moment it was clear that it would be full of microtransactions (and needed a subscription to use) and the running requirements were too high, but it was DOA when we were informed that 90% of devs for it would be laid off nearly as soon as it was officially launched.
This vtt that looked like a wanna be video game was launched and then almost instantly put into matainence mode. Anyone who plays video games knows that means no new meaningful content will be added, so best not to get involved. Anyone who uses vtts knows that competitors are always getting/making more content for their vtts (which run more than just D&D), so they won't be flocking as quickly to put all their eggs in Sigil's basket. All that's left is a small slice of people who have rigs that can support running Sigil and want to make full use of the engines the devs used for making this vtt. That slice wasn't enough of the market though, was it?
Next time don't just release something that needs months of updates and fresh releases to actually get its feet under it and cut almost all the people who can do that just after launch. And don't make it a microtransaction farm. This was doomed as soon as those devs were fired.

Posted Nov 1, 2025Executive incompetence doomed this project from the start. The monetization was toxic and 90% of the production team was laid off far before this point. This beloved property is in the hands of greedy, dispassionate management that will never do it right ever again because they simply don't care about the product. They have a bottom line they think should be higher than it is and nothing else will ever matter to them. We'll never have a lovingly, competently written DnD product again until Hasbro sells the property.

Posted Nov 1, 2025So, to be clear, y'all created a vtt that was without competition far and away the best, made creative map building easy, and had tons of potential. Then you realized that to finish it would probably require making a few fewer awful MTG crossovers and killed it. Wonderful. As someone who lives across the country from the friends I play with I was super excited for this program. It needed to be optimized and new resources added, but otherwise it was well on its way to being excellent. Now I am back to 3rd party of 2d. I'd say I'm disappointed but, frankly, I'm not. I know wizards is a dreadful company who don't understand the value or success behind what they did. I had already expected y'all to kill this, so I can't say I'm disappointed. Just frustrated that I was right.

Posted Nov 1, 2025No no no, they have more resources to escalate MTG's dreadful powercreep with another dreadful crossover. Maybe my little pony next? Or Rupaul's drag? It'll be terrible whatever it is.

Posted Nov 2, 2025Well on its way to being excellent? Did I miss something? It didn't integrate with Beyond...at all. There was no way to import your characters into it, and it included a double fistful of monsters and other assets that were frankly underwhelming. I guess you could do all of the math and interactions elsewhere and just use the giant resource sucking 3d game as a literal tabletop with plastic stand-in tokens representing your characters and their foes. That would be...less than half of what the program was advertised to be, and there are other programs that do a better job.
