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.
— The Dungeons & Dragons Team

Posted Oct 25, 2025I lt was a good step a good idea. It was just riddled with unoptimization and never had the support it needed . I hope leadership have learned a variable lession not to through money and think that's enough . You need resources and time and belive in the people to push and work on something. They love to completion .

Posted Oct 25, 2025Can I also get 6 months free sub because I was just too busy to look at it and it does seem pretty cool. And also I've been here a while and am still supporting you and it would massively increase my loyalty :P

Posted Oct 25, 2025Sad to see Sigil go, it had some nice potential.
I just hope the team can now focus on MAPS and improve it. Maybe one day we'll be able to use the 3d-tokens in MAPS.
Just have every adventure and book come out with a MAPS-integration and we'll be on a good track.

Posted Oct 25, 2025The fate of this project was clear from the very first moment. Yet another WoTC predictable move on the road of self destruction.

Posted Oct 25, 2025If you don't mind me saying it, if you won't use it any more, release the code, so people can fork it. Add the SRD to Sigil and let the community use the code to give it a new life.

Posted Oct 25, 2025Yeah, one fiasco after another.
I'm not going to mince words - you guys are making it REALLY hard to justify any spending whatsoever on DDB.
Look...the Maps VTT and Encounters builder are your LAST chance to keep any semblance of a supportive fanbase. Get those wrong and you've lost. Too many of us are already finding our D&D joys elsewhere, whether it's adventures, settings, character & monster options or gameplay tools.
Happy to still root for you as long as you start getting things right. Wouldn't that be something...

Posted Oct 25, 2025Fair – tough decision, but stopped in time.
Sigil had great potential, and I was already working on campaigns to support the immersive feeling with this solution. It probably wasn't meant to be.
Please refocus on the ongoing betas: keep working on MapsVTT (dynamic view, encounters, etc.) – you're already behind (compared to others).
Heads up and keep going!

Posted Oct 25, 2025We all knew this was going to be the end result of the project from the beginning, Cocks and Williams were SO sure this would work even though they come from a fundamentally different industry (and from departments in said industry that had no real experience to the positions they were getting into here) and never seemed to understand how TTRPGs really worked.
At least this means they can now focus on continuing development and improvement of MAPS (at least they will if they have anything resembling a brain).

Posted Oct 25, 2025This is genuinely the last straw I have with WOTC I stopped all my campaigns back in August and now I am just fully done. This was a basically finished system and none of these “rewards” are at all worth in value what we paid for. This company is a joke. I wish dndbeyond was never purchased by WOTC

Posted Oct 25, 2025I'm probably not going to be popular by saying this - But focusing on Maps will probably be of much more value for the bigger community rather than working on two features (Maps AND Sigil). Sigil was for those with special interest, and it took too much time for a DM to build something that could work for their campaign. I'm pretty sure the people taking this decision has been looking at how much this tool has been used in the community, and looked at what it costs to maintain it.
Maps is easier to use, and hopefully used by many which make it worth investing in continious development from a WOTC perspective.

Posted Oct 25, 2025Back in 4th Ed, the Head guy who was working on the Digital tools/VTT, died, and apparently no one could acces the data and the source code.
And the lukewarm reception of 4th ed also played a role in it, cause in an Edition that WAS supposed to have digital tools to support it and make things easier, they waited for the game to be launched and in everyone's hands, before starting on the Digital tools support...
Yeah WotC logic...

Posted Oct 25, 2025What about those who got the free figures and figure costumes and other stuff for sigil? That would have been a major time waster going through the shop and getting all that stuff for nothing! Imagine those who went through the trouble of downloading it recently! That's a big blow for newly subscribed membership customers. How are they going to compensate those people?
