Daggerheart’s big plans for the future prove that the game will have long legs, with years of content teased by the game’s makers… and that could well turn it into the biggest D&D rival around.
Earlier this month, Darrington Press pulled back the curtain on the future of Daggerheart, its recently released tabletop RPG during a panel at Gen Con 2025.

Seeing as D&D is unquestionably one of the best tabletop RPGs around (and certainly the most popular), that's no small task.
