Wizards of the Coast, the company behind Dungeons and Dragons, have announced an all-new actual play series called Dungeon Masters.
Releasing on April 22nd on YouTube, the Dungeons and Dragons series will debut with a two-episode premiere, with the show airing every week after that. These episodes will showcase official, unreleased Dungeons & Dragons content, with visuals designed to help viewers follow the action on the board.
Dungeon Masters is bringing together famous and acclaimed talent from gaming, streaming and television to host the campaign. These stars include Jasmine Bhullar from DesiQuest and Dimension 20, who will be acting as the Dungeon Master, Mayanna Berrin from Dispatch and StoryQuest, and Christian Navarro from 13 Reasons Why and Forgotten Realms: Tears of Selune. There are even two stars from Baldur’s Gate III joining with both Astarion’s voice actor, Neil Newbon and Devora Wilde, Lae’zel’s voice actor, joining in on the fun.
“Dungeon Masters brings a truly authentic and original experience to our fans, with all of the fun, high-tension moments, drama and adventure built from official D&D material,” said SVP and Head of Dungeons & Dragons at Wizards of the Coast, Dan Ayoub.
“In many ways, Dungeon Masters is our love letter to the actual play shows that have introduced so many to D&D. Our aim with Dungeon Masters is to crystallize all that’s great about actual play – the tension, drama, and unpredictable nature – and put our stamp on it with upcoming official source material. We’re so excited to see how Dungeon Masters can inspire even more adventure from our players, and in turn, see how they inspire us to make the show better and better,” Ayoub continued.
The first arc of the Dungeons and Dragons campaign will unfold in the realm of Ravenloft, the dark and atmospheric setting that is the focus of the recently announced Ravenloft: The Horrors Within. The campaign will also be joined by a score from five-time Grammy nominee David Arkenstone, who has worked on games, television and more throughout his career.
Tune in to Dungeon Masters when it airs on YouTube on April 22nd at 9:30 pm EDT.
