Wizards of the Coast and Invoke have shown new Warlock gameplay from Gamescom Opening Night Live, featuring character Tasha and systems-driven magic that turns environments into tactical assets. The Dungeons & Dragons action-adventure is targeting a 2027 release on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

The character instructs Kaatri on how to sense Raw Magic, a force reportedly hidden throughout Darkon that can expand and transform her magical ability.
Kaatri converts terrain, enemy placement and even weather conditions into tactical advantages, reportedly chaining spells together before following up with expertise as a seasoned weapons master.
