Preorders are Open for the Definitive Editions

[Black Cat]

Update, Thursday, Jan 6, 2022: The shipping is now expected to start in February.

Update, Sunday, Oct 31: It is finally announced that the hardcover version of the first three books are now available for pre-order. It is also officially announced that Gary Chalk's artwork will be reused for book 2 to 8, with Nerdgore doing brand new artwork for book 1 and probably for the following books. However, shipping will start only in January. No info on the softbacks. Next books will be released in bundles of two or three (instead of one book each month, as it was originally planned). You can pre-order the books here (and enjoy a brand new cover for book 1 by Alberto Dallago): link

Original post, on Monday, Oct 25: For a few minutes today, it was possible to preorder the DE, hardback version of book 1 to 3 over at magnamund.com. Sadly, as soon as I've started talking about it, the links were removed. At least it means that they are close to announce something very soon! link

For the short time they were on the website, we noticed that it seems like Alberto Dallago made a brand new cover for book 1 (book 2 and 3 seem to reused the covers from the Italian edition). Also, we noted that Gary Chalk's illustrations are going to be reused for the interior artwork of book 2 and 3.

I've updated my first post.

There is a lot of information in the comments section from Ben.

-Ben confirms that future books should be released in batches of two or three books, "in a way that makes most sense to the story". Next batches should be books 4 & 5, then 6 & 7, and finally 8 to 10.
-Paperbacks of books 1 to 3 should be available next spring (April or May).
-The books will be released in epub format at the same time than the paperbacks.
-CE version of book 28 will come next year.
-Ben Devere might be going to London's Dragonmeet next December to use this event as a launch event for the DE (if he can get some copies printed in time).
-Ben confirms that Holmgard Press will release the best Bonus Adventures of the CE in a compendium at some point.
-To someone asking if the original 350-section version of FftD might get a re-release, Ben simply answered "Watch this space"
-The books is currently being translated to Spanish.

Holmgard Press modified the covers for books 2 and 3 to be consistent with book 1. Also, the size of the books was revealed: 5.5 x 8.5 inches (216 x 138 mm), which is slightly bigger than the Collector's Edition (4.5 x 7.25 inches). Of course, thickness will vary from book to book.
