I thought I would mention here that the guys at Open Ended Games have posted a short (~23 minutes) end-of-year "Questions & Answers" video on Youtube.
The most noteworthy piece of news to come out of the Q&A, in my opinion, is that in 2026 we will see a VsD city adventure -- Trouble in Greyport -- from legendary game designer Graeme Davis (who is most famous for his work on Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, but has written for many other systems as well). I'm really looking forward to reading this module and hope that it will have a little of that old school "grim and perilous" Warhammer flavour!
Also coming out is an adventure set in some "badlands" or wastes for higher level characters (levels 7-10) by Gabe Dybing (whose previous VsD module is The Crown of Castle Cynehelm). I look forward to checking this out as well, especially given that there is not much available for VsD in this level range (probably only the latter part of the epic Secrets of the Golden Throne campaign).
Some kind of supplement for higher-level (10+) characters is in the works but is unlikely to come out in 2026.
Overall, the wheels keep turning for VsD. I liked both of the adventures that came out in 2025: The Crown of Castle Cynehelm and the dwarf-focused The Mines of Kor-Khazan. Both have a (more or less) "sandbox" (or "setting" + "situation") structure to them, with the course of action very much in the hands of the players. But I do wish that the maps in OEG's adventures would include proper scales!
