From Amazon:
A perpetual haze of dreary rain hangs over the spires of Ravnica. Bundled against the weather, the cosmopolitan citizens in all their fantastic diversity go about their daily business in bustling markets and shadowy back alleys. Through it all, ten guilds--crime syndicates, scientific institutions, church hierarchies, military forces, judicial courts, buzzing swarms, and rampaging gangs--vie for power, wealth, and influence. These guilds are the foundation of power on Ravnica. They have existed for millennia, and each one has its own identity and civic function, its own diverse collection of races and creatures, and its own distinct subculture. Their history is a web of wars, intrigue, and political machinations as they have vied for control of the plane.
Apparently this is coming November 20, 2018 - interesting crossover.
I get the sense that this will be more than what was done for Kaladesh or Ixalan.
I'm excited. Ravnica is my home plane, so to speak, and ill be happy to take anything thats gamable from it, even if I don't actually run a campaign there.
Well, there goes the "we don't cross the streams in our products" argument right out the window, together with both the barrel, the baby, and the bathwater.
Now can we finally get Illithid and Beholders in M:TG?

If the magic team were cool with bringing the stream crossing to their side they would have called the Azra Tieflings. But who knows.
I got a feeling that this is going to be like the City of Ravens novel in feel when it comes to setting. Well, unless they have Seb McKinnon do the artwork for the Orzhov district...
You might be forgiven if you think you accidently ended up in Bloodborne or Dark Souls.
He's running a kickstarter for playmats right now. I might ask him if he did any work for this book.

1. (Ravnica Allegiance): You can't keep a good esper control deck down... Or Wilderness Reclamation... or Gates...
2. (War of the Spark): Guys, I know what we need! We need a cycle of really idiotic flavor text victory cards! Jace's Triumph...
3. (War of the Spark): Lets make the format with control have even more control!

I'm probably way off-base, but... what if the third name-to-be-announced Ravnica set (which we know does not focus on the 10 Guilds, and presumably features Nicol Bolas's invasion) is a full-blown D&D / MTG crossover set?

It's about time for the reserved list to die, for the sake of Vintage and Legacy (And Commander).
Jay also posted that there are map and dice pack accessories listed under the same name, updated OP.
I assume the map pack will be the punch-out tiles like the City, Dungeon, and Outdoors sets they have, not an actual map of Ravnica, but hopefully they will provide some of that separately, maybe at least the Tenth District.

Like most said they did it for free for zendikar, kaladesh, Innistrad, Amonkhet, and Ixalan.
Lets just hope the price makes a inprovement in the quality of the product (in material and content).
Sad that Ravnica is just a cash grab.
Wizards need to expand on plane idea and stories imo
Presumably iot will have way more information...granted I sawa good fan made conversion of Ravnica to 5e....I think it should be findable if you go to r/Unearthed Arcana and search Ravnica.

It's unlikely that they would print a full hardcover book for some stuff they could have done in an Unearthed Arcana pdf.
I got into role playing lately through the Ixalan material they provided and it's great fun. I want this for every world!
Ixalan is fun for those wanting to Adventure in a high fantasy California gold rush setting. I'd probably go planescape route with it so people can play normal d&d races and classes.
Ravnica is going to be more open as to what adventures people can run. At least I think it will. It depends on how close they play it to the Bolas take over timeline.

I don't know if this is considered necoring or not, but they did release an Unearthed Arcana that is like a playtest of the races that will be included in the setting.
Embrace the dark you call a home,
Gaze upon an empty, white throne
A legacy of lies,
A familiar disguise
Sing with me a song of conquest and fate
The black pillar cracks beneath its weight
Night breaks through the day, hard as a stone
Lost in thoughts all alone

* A lot of new and weird playable races
* One background for each Guild
* Rules for law magic
* Homunculi
I honestly hope they really make that a solid campaign book.
