The VTT system Roll20 and the character builder Demiplane are now owned by one company.
Roll20 , the largest VTT service for online tabletop roleplaying game play, has announced the acquisition of Demiplane , a character management and creation toolset known for its easy character creation tools for multiple game systems.
Lal noted that Demiplane's toolset filled a need in the tabletop RPG market, which was to create a D&D Beyond equivalent for other game systems. D&D Beyond, which was founded by Demiplane co-founder Demiplane and is now owned entirely by Wizards of the Coast, is credited as a major force behind the resurgence of Dungeons & Dragons over the past decade and onboarding millions of new players.
Roll20's acquisition of Demiplane won't have any immediate impact on users of either platform, but Demiplane CEO Peter Romenesko noted that the merged companies will look to close the difference between their two platforms very quickly."What you'll see is a very concentrated effort to bring the distance between each of these different solutions that are now under the Roll20 brand, really start to bring them closer," Romenesko told ComicBook.
Lal also confirmed to ComicBook that the acquisition of Demiplane would not impact Roll20's rollout of a new character creation toolset for Dungeons & Dragons on their platform, which is set to roll out in just a few weeks in early access. Lal said that the new character creation toolset for Dungeons & Dragons on Roll20 would be a"massive upgrade" compared to current character management systems on Roll20.
