WoTC is partnering with FoundryVTT to enhance it's 5e game system. They will also be selling the revamped books later this year.

There is no overlap with DND beyond, unfortunately. More info at FAQ below:

D&D has been on Foundry for ages. And you get a pretty good UX if you make some effort to sail the seven seas.

Yeah that's what I do now. That game system was made entirely by the foundry creator with the srd without any WoTC input. Now WoTC is partnering to add more content. They'll also sell books this year and adventure modules.

I'm most interested in the new sheet and the token creator.

This will be adventure modules and other official content to be purchased. Hopefully with all the bells and whistles you can have in Foundry.

Not sure if there is a big market, as most foundry users are comfortable putting the scenes together already.
