AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Sarah J. Maas has officially announced the titles and release dates for ACOTAR books 6 and 7, which will launch alongside an upcoming franchise video game.
The wait for the next chapter of Prythian is finally nearing an end. As reported by Game Rant, author Sarah J. Maas has officially confirmed the titles for books 6 and 7 in the massive A Court of Thorns and Roses series. Book 6 will be titled A Court of Splintered Harmony and is scheduled to drop on October 27 with an MSRP of $32.00, while Book 7 carries the title A Court of Forgotten Melody and arrives on January 12, 2027, priced at $38.00. These upcoming releases kick off a brand new narrative arc known as The Valkyrie Cycle, with Koschei the Deathless stepping up as the primary antagonist.
This announcement is a massive win for the romantasy community, which has seen explosive cultural growth thanks to platforms like BookTok. Bloomsbury Publishing is pulling out all the stops for the rollout, promoting the covers and titles on digital billboards across major cities like Los Angeles and New York City. For fans who consume their entertainment across multiple mediums, the timing gets even better. An officially licensed ACOTAR game is set to launch just weeks before the books hit shelves, giving players a chance to fully immerse themselves in the fantasy lore before diving into the new written chapters.
The structure of this new arc deviates from traditional trilogies, which explains the unique pacing and pricing strategy. Maas has outlined that the overarching Valkyrie Cycle will span multiple books, with Book 6 acting as the introduction and subsequent entries handling later movements of the story. Whether you are tracking pre-orders at retailers like Target or waiting for the upcoming game adaptation, the renewed momentum around the franchise proves that fantasy IP remains a dominant force across reading, gaming, and streaming spaces alike.
