More than likely. Why wouldn't we? They stated multiple dozens of cantrips and spells with be added.

You can already get the blade cantrips through many mods, most notably Mystra's Spells, my fave. That said, I agree I can't see how Larian can do bladesinger without them. Or adding smites to other classes besides paladins -- like the bladesinger. Possibly even new smites. We'll see.

One thing: Mystra's doesn't put them on the spell list every where I would. For example, really makes sense to me bards should get booming blade. But very cool, they do become choices for Spell Sniper feat when you choose that.

Secret Scrolls (when it's working properly) also lets me give Alfira Thunderous Smite, which I also think she should have. C'mon, a bard can blast enemies with sonic thunder, their weapons should be able to, also. The best thing about Secret Scrolls is giving other classes besides your paladin smites.

But, we may be getting that option from Larian itself with the bladesinger, as I said.

Oh, and BTW, because it's been a Nexus subclass mod for quite a while, there's already quite a few equipment mods for them.

It's a wizard subclass, wizards get cantrips, so yes the new subclass will get cantrips.

It's not about it getting cantrips it's that in table top there are a couple cantrips that perfectly go with bladesinger That currently aren't in the game

So does Mystra's Spells, Also, there is a 5E Spells at mod.io, which is not the same as 5E Spells at Nexus, and less complete. But it has them, too.

In fact, there's other mods that I think add them, but, why not get all the OTHER spells these mods bring. JMHO as I've said many times: Mystra's has a lot more spells available than Nexus 5E spells, and they are for more classes than just wizards. Only lack is scrolls (not such a big deal, but even scrolls for 5E spells requires the additional 5E Secret Scrolls mod, and if that one is behaving like the other Secret Scrolls mod, it might be ... flaky). And yeah, 5E Spells has a smattering of 7th-9th level spells, as of now Mystra's has none; that said, the author is working on it.

I will concede a few older Nexus-only class and subclass mods only integrate with the older 5E spells, not the newer Mystra's spells. Nexus Artificer is one.
