Dungeons & Dragons – All Available 5e Settings Explained

Earlier this month, we had a chance to read an article dedicated to Dungeons & Dragons’ recent surge in popularity. And in case it made you interested in revisiting the venerable pen and paper RPG in its current 5th Edition iteration, you might enjoy this Game Rant article that offers a quick overview of all available 5E settings. A couple of sample paragraphs:

The high-magic fantasy world of Ravnica was originally made for the Magic: The Gathering collectible card game, and in 2018, The Guildmaster’s Guide to Ravnica brought that world to 5e. This one is more along the lines of Greyhawk and Eberron in that it isn’t connected to the Forgotten Realms; instead, Ravnica stands as a city of titanic proportions that spans the entire planet.

Now let’s move into the realm of less-supported settings with Dragonlance. This one, much like Greyhawk, has no recent 5th edition adventures to pick up. Rather, in an agreement between Wizards of the Coast and Sovereign Press, there’s a guide to converting older books from every different D&D edition to the rules of 5e. Dragonlance is an old favorite among the settings, largely due to the popular book series based on it, and players who bring their campaigns to Krynn will find it suited to tales of world-shaking wars and epic fantasy.
