Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition
In January 2012, Wizards of the Coast announced that a new edition of the game, at the time referred to as D&D Next, was under development.[1] In direct contrast to the previous editions of the game, D&D Next was developed partly via a public open playtest.[2] An early build of the new edition debuted at the 2012 Dungeons & Dragons Experience event to about 500 fans.[3] Public playtesting began on May 24, 2012,[4] with the final playtest packet released on September 20, 2013.[5]
The 5th edition's Basic Rules, a free PDF containing complete rules for play and a subset of the player and DM content from the core rulebooks, was released on July 3, 2014.[6] The Starter Set was released on July 15, featuring a set of pre-generated characters, a set of instructions for basic play, and the adventure module Lost Mine of Phandelver.[7] The Player's Handbook was released on August 19, 2014.[8] The fifth edition Monster Manual was released on September 30, 2014.[9] The Dungeon Master's Guide was released on December 9, 2014.[10] The edition returns to having only three core rule books, with the Player’s Handbook containing most major races and classes.
