D&D returns to its one of its earliest settings by kicking off an organized play campaign at Gen Con

Dungeons & Dragons is launching a new organized play campaign called "Legends of Greyhawk" at Gen Con, the largest gaming convention in North America. The campaign takes players back to the original Greyhawk setting created by D&D co-creator Gary Gygax. The campaign promises "less rules, more fun" and allows players to start at level 1 and progress to level 3 after completing at least three adventures. Players can use the free D&D Beyond Basic Rules to participate, with additional perks for D&D Beyond account holders. The campaign will run at several other conventions this year before being made widely available for organized play in 2026. The decisions made by players during these early adventures will shape the future of the campaign, which is entering its beta phase. Gen Con will also feature a preview of the upcoming "Heroes of the Forgotten Realms" and "Adventures in the Forgotten Realms" books, as well as the chance to try out the "Heroes of the Borderlands" starter set.
