You can now finally get a reprint of the original setting, even in hardcover.

Is it 5e? No. I'm sorry, it isn't.

But for those desperate for the material that've had a hard time getting a hold of it, it's not too terribly difficult to convert older material to 5E.

Its a start.

Hope this at least helps somebody out there.

Awesome!

I saw a rumor somewhere recently (maybe it was on Bell of Lost Souls?) that D&D will be bringing back three classic campaign settings next year. I sincerely hope that Planescape and Dark Sun are two of the three.

Ha. I wonder if my mom still has that book in my old house. It's been a LONG time.

That would make my millennium.

The Bone Stone & Obsidian podcast recently interviewed a couple DMs who are running actual play podcast/campaigns in 5e Dark Sun and they referenced several high quality DM's Guild publications they used to bring Dark Sun into 5e. Anyone looking to do the same, check out the podcast and take some of their ideas.

haha - now that I have kids, I get packages from time to time with random toys/books etc from my childhood that my mom wants my kids to play with.

Always a fun blast from the past.

Ooooo, nice! I already own the PDF but I am ordering the hardcover now. Ditto the Dragon Kings hardcover and The Will and the Way softcover.
