Editing Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition (section)

==5.5 Confirmed!==
{{main|One D&D}}
It [https://www.resetera.com/threads/d-ds-new-evolution-announced-for-2024.492066/ has been announced] that WotC will release new versions of the core rulebooks in 2024 to celebrate the game's 50th anniversary.  These new versions will be backwards compatible. May be named 6th edition for marketing purposes. So far, they seem to be going with '''[[One D&D]]''' as a codename, but just like '''D&D Next''' before it, it's likely provisional but representative of the ambition to unify the shifting ruleset into one place that is updated physically as well as digitally.

August saw the release of the first playtest doc as a part of Unearthed Arcana, showcasing how Races, Backgrounds and Feats will be redone. September saw the release of a second playtest doc, focusing on the Expert Classes (Bard, Ranger and Rogue). December saw the release of a third playtest doc, originally to focus on the Priest Classes (Cleric, Druid, Paladin) but due to feedback to the first survey was rejigged to just showcase the Cleric, a redo of the Dragonborn (taking the feedback that it was worse than the Fizbans version into account), a redo of the Ardling to give it more defined separation from Aasimar, an expanded Goliath that gives them Giant ancestry so they function like Giant themed Dragonborn almost, amongst other things.
