Post-apocalyptic D&D Dark Sun returns, and it's so graphic that lawyers insisted the 18+ book is shrink-wrapped

A heavily-armed warrior with a bare chest and skulls attached to his belt holds his weapons up to the sky against a blazing yellow and red sun.

Post-apocalyptic D&D world Dark Sun is being revamped in early 2027, and it'll be the first 18+ setting for the tabletop RPG.

There's a good reason for that mature age-rating. The returning D&D franchise (which takes place in a world devastated by magic) is going all in on the gore, sex, and bleak atmosphere of its inspiration. Unlike many of the best tabletop RPGs, you don't save the kingdom in Dark Sun; you're simply trying to survive it.
