Dungeons & Dragons ‘heading to inclusive oblivion’ after removing racial differences

Dungeons & Dragons has been criticised for removing racial differences between its cast of orcs, elves and dwarves.

In the new rule-book for the fantasy table-top game, released in September 2024, orcs are no longer inherently strong, nor elves intrinsically brainy.

Wizards of the Coast (WOTC), the game’s publisher, has also dropped a post-apocalyptic setting that featured slavery as part of a drive to make the game more inclusive.
