Published Fri, 11 Mar 2022 15:02:08 -0600

Dungeons & Dragons fans are going to be getting some amazing games this month as a slew of them are coming in a Gold Box Classic collection. If you're a PC gamer of the '80s and '90s, this is going to be a dream come true as practically every video game that ever had the D&D license attached to it will become available to own on Steam in one giant collection, or individually if you're only looking for specific titles. Publisher SNEG has faithfully brought all of these games out of the dusty top shelf of your closet and given them a digital revitalization so they look their absolute best.

What's more, each of them has also been given some improvements as you'll have enhanced features that work with companion apps, as well as a unified launcher system, a character party transfer tool, and customized DOSBox updates. We have the complete list of titles below for you as this collection will be made available on March 29th, 2022.
