I don't know. Right now I have a new A5e campaign I'll be sticking with for a while – probably at least into next year.
My Shadowdark game is probably done in a month or two. I don't know yet what I'll run for them.
My twice-monthly group probably has another couple of months too. It's 2014 D&D + Xanathars + most of Tashas running the excellent Shadowed Keep on the Borderlands. It's online so the convenience of D&D Beyond is pretty useful.
I have a bunch of campaigns / systems I'd like to play:
Those are the ones off the top of my head.
I'm certainly not actively avoiding D&D 2024 but them saying things like "Frustrating for Dungeon Masters but fantastic for your party." and "monsters are going to hate this warlock" doesn't sell me that they had the DM in mind when they poured on new abilities for all the character classes in D&D 2024. It honestly looks like a pain in the ass to run so far. I hope I'm wrong.
So I have lots of options. Lots of 5e variants to try out. Lots of ways to customize D&D 2014 if I want. And lots of other systems my players and I are excited about.
We'll have to see!

I have a bunch of campaigns / systems I'd like to play:
- My own City of Arches (doing so now in my Wednesday group).
- Ptolus by Monte Cook, although I'm already running a city-based game.
- My own homebrewed Vecna adventure – this would work well with D&D 2024.
- Shadow of the Weird Wizard. I'm waiting for the physical books to come out.
- 13th Age r2. I love 13th Age. Again, waiting for the books so probably not until late next year.
- Dungeons of Drakkenheim. Looks fun, another dark city game though. Could be played with anything.
- Maybe Tales of the Valiant with some Midgard stuff. Perhaps a Wasted West or Dragon Empire homebrew game.
