In 1983, TSR published an expanded boxed set of the campaign world, ''World of Greyhawk'',<ref>{{cite book |last=Gygax |first=Gary |author-link=Gary Gygax |title=World of Greyhawk Fantasy Game Setting |publisher=[[TSR, Inc.|TSR]] |year=1983 |location=Lake Geneva WI}}</ref> which is usually called the ''Greyhawk boxed set'' to differentiate it from other editions. According to game designer [[Jim Bambra]], "the second edition was much larger than the first and addressed itself to making the World of Greyhawk setting a more detailed and vibrant place".<ref name="Dragon #143"/> This edition quadrupled the number of pages from the original edition to 128, adding significantly greater detail. One major addition was a pantheon of deities: in addition to the nineteen deities outlined by Gygax in his ''Dragon'' article, another thirty-one new deities were added, though only three received full write-ups of their abilities and worshipers. This brought the number of Greyhawk deities to an even fifty. For the next eight years, Greyhawk would be primarily defined by the information in this publication.
