Summary
Dungeons & DragonsFifth Edition Player’s Handbook launched back in 2014. It’s been about a decade of using the same Player’s Handbook, though it’s been revised. As they say, though, if it ain’t broke, there’s no need to fix it. That doesn’t mean you’re able to’t upgrade it after years of play.
That’s exactly what’s been done with the announcement of the Dungeons & Dragons 2024 Core Rulebooks. With new and returning options, rebalanced options, new rules for crafting, new spells, and everything else you can think of, it’s time to take Fifth Edition to the next level. Best of all, the preorders for the D&D 2024 Core Rulebooks are available right now.
Where To Pre-Order D&D 2024 Core Rulebooks
So, you’re sold and want to get into the content as fast as possible. Well, here’s your chance, as you can now pre-order all three books in the collection. You can preorder the Player’s Handbook (2024), Dungeon Master’s Guide (2024), and the Monster Manual (2024) individually or in a bundleright now on D&D Beyond.
The individual 2024 Player’s handbook starts at $29.99, with the physical Core Rulebook bundle sitting at $49.99. The digital Core Rulebook bundle will cost $29.99 and features each of the three books in the collection.
Create Characters With Ease
The largest Player’s Handbook D&D has ever had, the 2024 Player’s Handbook has been fully rebuilt, with tons of refinements to make everything easier. From character creation to brand new options, it’s time to finally move into the next version of Fifth Edition. Refinements to the Background options, for example, now give players a feat at first level from their Background choice. It means a lot more than it did previously, allowing you to really focus on a backstory but also giving you the Ability Score adjustments based on what you’ve chosen. Changes like these are meant to make those options that kind of get lost in the process of the campaign and help them make a continuous impact on your adventure.
Streamline Content For A More Enjoyable Experience
From a better weapon experience to more options for content outside of combat and literally everything else in between, there’s attention given to every part of D&D, providing new and exciting ways to play that are comfortable for those who have been playing for ten years and those just starting. All the content is more streamlined for both players and Dungeon Masters. Information has been reorganized to make accessing things during your sessions much easier. All content in these core rulebook sets is meant to replace the 2014 Player’s Handbook, however characters from both sets can still be played next to each other.
