Earlier today I received an promo email from Wizards of the Coast’s PR Team. The hype machine for the 2024 rules update has been going pretty steady now for a while, so not much of this will be new for anyone who has been following along.
If you aren’t sure if the 2024 rules are for you, you can check out the full rules and everything you need to create new players in the free version of the rules on D&D Beyond. You can create a Cleric, Fighter, Rogue, or Wizard, each has one of the four subclasses found in the PHB in the free rules.
The new and improved 2024 Player’s Handbook is the ultimate guide for fifth edition D&D players. Fans will be able to play their way with optimized rules for character creation and advancement, exploration, combat, equipment, spells, and so much more. Additionally, they can create fantastic heroes from an expanded selection of character origins, class features, and subclasses, revised and balanced for endless fun.
