WoTC is digging into the new Monster Manual in a live stream that’s going on now. Check out what’s in the new sourcebook!

The new 5.5E Monster Manual has the most monsters, many with all-new art, and will be ready to level up your campaign’s opposition. It’s due out next month. This book is as full as a Monster Manual has ever been. With updated artwork, updated monster rules, and more, WoTC is about to let us know more of what we can expect from the book in a live stream.

Monster Manual Overview – Live Stream

WotC has been teasing bits and pieces of the new Monster Manual for a few months, including some previews hidden in free adventures. This week, two live streams covering the book’s contents will be held: today’s overview and a deep dive into dragons on Thursday.

In this new and improved 2024 Monster Manual, meet a monstrous menagerie of creatures for fifth edition! Encounter iconic D&D favorites and a whole host of mighty new monsters. Let their stories, illustrations, and streamlined stat blocks fuel your epic adventures. 

Populate your worlds and adventures with the monsters provided, and let their stories, illustrations, and easy-to-use stat blocks fuel your D&D adventures for years to come.

The stream kicks off at 11 am central time – in about five minutes.



Later this week, we’ll have detailed breakdowns of all the new stats and how they compare to the monsters of the last edition.

The new Monster Manual is currently up for pre-order on D&D Beyond. If you snag the digital version ahead of release, you get twelve frames, five backdrops, and four sets of digital dice for your character sheet on top of the new manual. The Digital edition is only $10 when you choose Digital + Physical.
