Today, Wizards of the Coast has announced a new Unearthed Arcana playtest featuring eight new Dungeons & Dragons subclasses that will appear in the upcoming Forgotten Realms Player’s Guide. The new subclasses include five classes tied to Forgotten Realms regions, as well as the return of the Knowledge Domain Cleric subclass from the 2014 Player’s Handbook and the Bladesinger Wizard subclass and Purple Dragon Knight Fighter subclass from the Sword Coast Adventurer’s Guide.
Each of the five remaining subclasses are themed to one of the five regions explored in the Forgotten Realms Adventure Guide also coming out in November. The College of the Moon Bard subclass is tied to the Moonshae Isles, the Winter Walker Ranger subclass is tied to Icewind Dale, and the Oath of the Noble Genies is tied to Calimshan. The Scion of The Three is tied to the Dead Three (of Baldur’s Gate fame). Meanwhile, Spellfire Sorcery dates back to 2nd Edition and can both heal allies and harm foes.
The eight new subclasses can be found below:
- College Of The Moon (Bard)
- Knowledge Domain (Cleric)
- Purple Dragon Knight (Fighter)
- Oath Of The Noble Genies (Paladin)
- Winter Walker (Ranger)
- Scion Of The Three (Rogue)
- Spellfire Sorcery (Sorcerer)

The Forgotten Realm’s Players Guide comes out on November 11th.
