Imprint publisher Clarkson Potter, a subsidiary of Penguin Random House, announced they have two new Dungeons & Dragons workbooks coming out this May. To be clear, these are not campaign books or sourcebooks; they are workbooks designed to help new players when joining the game, while also offering enhancements for experienced players to enrich the game. The first one is the Player’s Workbook of Epic Adventures, which is designed to help first-time players navigate a game from setup to first sessions. The second is Dungeon Master’s Workbook of Worldbuilding, which focuses on helping first-time or low-experienced Dungeon Masters plan and run their own games. We have more details on both here as they will be released on May 5, 2026, for $26 each.
