Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances there has been a delay in the printing of the alternate cover for the 2024 Player’s Handbook. This has resulted in a delay to its release in regions outside North America.
The expected release date by region for the alternate cover is now as follows:
- North America (no change): September 3 (Local Game Store Early Access) / September 17
- UK and Europe: October 18
- Australia: October 24
- New Zealand: October 31
While these are anticipated in-store release dates for the alternate cover, stores can sell this product as soon as they receive it, starting September 17.
The digital and regular cover release of the 2024 Player’s Handbook will not be impacted by this delay and will proceed as scheduled in all regions.
We are sorry for the delay in the release of the alternate cover of the 2024 Player’s Handbook and will get it to you as quickly as we are able.
