As Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro continue to celebrate Dungeons & Dragons 50-year anniversary, their prosperity continues with the prosperity of the tabletop titan’s 2024 Player’s Handbook.

D&D continues to be, one of, if not the largest RPG experience at their impressive half-century mark. Within the latest handbook is a slew of expanded races, backstories, class features, and subclasses. Additional content includes optimized rules for character creation and progression, as well as combat mechanics, equipment, spell-casting, and more.

Wizards’ highest recorded book release was previously held by the 2014 Player’s Handbook. However, in anticipation of an even stronger launch with this year’s edition, the company opted to triple the first print of handbooks compared to the 2014 release — a wise move, as recent film launches, high-profile campaigns from key celebrities, and a total infiltration on popular culture in recent years led to way more people playing D&D now than in 2014. So far the initial sales have outperformed the previous edition’s three times over. This comes as no surprise, seeing as the fantasy franchise has tracked more than 85 million fans worldwide and reports 18 million registered D&D Beyond users to date.

Be sure to make room in your inventory for the Dungeons & Dragons 2024 Player’s Handbook or choose to purchase the physical and digital editions on D&D Beyond to unlock a variety of tools and services. You can even travel to select Barnes & Noble stores for an exclusive poster with purchase.
