The sheer volume of the 2024 rulebooks probably means all sorts of complications regular books don't encounter. And WotC likely wants to time the other books around those, presumably in a "here's the first adventure to run with your shiny new PHB" manner. So even if those are sitting in warehouses already, they can't announce anything until they know the timing of the big three sourcebooks.
I would expect us to have a good idea of when the PHB is coming out by February.

No, we have never known release dates fir any upcoming 5E books in January. Last January was the first time we evem knew what books were coming.
We did get leaked dates on Twitter in December, however.
Do we even know for sure that we're getting the new DMG and MM this year? I had thought that we were, but I see a fair amount of discussion suggesting maybe not?
Last year, we had the release date for Keys from the Golden Vault (Feb 21) in November 2022.

Candlekeep Mysteries was officially announced on January 12, 2021 and it was released on March 16, 2021.
But those were all for Q1 releases: the dates WotC posted and them took back suggest the new products aren't starting this year until Q2, however.

no, we do not know for sure. We know the PHB is coming for sure, the other two are still up in the air as far as I know

Here ia the leaked set of dates that we got, them WotC took back very quickly. I would expect something like this, with the PHB in May and the MM and DMG towards the end of the year:
"On Friday, WotC shared a bunch of images of 2024's D&D releases, which included release dates for each book."
- 2024 Core Rulebooks (May 21st)
- Vecna: Eve of Ruin (May 21st)
- Quests from the Infinite Staircase (July 16th)
- Making of D&D (June 18th)

Well, they seem to be wrapping up the PHB with the last UA test: I have no doubt that the DMG and MM will come this year, bit the PHB is no doubt the first one that will be sent to the printers.

Have they ever not shipped all the corebooks of for-the-sake-of-this-discussion a new edition in a single year?
