The new rulebook, which contains major revisions to the current 5th Edition ruleset for Dungeons & Dragons, is now live for "Master Tier" subscribers of the online character builder and rules compendium website, provided they pre-ordered the book. "Hero Tier" subscribers will gain access to the new Player's Handbook next week (again, provided they pre-ordered it), while the full book will be available to all subscribers starting on September 17th.The integration of the 2024 Player's Handbook was not without hiccups, with the service initially opting to switchover the rules text for magic spells, magic items, and mundane items before reversing course after a significant uproar among some users. While D&D Beyond was supposed to be down for a four hour maintenance window this morning, assumably to "go live" with the 2024 Player's Handbook, it took an additional two hours to finish the maintenance period.NOTE: As of 2:52 PM ET, the full suite of character building options for the 2024 Player's Handbook were not available on D&D Beyond. Users can create a Cleric, Rogue, Wizard, or Fighter character using the 2024 Basic Rules set, but all other new material is not available.</blockquote>
