Dungeons and Dragons released a new Player's Handbook in late 2024, with the goal of introducing new players to the popular tabletop roleplaying game and adding ways for existing fans to enjoy the game. The updated version of the Dungeons and Dragonshandbook features 12 classes and 48 subclasses, with each class having exactly four subclasses. This is quite different from previous editions of the game, where the number of subclasses varied, and may make the release of future books and other supplementary materials complicated if publisher Wizards of the Coast wishes to keep the subclass numbers balanced.
