When Wizards of the Coast want to test new character options, they create playtest material called Unearthed Arcana. Often these playtests end up in future releases.
D&D 2024 has already received considerable Unearthed Arcana support with dozens of new subclasses, a couple of new classes and more.
We’ve been covering all of these with deep dive analyses. If you want to check out our analyses or the actual playtest material, you can find all of that below.
