Link below is a good summary of which races come from which books. Races usually cost $2 each if you want to unlock that race in the character creator without buying the entire book.
All books would be: - Player's Handbook - Dungeon Master's Guide - Xanathar's Guide to Everything - Tasha's Cauldron of Everything - Volo's Guide to Monsters (lagacy) - Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes (lagacy) - Monsters of the Multiverse - Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide - Fizban's Treasury of Dragons - Glory of the Giants - Eberron: Rising from the last War - Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft - Spelljammer - Planescape (only backgrounds and feats) - Strixhaven: A Curriculum of Chaos - Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica - Mystic Odysseys of Theros - Dragonlance: Shadow of the Dragon Queen

So i wrote down all the subclasses and theire book since you cannot get a clean list for that sadly. TL:DR you get nearly anything with: -Playerhandbook -Swordcoast Adeventurer Guid -Tashas Cauldron of Everything - Xanathars Guide to Everything Side note: Total cost? 480$ cost for majority? 120$ (29.99 x4) and for some reason some overlap, i guess since Swordcoast AG revamps things? also a good bit, like 10%, is in Tal'dorei reborn. and something you don't really see is Humblewood Campaign setting including subclass for bard,cleric x2,fighter.
SO HERE IS THE COMPLETE LIST IN DND BEYOND ORDER! Misspelling is creative writing reserved and a con... consciou... intended choice!
Warlock Archfey- PHb Celestial- Xana Fathomless- Tasha Fiend- PHb Genie- Tasha Great Old One- PHb Hexblade- Xana Undead- Van Richtens Undying- Swordcoast AG
How do I get a certain race without buying the book? You say you can do it but I have no clue how to. Thanks 😊
You can't. Individual purchases was removed as of April 30th.

Thanks. Shoot. Was just trying to make a Faerie Warlock with The Archfey patron and of course that is not available. This answers why. I already own a hard copy of the book so having to buy the digital is annoying. Bummer that they no longer have an à la carte option now.
If you every single creative race/subrace and subclass available for 5e, what are all the books one would need for that?
The only ones that are mentioned is in the new PHB. Adding anything besides those is just optional and the can and should say only these will be played.

Most race/subraces are available in Monsters of the Multiverse. Subclasses will be a lot harder to get gathered in one spot.
I know what you're thinking: "In that flurry of blows, did he use all his ki points, or save one?" Well, are ya feeling lucky, punk?
Xanathar and Tasha contain the largest numbers of subclasses. Most others contain only one or two subclasses.
From the books I have:
- Van Richten’s: Bard College of Spirits, Warlock Undead Patron
- Fizban: Drakewarden Ranger, Ascendent Dragon Monk
- Dragonlance: Lunar Sorcerer
- (Bigby: Path of the Giant Barbarian)
For additional species:
- Strixhaven: Owlin
- Van Richten’s: Dhampir, Hexblood, Reborn
- Spelljammer: Autognome, Astral Elf, Plasmoid, Thri-Kreen, Giff, Hadozee
- Dragonlance: Kender
- Fizban: Chromatic, Gem and Metallic Dragonborns

Call it "non-WotC-IP" then... however, DDB lists all Crit Role publications as "partnered content" in the "sources" tab.
I would reccomend getting Monsters of the multiverse for races and Tasha’s caudron for artificer and a lot of subclasses.
So i wrote down all the subclasses and theire book since you cannot get a clean list for that sadly.
TL:DR
you get nearly anything with:
-Playerhandbook
-Swordcoast Adeventurer Guid
-Tashas Cauldron of Everything
- Xanathars Guide to Everything
Side note:
Total cost? 480$
cost for majority? 120$ (29.99 x4)
and for some reason some overlap, i guess since Swordcoast AG revamps things?
also a good bit, like 10%, is in Tal'dorei reborn.
and something you don't really see is Humblewood Campaign setting including subclass for bard,cleric x2,fighter.

Can I just say thank you so much for the work you put in on this, working on a budget and just switched to side of DMing this was amazing help
all in a days work dear friend, sit down and rest a bit.
and don't be ashamed to just not buy certain things but to just copy paste it from the wiki
Most appreciated to all who have contributed to this massive list.
How do I get a certain race without buying the book? You say you can do it but I have no clue how to. Thanks 😊
You can't. Individual purchases was removed as of April 30th.

Nrm dont answer mine, I apparently can't delete my own question for some reason
