Here is a list of the currently updated documents for D&D Adventurers League, as well as a list of important links. This list will be updated periodically - you can check back here, look for posts on D&D Beyond, or visit the Official D&D Discord - Adventurers League channels to keep up with the latest news.
Adventurers League Player's Guide If you're a player, this is really all you need to get started! Contains character creation rules, as well as rules for playing in the Forgotten Realms, Eberron, Dragonlance, Ravenloft, Planescape, and Critical Role campaigns! Version 2026.2. Effective November 25, 2025.
Adventurers League Dungeon Master's Guide If you're going to Dungeon Master games, this one's for you. Tips & tricks on running Adventurers League games and rules for awarding magic items, etc. await! Version 2026.2. Effective November 25, 2025.
Adventurers League Adaptation Guide For Dungeon Masters looking to run any official D&D release, from Tyranny of Dragons through the most recent adventures - this contains guidance on how to ensure that your games are compatible with Adventurers League! Version 2026.2. Effective November 25, 2025.

Adventurers League Service Awards Get rewards for your Adventurers League characters when you Dungeon Master or help out the Adventurers League community! Effective February 7 through May 31, 2024.
Adventurers League Dungeoncraft Creator Pack Everything you need to create your own adventures for D&D Adventurers League for publication on the DMsGuild is included here! Effective December 4, 2023.
Regarding the Player's Guide, the text here, and the text of the document, are version 2026.2, but the actual filename is 2026.3. I assume the latter is a typo.
Should this post now be our go-to link for pointing people in the direction of people wanting information about AL?
I used to send people here, because it contained some great additional info, but that’s not been updated with new guides in some time.
Edit: I guess this link might be the best one. Recent blog posts have the link to this post. Not sure if the original March 5th, 2024 post could be edited to contain the link here also?
The link to the Player's Guide has been fixed! For some additional context, Ma'at added the docs to Discord, then we released Eberron, and they edited them for Eberron before I uploaded them here, so this one was having a bit of trouble. The Player's Guide docs here and in the Discord now match.

Why aren't the Service Awards and Dungeoncraft updated?
I too would like to know about this. There's a Dungeoncraft creator guidelines "v1.9b" on Scribd with changes that look as clean as anything in the previous versions and have several useful additions (broader reward options, support for short and low-level adventures). But how can it be legal if I can't find it mentioned on Wizards, D&D Beyond, or Dungeon Masters Guild?
It is on the official discord server, where the AL admins publish them directly. Honestly the best place to stay updated these days are at adventurersleague.info, thanks to Matt H who does some great work staying in tune with what is going on.
any ETA for Eberron rules to be updated on the official PDF? it's been "TBA" for a while now, I was hoping for a little more flexibility given the multiverse era, and this being reprinted and updated to 2024 rules

Page 9 of the Player guide is showing a bunch of dots instead of text. Not sure if it's my Mac or what. Anyone else having this happen?
Nope! Have all 10 pages on PC using edge.
I tried it on my PC and it worked just fine. It shows the dots on my iPhone as well, so something with the font and Apple I guess?
I like the new layout. Having charts is super helpful.
However, does "Mechanical Effect. Has permanent mechanical or ability score effects" mean that the Ability Score boost books are no longer legal?
(Edit: meaning things like the Manual of Bodily Health...)
I also have this happening on iOS, using Chrome. No issues with anything Ma'at posts to Discord.
Regarding the Player's Guide, the text here, and the text of the document, are version 2026.2, but the actual filename is 2026.3. I assume the latter is a typo.

No ETA, but there are some admin rulings on discord.
Awesome, thanks for sharing.
Thanks, that'll be great when it happens. Perhaps it's waiting for other documents to have current versions but it would be very much appreciated!
