Further Shipping Delays in Asia Pacific Region for 2024-2025

We regret to announce that due to unforeseen shipping delays, the release of the 2024 Dungeon Master’s Guide (regular and alternate covers) and 2024 Dungeon Master’s Screen are delayed for the Asia Pacific (APAC) region. They are now expected in stores on the following dates:

  • Australia: December 7
  • New Zealand: December 24
  • South-East Asia: Late December 2024

The digital release of the 2024 Dungeon Master’s Guide will not be impacted by this delay.

Earlier this year, we saw similar delays in the release of the 2024 Player’s Handbook for this region. We recognize that the shipping challenges we've been experiencing are more systemic than we thought, and for that reason in 2025 we expect to have later release dates in the Asia Pacific region. To improve our communications in 2025, we will announce separate and later release dates for the region ahead of time. We expect this clarity on release dates to be less disruptive to our fans here moving forward.

Thank you,

The Wizards of the Coast team
