If you’d like them in print you can score one of three versions of the rules with a softcover for $29.99, hardcover for $44.99, and deluxe edition (bound in faux leather with metal deboss cover elements and a stitched cloth bookmark) for $59.99. Doomsday Dawn and the flip mats each will carry an MSRP of $24.99. The three playtest releases will be printed to order based on preorders placed by May 1, and will never be reprinted. Keep in mind though, no one is forcing you to make a purchase as these will cost you nothing for the digital versions.
From Paizo:
Digital editions of all three Pathfinder playtest products will be available for free at paizo.com starting August 2. A limited number of print editions will be available at game stores and bookstores all over the world, as well as at Paizo’s booth at Gen Con in Indianapolis, Indiana, August 2–5. Players can preorder print editions of all three playtest products from local game stores now, or directly from paizo.com between March 20 and May 1. Paizo will not reprint the playtest rulebook or adventure, so players must preorder to assure they do not miss these items.
Paizo launched the roleplaying game industry’s first large-scale public playtest in 2008 to create the first edition of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Tens of thousands of gamers collaborated to improve its original concepts. “As Pathfinder has developed over the last ten years, we’ve continued to think about how to make the rules more fun, easier to learn, and better for telling our favorite fantasy stories,” said Erik Mona, Paizo’s Publisher and Chief Creative Officer. “It’s time to take another step forward in the evolution of the game.”
This massive 400-page rulebook contains everything you need to create characters and run Pathfinder Playtest adventures from levels 1–20! With gorgeous new illustrations by Wayne Reynolds, the Playtest Rulebook lights the path leading directly to Pathfinder’s future. Available in three editions: softcover, hardcover, and deluxe hardcover with foil-debossed faux-leather cover and ribbon bookmark.
