So, wanted to put that rumor, that concern, to bed.What is going to happen if I own all of the existing content from Volo's Guide to Monsters (VGtM) and Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes (MToF) and don't buy Monsters of the Multiverse (MotM)? 'Wizards of the Coast has asked us that they would like to take the lead on message around this book, we're allowing them that, but we did want to make sure that you all understood that your stuff is not gonna get replaced, you're not gonna lose anything when this book is released. 'We are currently working through with Wizard on the approach, you know, the nuts and bolts approach for making that work,' Starr said. Starr didn't specify exactly how it would implement the new statblocks and player races found in the book. This will absolutely not replace your previously purchased at D&D Beyond.' 'The big question that people have for us specifically around Monsters of the Multiverse is 'Will this replace my previously purchased content?,'' Starr said. However, this will not be the case with Monsters of the Multiverse, especially as some of the changes made in the book are considered unpopular with a segment of fans.ĭuring the platform's weekly Dev Update video, D&D Beyond head Joe Starr assured subscribers that it would not replace existing purchased content with content from Monsters of the Multiverse.

For instance, a D&D subscriber who purchased the Elemental Evil Player's Companion on D&D Beyond for the Goliath player race rules did not need to purchase Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden to gain access to the updates made to the Goliath player race in that adventure. With past updates to content, either via errata or updates in new books, D&D Beyond has updated the statblocks for all of its subscribers regardless as to whether they purchased the updated content or not. This week, the D&D digital platform D&D Beyond provided a brief update about its rollout of Monsters of the Multiverse. Many of the races and monsters in Monsters of the Multiverse contain revisions from their previous appearances, which has led to questions about how Wizards of the Coast and its partners will roll out the changes on various platforms and programs. Later this month, Wizards of the Coast will release Mordenkainen Presents: Monsters of the Multiverse, a new rulebook that collects over 30 player races and over 250 monsters from past books. D&D Beyond has provided an explanation to subscribers about how the upcoming Monsters of the Multiverse book will impact existing users.
