With the Pathfinder Special Edition Rulebooks subscription, we'll ship you a deluxe edition of each new volume of the Pathfinder Rulebook product line. Each special edition is bound in faux leather with metallic deboss cover elements and a bound-in ribbon bookmark.

The Pathfinder Rulebooks subscription line of products gives you the tools you need to enhance your own campaign, creating more ways to customize characters, encounter new monsters, and introduce new themes to your world. Paizo releases an average of three new Pathfinder Rulebooks annually, like Secrets of Magic, Guns & Gears, Book of the Dead, and Dark Archive.

With your ongoing Pathfinder Rulebooks Special Edition subscription, we'll send you each new installment and charge your payment method automatically as we ship each product. You only need to sign up once, and never need to worry about renewal notices or missed products. You can cancel your subscription at any time.

Aside from being up to date on the latest rules, mechanics, and options, as a Pathfinder Rulebooks Special Edition subscriber, you'll also receive:

  • A free PDF copy of each release shipped as part of your Pathfinder Rulebooks Special Edition subscription
  • Your free PDF unlocks discounts through Paizo Connect at participating Paizo licensed partners, such as Demiplane, Hero Lab, Fantasy Grounds, and Roll20.
  • The Pathfinder Rulebooks product line is one of the subscriptions which can help you qualify for the Paizo Advantage, a 15% discount on tens of thousands of gaming items from Paizo.com! More details about Paizo Advantage can be found here.

By starting a Pathfinder Rulebooks subscription, each release will be automatically bundled with any other Paizo subscription items you're subscribed to that are releasing in the same month. When you start a new subscription, any existing preorders for products covered by that subscription are automatically canceled (or have their quantity reduced by one if you've preordered more than one of an item). If you have more questions about subscriptions, check the Paizo Subscriptions FAQ for more details.

Ok so just saw this! First let me say AWESOME! been hoping for something like this. However this does bring up some questions.

One, if you already bought the Pathfinder Core Rulebook & Bestiary special edition do we get free pdfs of those if we sub? I was waiting to sub to the RPG line after the Gamemaster Guide as I really wanted the PDFS but also wanted the special editions so figured I would top there.. now I dont have too.

Two If I have the Special Edition Gamemastery guide already orderd and in my side cart will the system know to remove it and replace it with this one assuming I start with that product?

I own the special editions of both the Core Rulebook & Bestiary. While it would be nice to get free PDFs of both of those books, it's probably unlikely to happen.


I'm assuming the Core Rulebook and Bestiary in this line are still First-Printings w/o any of the Errata?

Yep; they’re first printings. Paizo has previously stated that they have no plans to ever reprint the special editions so if you want them it’s always going to be errata-free first printing of each respective book.

Dark Archive

And although my SE books are errata-free, they are *gorgeous*! :)

Same question, or maybe some kind of store credit? I bought the PDFs separately last August after pre-ordering/ordering all three deluxe books in July. This would've saved a few bucks.

When will starting with B2 be an option? While my GMGs haven't shipped (stuck in one of the broken order queues), I haven't wanted to add the new subscription and risk complicating that order more.

Looks like starting with B2 showed up this past week. While its been error-ing out when trying to check out with it, it went through on the fifth attempt.


Stupid question incoming: Does paying for this subscription means you will get all the already released books?

Silver Crusade

No.

Probably sometime late February/early March (it should become available after February subscription auth is completed)

SOM is in the regular subscription queue now. Is it not getting a special edition? I was sure that it was. If it is, any reason it's not on here yet?

Additionally, adding my 2 cents, it might be cool for the non-core deluxes to be another color but the same style, like the 2E blue hue.

Liberty's Edge

The PDF’s of collector edition are they just the same PDF as regular edition?

Will the new Remaster books be a part of this subscription?
