When does the new Paizo 2015-2016 Catalog release?


Paizo General Discussion


Apologies if its common knowledge when the catalog comes out, but I haven't seen or heard of when the new one is being posted.

Thank you,

I haven't either, but around GenCon time is the usual time. I don't know whether the fact that GenCon is being held slightly early has any effect -- but I am hoping that it moves that release earlier, since all releases this time of year do seem to be event rather than date driven.

If I remember correctly I believe last years was out before Gencon 2014. I think it came out right around paizocon 2014. was hoping 2015-2016 would be out, but guess well wait till after gencon. thanks

Last year the PDF catalogue was available at the end of august (3rd or 4th week). In 2013 it was already available in july but all years before in august.

I don´t know when the printed issues are available but you should be able to download the new one somewhen in the next 3 weeks.

If i should make an educated guess i would say between august 10th (beginn of suscriber shipping) and august 17th.
At latest it will be available on the 26th of august (street date of the august products).

I looked and the actual one for 2014-2015 was online on 30th of august 2014.

The 2013-2014 was already available in july but that was the only exception.

The 2012-2013 catalogue was online on 30th of august too and all others before were in august.

So i expect the actual one to be out on 31th of august - the latest one yet.

We're changing the way we do catalogs this year, and will be producing them twice annually instead of just once. We created a new print catalog for Gen Con, and have been distributing it at trade shows and conventions ever since.

I was actually unaware that the new catalog was not online in PDF format until I read this thread just now. I'll get it on the agenda when I get back to the office on Tuesday.

The catalog goes through the end of 2015. I start working on the one that will cover the first half of 2016 in a few weeks.

I think it is a very good decision to bring out 2 catalogues a year.

Is it possible to buy printed ones or to include them in suscriber shipments?

Thank you for the info Eric, i´ll keep my eyes up for it in early september then. :-)

The goal is always to include them in shipments. Doesn't always happen for various boring reasons, but it's always the plan.

Thank you Chris & Eric.

Eric any idea time frame wise when the 2016 catalogue would publish? I would assume before the end of the year?
