I bought this at my local game store and I love it. I am honestly surprised by it. The box it comes in, the card quality and colors, the little booklet that comes with it. It is all very nice and the quality of it shows. Almost everything in the booklet can be found online on AoN and I can find a way to write this into other adventures if I really want. I am honestly just surprised at the suggestions it gives on how to use it in homebrew adventures.
Yeah I backed the Guild Wars 2 artists collective tarot deck and it's one of my prized possessions. Still been looking for a suitable physical "Deck of Many Things" though. Even if the 2e one is pretty nerfed!
How will this differentiate from the previous PF1 version?
"With vivid all-new art," the description says :p
Still curious what that "all-new" encompasses.
It encompasses everything. The whole deck is done in an entirely different art style, with entirely different images. Some of them will be familiar poses and shapes, and some will only share themes with the original deck, much like how real-world tarot cards have different artists and art styles but still fundamentally show the same metaphors and symbols.
Exciting! I have the original deck and can't wait to see what this version looks like (not to mention get it in my hands)! I have yet to create a reading for players, but I use it all the time when I'm stuck about a character's motivations or direction.
I've not heard that there will be a Foundry VTT product specifically, but all our new card products are sold digitally, so they should be importable into any VTT.
Great to see a Hsrrow deck coming for PF2e. Is there any chance of a PF2e equivalent of the Harrower Handbook for PF2e? PF2e has never had a supplement of that size yet.
Other than the art is there any difference to the original set? I know I would personally love to have a harrow set in actual Tarrot card size, which are much bigger than playing card size.

We have not announced such a thing coming in the next 8 months, and would normally not talk about something farther out than that, no. The Harrow Handbook wa part of the Pathfinder Player Companion line, which has evolved into the Lost Omens setting hardcovers. You now know we are focused on Tian Xia. However, the Stolen Fate Adventure Path back-matter may hold relevant material.

In Starfinder, we have a digital Harrow deck available to us. It's got some interesting spell uses, but for the cost and level it's at, it's not something your character would own to just use for flavor and do manual fortune-telling readings for fun, it would be nice if Starfinder could at least get access to a common Harrow deck as well.
Any idea when this should be available for purchase on Amazon?
Amazon usually has item a month or two after they are available here. Everything is shipped to Paizo, then they provide product to their distributor, who then has to send it to Amazon.
Update: This Harrow Deck has been moved from May to June 2023. We are not making a PDF/JPG version. We are in discussions with licensed partners and will say more at PaizoCon.

Aww, the date switch stinks, but oh well. I'm willing to bet we will see some digital tools of the harrow deck.

That's the worst news I've heard about this deck since its announcement. I've been clamouring for a digital copy of the Harrow Cards since the 1st Edition Cards.
I just want an easy way to import Harrow Cards into roll20 without scanning 52 physical cards individually.

No simple digital version is indeed disappointing news. "Discussions with licensed partners" probably means that the cards will become available in some digital tools like VTTs, but this also sounds like they will not be accessible outside these tools. That is very sad.

I wonder if they are going to have a Harrow Deck mobile game put together by BKOM? Or just a Harrow Deck app?
Hope this version comes with rules of Tower card game x'D
It doesn't. This version focuses on the cards' use as a fortune-telling tool. You can still play Towers with this deck but you'll need to reference other places for those rules. Towers as an in-game element plays no role in Stolen Fate (as far as I can remember).
Il also echo the sentiment that having no digital equivalent to these cards outside of partners really stinks. My entire group is online and no matter if its integrated into VTT or not its going to be a pain to make a plain PDF book of these cards.
Alas I will wait patiently for the announcement. I could be pleasantly wrong if they find an unforeseen solution.

Chiming in with my disappointment of not having digital options direct from Paizo. I don't care for or need one exclusively available from a VTT vendor if that's the announcements they are expecting at PaizoCon.
Personally, I input my data into my VTT myself and without PDF/JPG options that means I have to break out the scanner...
Just throwing my voice in alongside the others wanting a straightforward (PDF + JPGs) digital version of this. I don't use physical accessories nor really have any use for digital versions of most cards that you release, but I would've been buying the digital of these on release day.
