The Starfinder Player Core is the definitive entry point for Starfinder Second Edition, with everything a player needs to learn how to play the game! Choose from 10 ancestries, six character classes, and hundreds of feats and spells to create unique characters ready to take on a ruthless galaxy awash with magic and opportunity. Starfinder Player Core brings the Starfinder RPG into its new edition and is now 100% compatible with the acclaimed Second Edition of the hit Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Along with GM Core and Alien Core, these books provide a new foundation for the future of tabletop gaming!
The pocket edition presents the same contents as the standard edition in a smaller sized softcover for a lower price and better portability.
Starfinder Player Core includes:
Complete character creation rules, walking you through building a character by selecting your Ancestry, Background, and Class, with a focus on the envoy, mystic, operative, solarian, soldier, and witchwarper classes!
Core ancestry options include android, barathu, human, kasatha, lashunta, pahtra, shirren, skittermander, vesk, and ysoki!
A vast catalogue of options allowing you to customize your character including versatile heritages, like the undead borai and Drift-touched prismeni, skills and feats, and hundreds of spells, ensuring that the character you build represents your hero not just in story, but in rules as well!
A primer on the Pact Worlds and wider galaxy, so your character can be a part of an exciting and diverse setting!
Rules and tools to advance your character through play, taking them from a fresh-faced adventurer ready to take on the world to a veteran hero, wielding powerful magic that can reshape reality.

The Starfinder Player Core Special Edition is also available as:
Are the rules for second edition availble online also or just in the books? Is there any character creator tool?
They'll be available online when the books come out. Right now, the SF2E rules won't be officially out until July 31st (even with Galaxy Guide already being out, they likely won't lauch the Archives of Nethys site until at least Player Core is out).
Are the rules for second edition availble online also or just in the books? Is there any character creator tool?
As Ezekieru said above, the rules will be available online when the Player Core is out this summer! Though we don't run Archives of Nethys, we presume they'll get their stuff up around then too. As for character creation, our partner Demiplane will have tools available in the Starfinder Nexus as well around that time!
There is quite a lot of helpful content at AoN :) But sadly, both of my classes -- Mechanic & Technomancer -- are still "in limbo" :( Is there any further news on their progress?

We don't work directly with them, so we don't know! But, hopefully someone who works there will see your post! I've seen a few across the forums!

Nethys doesn't usually cover playtest material until it releases officially and the book with Mechanic & Technomancer in it will not come out until sometime next year.

This is also very much the case, both about Archives of Nethys and about the mechanic and technomancer appearing in a later book!
