Paizo posted its 2026 Product Catalog to the official Paizo Store yesterday, giving players and GMs a consolidated look at the company's full release slate for Pathfinder, Starfinder, and its other product lines. The catalog is available as a compact printed booklet and as a downloadable PDF.

The catalog launch coincides with broader changes to how the Paizo Store operates. Free products are no longer housed in your Library or surfaced directly through the store. Instead, Paizo has moved free downloads to the same pages as their associated products: Player's Guides and official PFS and SFS sanctioning documents, for example, now live on the Adventure Path pages they belong to rather than appearing as standalone library entries.

Third-party products from other publishers have also been affected. Those titles are not currently visible on the website, though Paizo confirmed that previously purchased items remain accessible through your Library or legacy digital content. Paizo said it plans to update and re-add portions of the existing catalog for new purchases as soon as possible, prioritizing partner products that carry the Paizo Compatibility logo.

The new store also introduces a streamlined preorder system. Preorders open once a product arrives at Paizo's warehouse, which typically happens roughly six weeks before the street date. Non-subscribers pay at the time of purchase, and their orders ship after subscriber orders have gone out. The Pathfinder Lost Omens Draconic Codex is one product currently showing the preorder option, listed at $64.99 on its product page alongside its release date and available editions.

Alongside the catalog, Paizo announced it is ending its long-running line of monthly Pathfinder Adventure Path softcovers in favor of quarterly hardcover releases. The new hardcovers will be a minimum of 256 pages with a retail price of $79.99, which Paizo described as cheaper than the cost of purchasing four individual softcover Adventure Paths. Each book will cover 9-10 levels of play, with one Adventure Path per year starting at Level 1, one ending at Level 20, and the remaining two covering ranges in between. The first two titles announced under this format are Hellbreakers and Hell's Destiny, both set against the backdrop of the coming war between Andoran and Cheliax.

The new store also introduced two separate login portals for the Paizo experience, though details on how those portals divide account functions have not yet been fully outlined by Paizo.

For longtime subscribers, the Adventure Path subscription currently runs $29.99 per issue at regular price, with a physical copy and a free PDF bundled together. The PDF retails separately for $19.99. One subscriber on the Enworld forums who has held the subscription since issue 49 shared a current billing breakdown of $20.99 for the discounted magazine, $1.47 in sales tax, and $4.78 for shipping, totaling $27.24 per issue. That figure reflects a 30% legacy discount that subscriber noted may not apply to new sign-ups.

The quarterly hardcover format marks a significant structural shift for one of Pathfinder's most established product lines, and the full scope of the 2026 slate is now laid out for anyone who picks up the catalog.
