Latest Updates from Our Project:

DC20 March 2026 Update: Spells, Monsters, and Adventures!
12 days ago – Mon, Mar 02, 2026 at 12:03:47 PM

0.10.5 Spell Feedback

The 0.10.5 Spells are currently being finalized, and we have listened to your feedback about them! The main feedback we’ve gotten is that people don’t want us to condense them too much and that they really liked the "Level 1" versions of Spells and don’t want us to get rid of that. We were never planning on doing too much on this, but we took another look at all the spells and I think everyone is gonna like where we’ve landed!

Monsters!

Next month we’re going to have a BIG PDF release of monsters for DC20. We are updating the Monster Starter Pack + the Monster Collection PDF. HUGE resource on how to make your own monsters from scratch or adjust ones already made, along with more monsters from levels 1 -6 as well! This will be the FIRST release of the PDF and there will be more updates in the future that add in the rest of the monsters from all the Kickstarter Stretch Goals.

Before the Monster Collection PDF, though, we’re releasing an update to the Monster Starter Pack! It has been completely overhauled and fits in line with DC20’s current balance standards. We’re just putting the finishing touches on it and are gonna have that out to you soon!

New Adventure 

There is also an adventure in its final stages of publishing that will be released FOR FREE to ALL Kickstarter Backers... but that is all I can say on that right now. I have appreciated everyone's patience in the longer development cycles of DC20 and I wanted to say thank you by giving away an ENTIRE "3 Shot" adventure, fully published with art away to KS backers for FREE as a THANK YOU for sticking around for so long and being a part of this. I will talk more about it in future updates as the Adventure gets closer to release!

DC20 Feb 2026 Update: Level Increase for 0.10.5
about 1 month ago – Fri, Jan 30, 2026 at 09:31:46 AM

Character Progression Update

Class Progression Table for all classes have changed and with that change (see table below) the level cap for DC20 will increase to LEVEL 6 now in the 0.10.5 Update! That's 50% MORE LEVELS! 

You can see the table here and also there is a link to the livestream timestamp that jumps straight to me explaining the change

https://youtu.be/erSKGos0Gec?t=500
The Character Progression update is from 8:20 to 13:02.

0.10.5 New Spells + Spell Update

Along with adding new Spells (especially Summoning Spells), we’re also going to be streamlining and updating some of the 0.10 Spells too. 

TLDR: Some spells will have their mana cost increased to be more iconic and easier to use and understand. We didn't want to go "too far" in customizing spells and some concerns are also the AMOUNT of spells that level 1 characters have to choose from (over 100) during character creation. Don't worry, this wont happen to a LOT of spells, but some spells like Disintegrate should not be available at too low of a level, so we are boosting some of them.

I talk about Spells in the livestreams, and you can find that here: https://youtu.be/jzx5fdcK3Xs?t=276
The Spells update is from 4:36 to 11:15.

Estimated 0.10.5 Release: March/ April

DC20 Jan 2026 Update: A Look into the New Year
2 months ago – Thu, Jan 01, 2026 at 06:02:29 PM

I just sent out an update a few days ago announcing the release of the DC20 0.10 PDF but wanted to stay consistent and not miss a 1st of the month update. So... HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Here is a look into the future of what the next updates will hold:

0.10.5

  • More Spells (especially Summoning, Divination, and Enchantment)
  • Level 5 Update for all Classes

0.11

  • We’re calling this "The Great Rewordening".
    • We’re gonna be looking at the Core Rules as a whole and figure out what we want the structure of it to be. This will include reorganization of the information, rewording and cleaning up language to be consistent and easily understandable
  • Pass over the Ancestries to fully update them and include the updated versions of the 4 Kickstarter Stretch Goal Ancestries (Gremlin, Shadowborn, Terraborn, and Goblin).

0.12 & Beyond

  • Increasing the level cap up to max level
  • Social System
  • Exploration System (downtime)
  • Challenge System
  • and more!

More Content Coming

Now that 0.10 is out and released, myself and the team can focus on some of the other PDFs that we want to get in your hands as well. There will be an update to the Monster Starter Pack, and we’ll start to roll out the Monster Collection, One-Shot Collection, Magic Item Collection soon (with updates to them as we update and finish the game).

We also have another big project we’re working on to give to ALL Kickstarter backers, but I’ll talk about that in the next update!

New Spell List Tool for 0.10

Another update, another spreadsheet. Here is my Spell List Tool. This lets you both search for Spells based on certain criteria, look at default Class Spell Lists, but also Build your own custom Spell List:

DC20 Beta 0.10 RELEASE
3 months ago – Tue, Dec 23, 2025 at 07:31:50 PM

Happy Holidays from DC20!

HUGE UPDATE! This update is the biggest quality of life improvement / UPGRADE to DC20 YET! Level 1-4 is now truly COMPLETE with the new Spellcaster SPELLS update and the Martial MANEUVER update all in this 0.10 PDF! Here is all the details!

Here is the YouTube video of the 0.10 Changelog Overview:

How to get the 0.10 PDF NOW

Kickstarter Backers: Check your DriveThruRPG account. The PDF should be there in the DC20 Section, check there first because it MIGHT say 0.8 or 0.9 still, but if you click on the PDF it will say 0.10. If you already got the update from 0.8 -> 0.9, then this (and all future updates) will work the same way!

Purchased on Website: You will either have an email already from the DC20.com Shopify, or go to the site itself and log in to check it manually.

Not Yet Purchased: If you do not yet have DC20, then you can pick it up on the official website here: https://thedungeoncoach.com/products/dc20-core-rules

Anyone who has the DC20 Core Rules (either Kickstarter or Website purchase) will get all updates to DC20 Core Rules for FREE until the games FINAL release!

If nothing is working then you can reach out to "[email protected]" and we will verify everything and get you taken care of. 

0.10 Changelog

Here is an Overview of the changes in text form, but you can also watch the video above.

  • Full Spell System Update + 126 NEW Spells added to the game
  • Rework / Merging of Maneuvers and Techniques together
  • Stamina Point and Mana Point Resource adjustments / tuning
  • Class / Talent balance updates based on Resource Update
  • Martial Weapon Style System Rework
  • Addition of a Spell Focus System for Spellcasters (mirroring what Martials have with Weapon Properties)
  •  Multiple Check Penalty Rework to better account for all types of "Attacks"

Full 0.10 Changelog Here

DC20 Future Updates

  • 0.10 will not be available on Foundry until they finish the update on their end. They have been AMAZING at keeping up with all the changes and I will make an update once they are up to date as well.
  • 0.10.5 will be another smaller update coming to add in the rest of the spells (like Summoning Spells) that did not make it into the 0.10 Update. This will also be the Update that adds the Level 5 Class Features which will expand the games max level to 5.
  • Stay tuned for the monthly updates, weekly public livestreams, and weekly Patron livestreams, AND I've even been making some more YouTube videos on all the BIG stuff happening!

 
 

DC20 - Dec 25 Update: Timeline Update + ALL Purple Spells
3 months ago – Mon, Dec 01, 2025 at 10:46:20 AM

DC20 Timeline / Release Update

I have seen confusion on the release date of DC20, I made an update a few months back on the updated estimate of the full game release, but I wanted to make a video to post so poeple could be 100% up to date.

Estimated 0.10 Release: Christmas 2025
Estimated 0.10.5 Release: Jan / Feb 2026
Estimated Full Release: Late 2026

  • 0.10.5 will be a quick Follow-up Update for additional spells than the regular 0.10 Update will have.

Updated Timeline Announcement Video:

Huge Spells Update

This is the most amount of Spell progress we’ve made so far, as ALL Spells are out of the outlining and brainstorming phase and are in the final stages of writing and mechanics being made!

This last "Green" step is actually the fastest because we have already written them all out, so all that is left is for me to go through them 1 by 1 to finalize them! We’re so close to that 0.10 Finish Line!

Other PDF Updates

Also in the works and will start to roll after 0.10:

  • Monster Starter Pack
  • The Hunted Update
  • Monster Collection PDF
  • One Shot Collection PDF
  • 3 Shot Adventure PDF

There will be "Beta" versions released for these after 0.10. The priority has been .10 for a while now and I wanted to TRY to get it out before Christmas, so once that happens we can start to get out a lot of these other PDFs as well!

Happy Holidays
