I think they have confirmed that all PHB stuff is in.
I do not remember where I read it so it would be nice if someone can find a source.

On top of that we have gith and drow already in.
I guess we get gnomes and dwarfs from the underdark too.
We have those in the game already and there is already a tag for player characters as gnomes, dwarves and underdark background.
So this would not cause additional animations and writing.

Anything more would be nice, but I do not expect this.

4. There have been hints of other 5e sources being implemented into the game. Are you going to include material from Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes, Xanathar's Guide to Everything, and/or other player materials outside of the core material of the 5e Player's Handbook? Additionally, at full release, will all content of the PHB be represented (notably, (sub)classes and (sub)races)?

HB/MM/DMG are the base we are starting from but we are taking material from other books too.

People often misstake it with this one:
Quote
Will all 5e Classes be available at launch?

> Yes, all classes from 5e Player’s Handbook will be included at launch. In Early Access you’ll be able to play as a Cleric, Fighter, Ranger, Rogue, Warlock or Wizard.

Does that include paths, subclasses, etc?

> Yep.

Would love to see Shadar-Kai as a player race (the Netherese variant for Faerun, not the elven ravenqueen ones)

I would like Aasimar for holy crusading.

Dhamphir would be... Very interesting as well, considering Astarion and his whole deal.

Agreed ... Aasimar would be great
(and kinda fair, since we allready have Devil-people it would be nice to also have Celestial-people)

At this point I am starting to get worried they might not even finish the PHB. As far as I know there isn't a hard confirmation that we'll get every PHB race, and the way they design their cut-scenes and facial expressions would make Dragonborn incredibly difficult unless they can get some actual talking lizards in mo-cap suits.

It'd be a massive blow to me personally. Dragonborn are my favorite PHB race and the one I am looking forward to most.

But who knows? Maybe there will be race pack DLC after launch. I think that is our best bet to get the exotic races like Lizardfolk or Tabaxi. Personally Lizardfolk is my long shot hope as lizardfolk are my favorite playable DnD race in 5e.

Just for clarification, Drow PCs are in the PHB so Gith is the only race from other sources currently.
