INTO THE ODD REMASTERED
Release Date: October 4

You are a curious explorer that long for the strange, peculiar and marvelous. You are braving places too far for maps and too old for records. Your expeditions touch the bizarre, wondrous, and horrific. You search for riches, but also Arcana, mysterious devices with unnatural powers.

Get ready for the nano-infested RPG CY_BORG, where cybernetic misfits and punks are raging against a relentless corporate hell. Rules-light, rage-heavy. A fever-dream of tech, punk and fury. This is the cyberpunk spinoff game CY_BORG, based on and compatible with multi-award-winning apocalyptic heavy metal RPG MÖRK BORG, by Stockholm Kartell.

CY_BORG is about rage against climate collapse, out-of-control consumerism, the commodification of personal data, late-stage capitalism, transhumanism and senseless violence. Stay jacked in. Stay synced. Stay updated.

BLADE RUNNER RPG .
Release Date: Q4
*
Walk the mean streets of Los Angeles in a new game from the award-winning team behind the hit ALIEN RPG. This is the BLADE RUNNER ROLEPLAYING GAME – a neon-noir wonderland that’ll take your breath away. One way or another.
*
Set in the year 2037, the game begins the adventure shortly after the Wallace Corporation debuts the new Nexus-9 Replicants on Earth, giving players the choice to play as either human or Replicants. The game will propel players into the streets of Los Angeles as Blade Runners with unique specialties, personalities – and memories.
*
As a member of the LAPD’s Rep-Detect Unit, you’ll face impossible choices and find beauty and humanity in the stubborn resilience to keep fighting. To persevere through pain. To do questionable and extraordinary things.
*
Other than that, it’s just a normal day on the force, so get to work and grab some noodles on the way. That stack of cases won’t crack itself. It’s a shame you won’t live long enough to solve them all. But then again, who does?

ALIEN RPG: HEART OF DARKNESS
Release Date: Q4
*
The company found a new lifeform, and they want you to study it. Their offer’s uncharacteristically generous—you catalog this organism, determine how they can use it, and bring it back so they can slap their patent on it. Fairly routine stuff. Did I mention the money? There’s a lot of it. Simple survey, sample, and analysis job. Seemed too good to be true.
Of course it is.
*
Heart of Darkness is an upcoming new cinematic scenario for the multiple award-winning ALIEN The Roleplaying Game. The expansion offers a stand-alone adventure, but also serves as a conclusion to the Draconis Strain Saga begun in the cinematic scenario Chariot of the Gods and continued in Destroyer of Worlds, all written by Andrew E.C Gaska. The expansion is designed for 3–5 players plus the Game Mother and is a spiraling descent into soul-crushing madness.
*
VAESEN: SEASONS OF MYSTERY
Release Dates: Q4
*
Vaesen: Seasons of Mystery presents new spine-tingling Mysteries spanning for all seasons: Dance of Death, Fireheart, The Devil on the Moor and A Winter’s Tale.
