Marvel Multiverse Table Top Role-Playing Game - Summer 2023

A new Marvel TTRPG is heading our way for Summer 2023. I have some really fond memories of the Marvel Superheroes Roleplaying game put out by TSR in the 1980's. It was right along side Dungeons & Dragons as one of my introductory games to ttrpgs. This new game looks to be based purely on a six-sided dice system. The playtest rulebook for the game is available now for anyone who wants to run an early version of the game through its paces before the finalized version comes out next year. I'll admit I'm curious enough make that purchase myself. Here is the official press release from Marvel: MARVEL LAUNCHING CORE RULEBOOK FOR NEW TABLETOP ROLE-PLAYING GAME IN SUMMER 2023 ‘MARVEL MULTIVERSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: CORE RULEBOOK’ AVAILABLE JUNE 2023 FOLLOWED BY ‘MARVEL MULTIVERSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: THE CATACLYSM OF KANG’ AVAILABLE JULY 2023 Use the D616 game system to embody your favorite Super Heroes and Super Villains!

Battle Chasers was one up there with one of my favorite series from the late 90s. Joe Madureira's artwork and character design had a lot to do with it. I've followed Joe's work both in comic book artwork and the design work he's done in the field of video games. It looks like his passion for both media are coming together with the return of Battle Chasers. The website just went online yesterday so the details of what's to come are thin. It looks like we can expect a new Battle Chasers comic or a continuation of the original series. A RPG game for PC and consoles is also in the works, there is a dev blog on the site that gives some additional details on that with some initial character modelling and design sketch work.

I've known this was coming for a bit now, but its great to see an official site online now. I see it as just another step closer to getting the Battle Chasers back out there.
