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!     New York, NY— August 22, 2022 –  New adventu

 I'm a long time fan of the GTA series and this looks like it will be another solid outing for the game. First off the characters models and environment look great. The setting looks like it might be a version of mirror image of Los Angles or some other other large California. As is usually the case with this style of game, I'm guessing the world we can explore here is even larger than in IV. Going on the narrative we have a lead character who is a lifelong criminal who tried to leave the leave his life of crime to settle down and become a straight laced family man who kept his nose clean. As with others in these tough times the job I guess doesn't work out and he has to go back to a life of crime to make ends meet.

Since I've heard rumors of character customization among other things, I don't know if this is the only lead character or if this is narrator is a character at all or a creative way to introduce us to the GTA V world. Time will tell. Either way, I like my first peek into the game. In my eyes this game series has consistently "gotten it right" so I wasn't worried about this next in the game, just excited.
