While the rest of the world wonders what will become of the Alien franchise now that Disney owns 20th Century Fox and/or whether or not Ridley Scott really is working on a sequel to Covenant, we thought it would be nice to share some Alien news that can actually be confirmed!
Alien: The Roleplaying Game is now available for pre-order. Produced by Free League Publishing, the game isn’t expected to ship until later this year. Still, those who pre-order will have immediate access to “a meaty 168-page Cinematic Starter Kit PDF. It includes rules for skills, combat and panic, five pre-generated player characters, and the full-length Cinematic scenario Chariot of the Gods written by Alien RPG setting writer and sci-fi novelist Andrew E.C. Gaska.”
Those who pre-order will also have a chance to offer feedback before the game goes out for final print/publication. Check out some images and additional details below.
