Cubicle 7 has announced the 5th Edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, timed to coincide with the game’s 40th anniversary. The new edition is currently available for pre-order, which grants immediate access to the PDF, while the physical hardcovers are expected to ship in Spring 2027. This edition remains backwards compatible with the 4th edition, retaining the classic d100 system and the “grimdark” Old World setting while refining rules for combat, magic, and character careers. Steve Jackson Games and Lynnvander Studios are collaborating to adapt the classic, trope-filled Munchkin card game into a 5.5E-powered tabletop roleplaying game. This new system aims to transition the card game’s signature chaotic, loot-focused parody into a functional RPG experience with official rules support. Launching in October, the project will include the “Ye Olde Rulebook,” new subclasses, and unique “Pun-spiration” and “Cheeky Cheating” mechanics that encourage players to prioritize greed and backstabbing in their campaigns. A proposed settlement in the Diamond Comic Distributor bankruptcy case has faced a new obstacle due to an objection filed by Sparkle Pop, the company that currently holds the warehouse assets. While the settlement was intended to return consigned inventory to publishers like Green Ronin and Paizo, Sparkle Pop is disputing the deal, citing outstanding claims for warehouse rent and processing fees. This objection has stalled the resolution, leaving affected publishers waiting for the release of their long-held stock from the Mississippi warehouse. Bloat Zines is currently crowdfunding for “Skullcrusher,” a grimdark fantasy RPG inspired by 90s-era D&D sessions and the New School Revival movement. Created by Eric Bloat, the game emphasizes accessibility through streamlined mechanics and is being released under a Creative Commons license that invites others to create official content. The Kickstarter campaign is currently live, offering both digital and print options, and the team is prioritizing a timely delivery by avoiding stretch goals. #wfrp5e #munchkin5e #sparklepop #skullcrusher Warhammer Fantasy Roleply Fifth Edition: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/545405/warhammer-fantasy-roleplay-fifth-edition-rulebook?affiliate_id=2081746 Preorder a physical copy: https://cubicle7games.com/warhammer-fantasy-roleplay-fifth-edition Munchkin 5e lNading Page on Backerkit: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/lynnvander-studios/munchkin-5-5e-rpg Skullcrusher on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bloatzines/skullcrusher-dark-fantasy-roleplaying-game Caverns of Thracia & More by Goodman Games https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/vDvy03 Warmachine Lore Bundle: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/MKYoDJ The Dying Earth RPG Collection: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/m4krXe Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy’s Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us  a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

Mugen Gaming is producing the first official English translation of the 2.5 edition, with a Backerkit campaign scheduled to launch on October 20. This release seeks to bridge Eastern and Western fantasy gaming traditions by introducing the long-running franchise to a global audience. The interview with the original creator and current president of Group SNE sounds optimistic that this Japanese version of Dungeons and Dragons will resonate with current a whole new English-speaking audience. You can pre-order now for an exclusive enamel pin commerating the release.

Operation Fulcrum Dawn will compile the narrative modules Operation Solstice Rain and Operation Winter Scar, while the Lancer Setting Guide Vol. 1 will collect digital supplements including The Long Rim and The Karrakin Trade Baronies. These books represent a significant shift from digital-only PDF availability to physical print formats for the sci-fi mech RPG. Magic: The Gathering‘s upcoming Zeta Set, in collaboration with the artist collective MSCHF, challenging the industry practice of selling randomized booster packs at a $20 premium price point.   A documentary celebrating the 50-year history of the sci-fi RPG Traveller is currently crowdfunding on Kickstarer. Filmmaker “Tex” is collaborating with original creator Marc Miller to produce this project, which aims to chronicle the game’s evolution and community for a planned 2027 release. This seems like a fitting tribute for such an influential TTRPG. Why didn’t and other games receive this same treatment?

Dragon Kings by Strange Owl Games is created by original Dark Sun designers, including Timothy Brown and Brom, this project serves as a spiritual successor to the classic Dark Sun setting. It is designed to be system-agnostic while offering 5th Edition compatibility and 2E conversion rules. The crowdfunding campaign is set to begin on BackerKit on September 22, 2026, offering fans a fresh, desperate, and dangerous world that aims to capture the spirit of the original 1990s experience. Tuesday Knight Games has announced its third annual “Mothership Month,” scheduled for November 2026. Moving away from its traditional large-scale crowdfunding model, the event is pivoting to prioritize community support and creator relief. The company introduced three new initiatives: the Jump-9 Writers Grant to fund new talent, the “Warden’s Club” to reward storytellers for public games, and “Mothership Select,” an award program for exceptional third-party zines. This shift is intended to alleviate “crowdfunding fatigue” and focus on strengthening the existing creator ecosystem rather than overwhelming fans with new product launches. Dungeons & Dragons is also expanding with two new reveals. Dungeons & Dragons: Warlock, a AAA title from Invoke Studios set in the crumbling Ravenloft domain of Darkon, showcased its first gameplay footage featuring a look at the “Raw Magic” system. Additionally, the developers announced Dungeons & Dragons: Long Rest Tavern, a cozy simulation game where players manage a tavern for adventurers, crafting menus and upgrading their establishment while interacting with legendary heroes. Both titles are scheduled for release in 2027. Kenzer & Company is celebrating the 25th anniversary of HackMaster with a new, premium leather-bound edition. This “HackMaster XXV” release promises a comprehensive update to the classic RPG, featuring revamped mechanics, better-balanced abilities, new social engagement rules, and an expanded spell system, all while maintaining the game’s reputation for grit and tactical complexity. Beyond these feature updates, the document includes a variety of links to current TTRPG bundle offers and resources for fans to support the creators and platforms behind these publications.  #dragonkings #mothership #warlock #hackmasterrpg Dragon Kings Pre-launch on Backerkit: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/strange-owl-games/dragon-kings/pre-launch HackMaster 25th Anniversary Edition on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kenzerco/hackmaster-25th-anniversary-edition-a-fantasy-rpg Warmachine Lore Bundle: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/MKYoDJ The Dying Earth RPG Collection: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/m4krXe Batteltech PRG Bundle Encore: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/9VBLr4 Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy’s Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us  a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

The TTRPG industry has seen a notable shift in how crowdfunding campaigns reach the million-dollar milestone, moving away from simple book sales toward becoming “pop-up merchandising storefronts.” Campaigns like Deathbringer illustrate this strategy, where high-ticket add-ons such as custom dice, playmats, statuettes, and even denim jackets significantly boost the average pledge level. While these massive funding totals capture attention, experts note that profitability often relies on these high-margin items to offset the costs of advertising and production, while raising questions about the logistical challenges of fulfilling such complex pledges. A tribute to the late legendary artist John Blanche. Organized by Secret Passages, this initiative invites artists and writers to contribute to a standalone 40+ page zine that celebrates Blanche’s five-decade career. This collection of original essays, interviews, and artwork aims to capture the spirit of his influence on the gaming community and will be available alongside the upcoming Secret Passages Issue 4 in Autumn 2026. Magnagothica: Maleghast, a collaboration between Tom Bloom and Taiga Miniatures. This campaign focuses on bringing the heavy metal-inspired wargame to life with official 30mm miniatures. With a goal of US$6,666, the project has already seen significant success, raising over US$78,000 by late August 2026. The campaign offers a range of options, including physical resin models and STL files for at-home printing, targeting an early 2027 delivery for backers. MCDM Productions is promoting Crows: Fortune or Death, a new survival horror RPG that emphasizes high-stakes dungeon crawling and resource management. Built for challenging gameplay where players must survive on wits rather than stats, the game features mechanics like “Dungeon Turns” and robust inventory management via cards. The campaign also introduces a town-building aspect, where players invest loot to improve their home base, creating a lasting legacy for future adventurers while offering backers various tiers that include starter sets, rulebooks, and specialized equipment decks. #johnblanche #malegothicamaleghast #OSE2026 #crowsrpg https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/mugen-gaming/sword-world/pre-launch Batteltech PRG Bundle Encore: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/9VBLr4 Secret Passage Zine John Blanche Tribute Page: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jdhoare/secret-passages-4-an-old-school-rpg-and-oldhammer-magazine Magnagothica: Maleghast – STL & physical resin miniatures Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/taigaminiatures/magnagothica-maleghast-miniatures Crows: Fortune or Death: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/mcdm-productions/crows-fortune-or-death Playtest here: https://mcdm.gg/crowsplaytest Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy’s Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us  a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

After months of legal battles following Diamond Comic Distributors’ 2025 bankruptcy, a settlement has finally been reached, allowing publishers like Paizo to retrieve their sequestered inventory from a Mississippi warehouse. Meanwhile, the Tabletop Game Designers Association (TTGDA) is actively campaigning for more equitable industry standards, urging publishers, award curators, and retailers to accurately attribute game authorship to individual designers rather than exclusively crediting publishing entities.Crowdfunding Successes and Resurrections1 The TTRPG crowdfunding space continues to show robust growth, headlined by the record-breaking $16 million Neon Odyssey campaign from Legends of Avantris. This project leveraged nostalgia and a desire for premium, immersive gaming experiences to achieve massive success, even amidst uncertain economic times. Additionally, classic horror returns with Mongoose Publishing’s revival of Dark Conspiracy: The Unseen War, which updates the 1991 cult classic using the familiar Traveller rules engine, now live on Backerkit.Creative Approaches to Roleplaying1 Beyond current industry news, the landscape of tabletop gaming is enriched by creative tools and settings that emphasize deep narrative play. Deephold, a 5e-compatible setting guide from Mammoth Factory, provides a complex subterranean environment focused on survival, eldritch horror, and political maneuvering within the impoverished “Low Town”. These materials highlight that effective campaign design relies on immersive world-building and high-stakes narrative arcs that challenge players’ moral and tactical limits.Humor and Treason in Alpha Complex2 The Paranoia RPG continues to offer a unique, satirical take on the hobby through resources like The Big Book of Conspiracies, which compiles 30 “treasonous” plot lines derived from real-world headlines. By blending slapstick comedy with dark themes of systemic failure and institutional paranoia, these adventures provide game masters with immediate, low-preparation content that encourages the backstabbing and bureaucratic absurdity that defines the Paranoia experience.  #paizo #ttgda #neonodyssey #darkconspiracy Dark Conspiracy on Backerkit: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/mongoose-publishing/dark-conspiracy-a-horror-rpg-in-the-modern-age Sword World RPG Landing Page: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/mugen-gaming/sword-world/pre-launch Mammoth Chronicles Bundle: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/L0rK3O From Rivers to Fjords- Basic Roleplay Bundle: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/E0WYEP Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy’s Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable  Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us  a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

At Gen Con 2026, Wizards of the Coast had several major Dungeons & Dragons announcements, including the “Arcana Unleashed” gameplay expansions and the introduction of “Universes Beyond,” bringing crossovers like World of Warcraft and Star Wars to the game. The company also confirmed the return of classic settings like Dark Sun and Greyhawk, the latter featuring creative material from Gary Gygax’s archives. Actor Joe Manganiello was appointed as the Chief Creative Officer of D\&D Icons, an initiative designed to bridge the game’s 50-year heritage with its future by bringing back legendary creators to develop new, official material. Paizo unveiled a major tonal shift with “13 Omens”, a rules-light modern supernatural horror RPG featuring a shared dice pool mechanic and a system designed for one-shot narrative arcs. Alongside this new title, the publisher announced “Invaders of the Dark,” an ambitious campaign that blends science fiction and fantasy by uniting the Pathfinder and Starfinder settings. This crossover promises to allow players to experience the impact of an alien invasion across Golarion, marking a significant development for the publisher’s tentpole offerings. Free League Publishing announced “Free League Unbound,” a new digital platform built by Adam Bradford that directly addresses player concerns regarding digital ownership. The service enables users to download permanent PDFs of their purchases, ensuring long-term access, while offering a cross-device digital reader and compendium. In addition to the platform launch, Free League showcased revised core rules for “The One Ring”, which maintain full retro-compatibility, and announced major expansions such as “The White Tower and the Hall of Gold” and a bestiary titled “Creatures Strange and Foul”. Paradox Interactive’s surprise alpha playtest for “Vampire 6th Edition”, which introduces a more modern, narrative-driven ruleset. Darrington Press shared a content roadmap for “Daggerheart”, committing to two major books annually through 2030, while celebrating significant growth in character sheet creation on Demiplane. Finally, Catalyst Game Labs showcased new sourcebooks and editions for “Shadowrun” and previewed an upcoming alpha playtest for the “He Who Fights with Monsters” TTRPG. #wotc #paizo #freeleague #gencon2026 Pathfinder Second Edition: Bundle of Frogs! https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/7XLLGg Mammoth Chronicles Bundle: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/L0rK3O From Rivers to Fjords- Basic Roleplay Bundle: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/E0WYEP Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy’s Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us  a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

John Hight, the president of Wizards of the Coast, is stepping down from his position on September 1, 2026, after serving for two years. This departure follows a challenging fiscal period for Hasbro, which recently reported a $56 million loss due to canceled video game projects, although the company maintains that its core tabletop businesses remain strong. Simultaneously, leaks suggest a major upcoming collaboration between Dungeons & Dragons and World of Warcraft, potentially signaling a strategic shift toward a heavier crossover model similar to Magic: The Gathering’s successful approach. Following initial community concern over the potential end of their commercial license, Paizo and the Archives of Nethys have established a new, less formal agreement that preserves the site as an official rules archive for Pathfinder and Starfinder. Under this new arrangement, the Archives of Nethys will no longer report royalties, though it must remove art that falls outside the Community Use Policy. While the site will receive content files later than it previously did, both organizations emphasize that this adjustment ensures the continued accessibility of rules for the community. Paizo is partnering with the Seattle Mariners for a themed event titled “Pathfinder: Operation Salmon Run Day,” scheduled for August 9, 2026, at T-Mobile Park. Fans purchasing special tickets to this game will receive an exclusive set of Mariners-themed polyhedral dice and a custom Pathfinder adventure module. This promotion is not only an opportunity for fans to engage with TTRPGs in a stadium setting, but it also supports Gamers Engaged, a Seattle-based non-profit, with a donation of $5 for every ticket sold. Steve Jackson Games has opened pre-orders for the *GURPS Basic Set, 4th Edition Revised*, an update to their long-standing universal roleplaying system. This revision focuses on improving layout, readability, and accessibility while incorporating errata fixes and 16 pages of new game content without altering the core rules or compatibility with existing 4th Edition books. This release highlights the publisher’s enduring history, which includes a significant 1993 legal victory against the U.S. government that helped establish critical First Amendment protections for digital publications through the founding of the Electronic Frontier Foundation. 1490 Doom is a brutal, grimdark tabletop skirmish game created by Buer Games that is set in an alternate, dying Europe consumed by “the Creeping Death,” a toxic, rising fog that forces survivors to climb man-made structures to survive. In this fast-paced game, which typically lasts about 30 minutes over seven rounds, players command a “Doom Company” of three warriors and compete to score victory points by reaching the highest points of terrain, scavenging resource caches, and keeping their miniatures alive. The game emphasizes vertical movement, such as climbing and jumping, and features a “Breach” mechanic where miniatures whose armor is compromised must pass skill checks each round to avoid suffocating from the toxic fog. Players can utilize official models or their own 28–32mm miniatures, and the game is currently available through an express crowdfunding campaign for The Outpost at Meerbridge starter set. #wotc #archiveofnethys #paizo #GURPS #1490Doom   The Outpost at Meerbridge: 1490 DOOM Starter Set: https://gamefound.com/en/projects/buer-games/1490doomstarterset Pathfinder Second Edition: Bundle of Frogs! https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/7XLLGg Mammoth Chronicles Bundle: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/7XLLGg GURPS Basic Set Revised Pre-order: https://www.sjgames.com/gurps/books/basicrevised/ Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy’s Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us  a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

Felicia Day’s new movie,The Guild: Ren Faire’d, funded via Kickstarter, includes a D&D 5.5e campaign setting book and TTRPG created by Hit Point Press, which has already surpassed its funding goals. Justice League Unlimited RPG has launched on Gamefound, marking the first new DC RPG in nearly two decades. Co-authored by Mark Waid, the game allows players to build custom heroes using a variety of origins and powers, with the project already fully written and moving toward production. Chris McDowall is expanding his Bastionland series with Intergalactic Bastionland, a game that departs from traditional sci-fi tropes. Instead of swashbuckling adventures, players take on the roles of crew members aboard a massive starship, navigating a complex hierarchy, office politics, and personal obligations. The game draws inspiration from the claustrophobic atmosphere of Paranoia and the British schooling system, emphasizing a “home base” structure where players troubleshoot issues and occasionally take smaller vessels out for private, time-limited missions. LOOTERS: A Game of Unlicensed Adventure from Mordite Press offers a unique twist on dungeon-crawling by casting players as the brigands, witches, and cultists typically targeted by “heroes.” Designed for one-shot sessions, the game focuses on “smash & grab” gameplay where players must raid dungeons for loot and escape before authorities arrive. The system emphasizes teamwork, inventory management, and careful navigation of dangers. #theguild #justiceleague #bastionland #lootersrpg The Guild TTRPG: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/feliciaday/watchtheguild Justice League Unlimited TTRPG on Gamefound: https://gamefound.com/en/projects/d20-culture/dc-justice-league-unlimited-roleplaying-game LOOTERS, A Game of Unlicensed Adventure: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/573045/looters-smash-grab?affiliate_id=2081746 https://www.mordite.press/projects/looters-a-game-of-unlicensed-adventure/ Mammoth Chronicles Bundle: https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/L0rK3O Pathfinder Second Edition: Bundle of Frogs! https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/7XLLGg Check this out on Gamefound https://gamefound.com/en/projects/d20-culture/dc-justice-league-unlimited-roleplaying-game Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy’s Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us  a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

Paizo prepares to end its licensed partnership with the Archives of Nethys (AoN) on July 24th, affecting both thePathfinder and Starfinder ecosystems . Paizo stated that while the decision was partially influenced by a lack of generated royalties, it was also driven by the administrative burden of managing licenses and the need to clarify IP boundaries regarding artwork usage. Archives of Nethys plans to continue serving the community under the Community Use Policy, though this transition means the site will lose early access to books and must remove non-compliant artwork from its platform. At the upcoming Gen Con, actor and D&D enthusiast Joe Manganiello will debut a live play event for his new setting, “Death Saves.” This “Black Label” setting, which shares its name with Manganiello’s existing clothing brand, will be showcased in a venue occupied by Wizards of the Coast. While the exact nature of the “Black Label” initiative remains speculative, observers suggest it could represent a new moniker for “adult” D&D content or an imprint for externally developed projects, similar to previous partnerships between Wizards of the Coast and third-party creators. Modiphius Entertainment has announced a Wolfenstein TTRPG on Gamefound, which aims to capture the series’ high-octane, diesel-punk action. Mantic Games is launching an official Ghost in the Shell TTRPG, a long-term passion project from designer Alessio Cavatore. The game promises a custom narrative system and will include miniatures, aiming to translate the philosophical depth and visual style of the original manga into an immersive tabletop experience. Old Oak Games is preparing for the launch of Ink Ribbon, a survival horror TTRPG designed to emulate video games like Resident Evil and Silent Hill, complete with inventory management and “deadly bio-weapon” scenarios.  Goodman Games is readying the DCC RPG Book of Funnels, a hardcover collection featuring over 10 new 0-level adventures. These funnels are designed to be easily adaptable across various “Crawl Classics” systems, celebrating the popular format where players control multiple characters through high-stakes, often lethal encounters. #paizo #deathsave #modiphius #mantic #dcc Pathfinder Second Edition: Bundle of Frogs! https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/7XLLGg Wolfenstein TTRPG: https://gamefound.com/en/projects/modiphius/wolfenstein-the-roleplaying-game#/section/project-story Ghost in the Shell TTRPG: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/mantic-games/the-ghost-in-the-shell-tabletop-roleplaying-game/pre-launch Ink Ribbo: Survival Horro TTPRG: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/old-oak-games/ink-ribbon-a-survival-horror-tabletop-rpg/pre-launch DCC RPG Book of Funnels: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/goodman-games/dcc-rpg-book-of-funnels/pre-launch Purple Sorcerer Website: https://purplesorcerer.com/ Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy’s Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us  a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/
