| The upcoming BLADE RUNNER RPG raised $1.6M in the Kickstarter and unlocked 26 stretchgoals – now Late Pledges for the neon noir RPG have begun. |
| Get your badges and blasters ready! Late pledges have begun for the Kickstarter for BLADE RUNNER: THE ROLEPLAYING GAME. A neon-noir wonderland awaits that’ll take your breath away. One way or another. * Later this year, you will walk the mean streets of Los Angeles 2037 in a new game from the award-winning team behind the hit ALIEN RPG. The BLADE RUNNER RPG invites you into an evocative world of conflicts and contrasts that dares to ask the hard questions and investigate the powers of empathy, the poisons of fear, and the burdens of being human during inhumane times. * Voted the #1 Most Anticipated RPG of 2022 at EN World, the BLADE RUNNER RPG Kickstarter campaign blew through its initial funding goal within three minutes. When the campaign ended, the game had raised 1.6 million USD and unlocked 26 stretchgoals. * |

*
Set in the year 2037, the adventures begin shortly after the Wallace Corporation debuts the new Nexus-9 Replicants on Earth, giving players the choice to play as either human or Replicant Blade Runners with different specialties, personalities, and memories.
*
Beyond the core casework, the game will both in setting and mechanics showcase key themes of Blade Runner – sci-fi action, corporate intrigue, existential character drama, and moral conflict.
*
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 agonize over itches you can’t scratch. 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?
*
The rules of the game are based on the acclaimed Year Zero Engine, used in award-winning games such as the official ALIEN RPG, Vaesen – Nordic Horror Roleplaying, Tales From the Loop and Forbidden Lands, but further developed and uniquely tailored for BLADE RUNNER.
*
Tomas Härenstam, Free League co-founder and lead game designer of the ALIEN RPG, fills the same role for the BLADE RUNNER RPG. Original artwork comes from lead ALIEN RPG artist Martin Grip, with Joe LeFavi of Genuine Entertainment is serving as the lead setting writer, brand manager, and producer on the game series.
