Renegade Game Studios Reveals ‘Overlight’ Roleplaying Game

Aug 23, 2017

A big Gen Con announcement last weekend took many of us by surprise as Renegade Game Studios revealed their first entry into the field of roleplaying games. Overlight will be the initial release in an all new fantasy setting, scheduled to arrive in 2018. Details are pretty scarce at the moment but, with the excellent quality of Renegade titles, this is certainly one to keep our eyes peeled for in the future.

From Renegade:

Renegade Game Studios is excited to announce the creation of a novel fantasy setting, Overlight. The first product announced within this world is a role-playing game designed by Paul Alexander Butler and George Holland, expected for release in 2018.

Overlight is a fantasy roleplaying game of kaleidoscopic journeys: a visceral, dangerous, and brightly-colored setting. Characters will search for personal meaning among a fantastic, sometimes violent, and overwhelming world.

“We want to return a sense of wonder to fantasy roleplaying. Elves and Dwarves and Orcs are great, but we’ve seen them done countless times, and we want to take players someplace they haven’t been before,” explains Paul Alexander Butler, co-creator of Overlight.

“I’m so excited to be working with Paul and George to bring their unique world to life. The Roleplaying game is a great way to introduce everyone to the Overlight and the world is so rich that we decided not to stop there. We have a lot of plans for the World of Overlight and I can’t wait to tell you all more about it,” says Scott Gaeta, President of Renegade Game Studios.
