Sep 11, 2024

Arriving next month from Free League Publishing and Skybound Entertainment is The Electric State roleplaying game. Based on the artbook from Simon Stålenhag. the game is set in a 1990s which never happened as the focus is on journeys across our world, post collapse. The hardcover lands in stores October 4th carrying an MSRP of $49.99. I assume the PDF will land at DriveThruRPG for $24.99.

About the game:

A road trip on the verge of reality awaits. Go on a journey into the unknown. Free League Publishing has announced that the crowdfundig campaign for The Electric State Roleplaying Game is now live on Kickstarter.

The Electric State RPG is a tabletop RPG based on the narrative art book The Electric State by acclaimed visual artist and author Simon Stålenhag, soon to be adapted into a major motion picture by the Russo brothers (Avengers: Endgame), starring Millie Bobby Brown (Stranger Things) and Chris Pratt (Guardians of the Galaxy).

The game is not about the goal but the journey – what the characters experience and how it changes them. This is a game of exploration, but that which is explored is yourself and your friends, and what you are willing to do when the world collapses around you.

The highly anticipated RPG, featuring art by Simon Stålenhag originally made for the art book project but never before published, has already reached its initial funding goal and is now running through a list of stretch goals, including virtual tabletop support, bonus archetypes, and more.
