by · Bloody Disgusting

So, Alien: Romulus was a pretty cool return to theatres for the franchise. So much so, that Free League Publishing are have decided to take advantage of the hype by announcing that their upcoming Evolved Edition of Alien: The Roleplaying Game (previously known as the 2nd Edition) will feature settings, spacecrafts, and gear from the iconic film Alien: Romulus.

In fact, the Evolved Edition features updated rules that are largely based upon feedback from thousands of players over the past five years and counting. Alongside the updated rules, the Evolved Edition will also feature more new content, new artwork, and expanded tools for players and Game Mothers alike, all fully compatible with all released materials thus far.

Working in collaboration with 20th Century Studios, Free League can now welcome players back to Jackson’s Star all on their own with a host of new gaming resources, including an in-depth exploration of the mining colony, the new F44AA Pulse Rifle, and the USCSS Corbelan IV mining hauler spacecraft.

Speaking of which, Free League has revealed a new pulse rifle illustration from John Mullaney and official artwork of Jackson’s Star from Col Price, one of the concept artists who designed the colony in the film.

The launch date for the Kickstarter campaign for the Evolved Edition has also moved to Spring 2025, ensuring that Free League can bring more ideas from their community to Alien: RPG.

Meanwhile, Alien: Romulus heads to streaming services on October 15, while the physical edition arrives in December.
