The Replicant Underground is officially enlisting new recruits! The Kickstarter campaign for Replicant Rebellion, the massive new expansion for Blade Runner: The Roleplaying Game from Free League Publishing, was fully funded today within twelve minutes after launch.
Replicant Rebellion expands the scope of the acclaimed tabletop RPG, recruiting players to join the ranks of the Replicant Underground in Los Angeles 2037. Set at the same time and place as the Core Rulebook, players explore this neon-noir wonderland from the opposite perspective – now running from Blade Runners in an evocative cat & mouse race of provocateurs and powderkegs lit to explode, expose, and oppose the establishment, one way or another. For the Rebellion, players will run their own independent crew who must undertake a variety of operations, all while attempting to maintain their cover and keep their records clean. Are they helping fugitive Replicants evade capture? Sabotaging the titans of the Replicant trade? Grappling with the cops, courts, and megacorps? Clashing with warring crews and syndicates? Smoking out moles in your midst? In this big city of dazzling lights and moral contradictions, Replicant Rebellion flips the famous script of the beloved Blade Runner universe and dares you to explore how much you’re willing to lose for a cause sacrificing it all. Yet regardless the price, the Rebellion must live on. With the debut of today’s successful Kickstarter, Free League has revealed their line-up available to backers now:
All backers will get the PDF version of Replicant Rebellion months ahead of the official release. As an added incentive, all backers of physical items who pledge their support within the first 24 hours will receive an exclusive art print featuring Martin Grip’s electric cover art of Replicant Rebellion at no extra cost. The main crew from the Blade Runner RPG core game continues on Replicant Rebellion with Tomas Härenstam as game director and lead designer, Joe LeFavi as setting writer, and Martin Grip as cover artist, plus new recruits: Eren Arik (Dune) as lead interior artist and Johan Nohr (MÖRK BORG, CY_BORG) providing mind-melting interstitials as the subversive voice of the Rebellion. Join the Rebellion via the REPLICANT REBELLION Kickstarter today, then follow the campaign and Free League’s social channels across Instagram, X, and Facebook as more stretch goals and surprises unlock throughout the campaign. |
