Blade Runner The Roleplaying Game will arrive very soon.

Announced today, the title, which was voted Most Anticipated RPG of 2022 by EN World, will make its way on December 13. The game can be pre-ordered on Free League Publishing’s webshop here.

The rules featured in the game are based on the Year Zero Engine, which has been featured in popular titles such as Alien RPG, Tales From The Loop, and Forbidden Lands. Just like Alien RPG, Free League co-founder Tomas Härenstam is the lead game designer for Blade Runner The Roleplaying Game.

A synopsis for the game reads:

Set in the year 2037, your adventure begin shortly after the Wallace Corporation debuts the new Nexus-9 Replicants on Earth. You are a Blade Runner of the Los Angeles Police Department’s Rep-Detect Unit. It’s your job to delve down the darkest alleys, strut through City Hall, and see enough stains on every soul and scumbag to spot one from meters away.
It doesn’t matter if inside you is a soul or synthetics. Because when you pull that blaster, you’re nothing but a Blade Runner. The closest thing this city’s got to a fighting chance. And you’ve got a job to do.
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?
