Green Ronin will publish DMG Entertainment and Valiant Entertainment’s comic book universe next year in Valiant Adventures Roleplaying Game in 2024.
The new edition will be based on Green Ronin’s Mutants & Masterminds RPG.
Chris Pramas, Green Ronin’s boss, told the press;
We have designed RPG material that’s appeared in Valiant comics before, so making a full roleplaying game is the natural next step. We’re excited to bring the characters and settings of the Valiant Universe into the Mutants & Masterminds family.”
DriveThruRPG already rates the Catalyst Game Labs 2014 Valiant Universe: The Roleplaying Game as a Platinum bestseller. That edition uses the Cue system and has sourcebooks for characters such as BloodshotTOy Harada, Harbinger, Rai and X-O Manowar.
Russ Brown, President of Consumer Products, Promotions and Ad Sales at Valiant Entertainment, added;
We’re thrilled with the opportunity to team up with Green Ronin and bring our unique and exciting characters to life in the Valiant Adventures Roleplaying Game using their versatile Mutants & Masterminds RPG format. Valiant fans are some of the most engaged fanbase around the world and to give them the chance to inhabit the Valiant Universe as never before is a wonderful opportunity”
Gamers won’t need Mutants & Masterminds to leap into the Valiant Universe.
Alexander Thomas, who is developing the new game, notes;
This project kicks off with Valiant Adventures Hero’s Handbook and the Worlds of Valiant campaign setting. Our mission is to bring the pages of Valiant comics to life in a roleplaying game. The Mutants & Masterminds rules engine, renowned for its adaptability, ensures a game world infused with Valiant’s signature gritty realism. The adaptations we made to our M&M Quickstart Character Generator cover Valiant staples like Deadsiders, psiots, or nanite-infused heroes. The Worlds of Valiant campaign setting features game stats for over 80 heroes and villains, and iconic locations like Britannia, The Deadside, Earth, The Faraway, New Japan, Space, The Stalinverse, and The Unknown.”
The news is fresh off the stand, and Green Ronin is promising more later and from their website.
The publisher is already still in the limelight with the news they’ll be helping to bring the POC-owned Afrofuturist RPG Into The Mother Lands to retailers.
