\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In\u00a0The Walking Dead Universe RPG<\/em>, you will play as people struggling to survive in a hostile world. Exceptional challenges can appear from anywhere \u2013 from the lack of essential supplies, conflicts brewing within the group, hidden construction flaws in your safe haven, or approaching walkers hungering for your flesh.<\/p>\n

The Walking Dead Universe RPG<\/em>\u00a0is now available via the\u00a0Free League webstore<\/a>, at hobby stores all across the world,\u00a0as a Foundry\u00a0VTT-module, and as a PDF at\u00a0DriveThruRPG<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Player characters must not only hone their physical skills but deeply explore who they truly are \u2013 what drives them to go on, what they consider worth fighting for, and what they\u2019re capable of doing in the best and worst of times.<\/p>\n

There are two ways to play the game: Campaign Mode and Survival Mode. In Campaign Mode, it is your goals and choices, and the result of your group efforts, that create the storyline, while in Survival Mode, the game presents you with dangerous situations that need to be handled immediately. Survival Mode scenarios often feature locations and characters from the TV series.<\/p>\n

Expect the stress and stakes to be high. The rules of\u00a0The Walking Dead Universe RPG<\/em>\u00a0are based on the acclaimed Year Zero Engine, used in Free League\u00b4s award-winning games such as the\u00a0ALIEN RPG, Blade Runner RPG, Tales From the Loop RPG, Mutant: Year Zero<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Forbidden Lands,<\/em>\u00a0but uniquely tailored for\u00a0The Walking Dead Universe<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Walking Dead Universe RPG\u00a0<\/em>is a co-production between AMC Networks and the award-winning tabletop publisher. The Free League team has been working closely with key forces behind the franchise, including Chief Content Officer of\u00a0The Walking Dead Universe<\/em>\u00a0Scott M. Gimple. The RPG series will introduce new story elements while drawing inspiration from the current series and upcoming spin-offs.<\/p>\n
