London, ENGLAND: Thursday 20th November 2025 4pm GMT<\/strong><\/p>\n

Publisher of tabletop RPGs, wargames, and board games, Modiphius Entertainment Ltd. has today announced that it is developing new games for Terry Pratchett\u2019s Discworld\u00ae, set to be launched in 2026.<\/p>\n

Most notably, Modiphius will be launching a new Discworld board game as a pre-order on Gamefound in Q1 of 2026 named Discworld: Readers Digested<\/em>. Readers Digested<\/em> will be a licensed edition of Blue Moon City<\/em>, a game by Reiner Knizia, who is best known for his eurogame titles. Designed for 2-4 players, the game has been carefully reskinned with Discworld theming and features brand-new added expansion content.<\/p>\n

Following a successful Kickstarter campaign for Discworld: Adventures in Ankh-Morpork<\/em> which funded with over \u00a32.4m, a retail edition of the core rulebook will be coming to stores in Q2 of 2026. Exclusive to friendly local gaming stores, this will be a digest-sized core rulebook as well as a starter set with an as-yet unpublished adventure for Adventures in Ankh-Morpork<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Modiphius is also planning to bring a Discworld card game to market in Q3 2026, titled Kill Sam Vimes<\/em>. The card game drops your unlucky assassins into a contract to kill the titular character, as they try not to fall foul of deadly (and hilarious) traps and tricks imagined by the Duke of Ankh.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s not all\u2014coming in Q4 of 2026, building on the success of the first Kickstarter campaign, will be a second Discworld RPG campaign: Discworld: Adventures in Lancre and Uberwald<\/em>, set to explore Lancre (including its Witches), Uberwald, and the Chalk.<\/p>\n

For those looking to get their Discworld fix this year, Modiphius has partnered with AEG on Discworld Live<\/a> – a TTRPG live show featuring High Rollers and Andy Farrant from Oxventure, at indigo at the O2 later this month. The cast will be playing The Hogswatch adventure, just in time for the festive season.<\/p>\n
