Marvel dropped some big news on Friday. They’re releasing their very own tabletop roleplaying game in 2023 called Marvel Multiverse. The game will use the all-new D616 system and let you play as your favorite heroes and villains.
In spring 2022, a Playtest Rulebook will become available allowing fans to take on the roles of their favorite heroes or the ability to create brand new ones. The Playtest Rulebook will even have full profiles available for fan favorites including Spider-Man, Black Panther, Captain America, Thor, Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, Wolverine, Storm, and more.
Marvel Multiverse is written and co-designed by Matt Forbeck (The Marvel Encyclopedia). Sadly, we don’t know much about the new D616 system, but there are 6 stats that your character will use: Might, Agility, Resilience, Vigilance, Ego, and Logic.
They also say that it’s “an accessible and easy-to-learn system for newcomers to tabletop RPGs and a natural evolution for those familiar with the most popular tabletop role-playing games on the market.” Anyone who plays with the Playtest Rulebook will be given the chance to provide feedback before the game has its full release in 2023. The cover for the Playtest Rulebook is by Iban Coello.
