Infinity Role-Playing Game Revealed From Modiphius!
October 31, 2014 by brennon
As the title says, Modiphius are bringing Infinity to the role-playing realm with Adventures in the Human Sphere & Beyond next year! I can imagine a fair few of you are quite excited?
The game will be entering playtesting within the next few weeks and then next year you'll be able to pick up the full book. Modiphius will also be running a Kickstarter next Summer to add more peripheral features to the game including a range of RPG miniatures, custom dice, maps, tiles and more. All very exciting!
The game will use the 2d20 system which is great for cinematic role-playing so it will be good to see how that translates nicely into the world of Infinity where d20 dice are so well loved. Here's a snippet of what Gutier had to say...
“As Infinity was created by roleplayers, our secret desire has been always to release the RPG version of the game. Unfortunately, Infinity requires all our time and we were unable to create the RPG everyone has been asking for. To find the right partner, with the same attention to detail has been really difficult and the reason we have not released an RPG before. So, when Chris contacted us we felt very happy, as he demonstrated a deep understanding of the universe and spirit of Infinity. We discussed plenty of covert operations, secret schemes and adventures and we know Modiphius has a very professional approach that will ensure they deliver a truly high-quality product. Now we only regret not having teamed up with them before!”
Will you be signing up for testing and grabbing this as soon as possible?
Let us know!
Mine yeah I’m in
This sounds interesting.
If the characters can be usef in Infinity, the models look good and there is alot of lore in the book, i can ser myself as a backer.
Infinity background + Jay Little design + Modiphius production quality… in the eternal words of Canada’s most esteemed son: ’nuff said!
I can’t wait for release!
This sounds fantastic especially if they manage to integrate use of the terrain & interiors we already have for the game. Full 3D adventures in the human sphere!
makes sense because of how important terrain is in infinity 😉
… lot’s of sneaking around and hiding in the shadows maybe ? 😉
Sounds promising! I’m especially curious how the “RPG miniatures” will turn out and if they’ll be compatible with the normal Infinity miniature range.
Looking forward to see more!
called it! entering smug mode
Oh no. Turning the best sci-fi game ever into an RPG will not be good for my budget.
😉 it’s definitely going to be interesting 😀
Sounds great, personally i would love combat involving minis though.
I disagree – combat involving minis is just … regular Infinity… you can always take your characters to the board, but that, in my opinion, is not where the strength of an RPG lies
Too many good RPGs out there now! Damn when am I going to find time to play them all? Modiphius has the best quality books I have ever seen. Might just start collecting them for a library.
Sold!
As always we hope for the best, though I would have loved to see the license handled by Cubicle Seven. Infinity would have deserved to be served by the best.
Where do I pre-order!!!!
