Get Your Nostalgia On with Catalyst Game Labs' Shadowrun: First Edition Reprint

Catalyst Game Labs are celebrating the anniversary of Shadowrun: First Edition, and so can you.

Now available, the Shadowrun: First Edition: Anniversary Reproduction allows you to ‘Relive the early days of the Sixth World’. Presenting a sci-fi / fantasy world in which cyberpunk meets D&D,Shadowrun was the first tabletop roleplaying game to combine the genres and tropes of cyberpunk and high-fantasy fiction and RPGs. In doing so, it presented players with a cyber-noire world in which humans, elves, orcs et al inhabited a future society dominated by cybernetics, netrunning and corporate rule. Sorcery was as common as cybercrime, and humans rubbed shoulders with the likes of elves, orcs and dwarves.

Described as a ‘Painstakingly crafted and rebuilt from the ground up’, this triumphal tome faithfully reprints FASA’s original 1989 edition; thus, long time fans and more recent converts can celebrate the first edition’s ‘timeless mechanics, [and] original artwork.’ So faithful is this reproduction, in fact, that it even includes the original typos and the classic paper stock ‘found in those rulebooks of yesteryear.’

See the Catalyst Game Labs website for more details.
