Marvel multiverse tabletop role-playing game

The Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game: Playtest Rulebook will hit stores in spring 2022. Matt Forbeck (author and game designer) wrote the rulebook and co-designed the game, which will utilise “the all-new D616 System.” Marvel also calls it an “easy-to-learn system for newcomers to table-top RPGs and a natural evolution for those familiar with the most popular table-top role-playing games on the market.”

Under the D616 system, players can assume the role of Marvel mainstays like Spider-Man, Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, Black Panther, and more. Additionally, players will have the option to create their own heroes for the game.
