The Sixth World--one of the most enduring RPG settings ever created, with shadows growing deeper and darker prepares for its latest edition. Dominated by enormous, world-striding megacorporations, metahumanity is clutched in their stranglehold. By 2080 most of the planet has acquiesced to their vise-like grip, and surrendered to the corporate overlords. But from the darkest shadows, defiance flickers in people known as shadowrunners. They risk everything--wrestling magical energies, channeling them into power; putting their minds against the electronic void of the Matrix; trading flesh and blood for chrome and steel. This 320-page new edition is easier to play and learn than it has ever been, yet it still offers the role-playing depth that is a key part of the Shadowrun experience. The rule system is built around gaining advantages and taking risks, building up to spectacular moments that are part of great gaming sessions! Faster gameplay and conflict resolution keep the game moving and plunge players ever-deeper into Sixth World intrigue. More pre-generated characters, plus character-creation rules, allow you to design and select exactly the character you want to use in the game.
