Taking another step into the world of virtual tabletop roleplaying, Free League Publishing today released its multiple award-winning RPGs ALIEN and Forbidden Lands on the Foundry platform. The Foundry modules are available as stand-alone digital products or in print & virtual bundles.
 

For the official ALIEN RPG (Gold ENNIE winner for Best Game 2020), the Starter Set, the Core Rulebook, and the Destroyer of Worlds cinematic scenario pack are now all available as Foundry modules, via the Free League webshop.
 

For retro-fantasy survival RPG Forbidden Lands (winner of four ENNIE Awards 2019), the core rules as well as the Raven's Purge and The Bitter Reach campaign modules are both available on Foundry. This is the first official release of Forbidden Lands modules on a virtual tabletop.
 

All the released game modules on Foundry are fully integrated with the VTT platform with online maps and diagrams, player handouts ready to share, and more. The Foundry modules are offered at a low introductory price, to invite previous owners of the physical products to try the virtual modules as well. For newcomers, the print & virtual bundles offers both in a competitive package.
 

"Foundry Virtual Tabletop is extremely pleased to have partnered with Free League to bring premium content for their wonderful game systems to Foundry VTT. Fria Ligan creates wonderful and evocative game systems and I am thrilled to have their work available for Foundry users to integrate into their games," says Foundry creator Andrew Blase.
 

Please note that a Foundry base license is required to use the VTT modules.
 

More games from Free League will be launched on Foundry and other virtual tabletop platforms in a near future.

About ALIEN THE ROLEPLAYING GAME

Winner of the ENnie Award for Best Game 2020

Winner of the People's Choice Award for Best RPG at the UK Game Expo

“I can’t lie to you about your chances, but … you have my sympathies.”

Space is vast, dark, and not your friend. The official ALIEN tabletop roleplaying game offers a universe of body horror and corporate brinkmanship. It is a harsh and unforgiving universe, and you are nothing if not expendable. And there are things lurking in the shadows—things strange and different and deadly. Things alien. Stay alive if you can.

“The real horror of Ridley Scott’s seminal sci-fi flick Alien has always been the creeping, slithering fear of the unknown. It’s impressive, then, that Free League has been able to craft a tabletop roleplaying game that can conjure up that same pitch-dark dread from the safety of your kitchen table.”

"It's like someone took hazy childhood memories of a classic D&D game and mixed them with a dash of bleak Scandinavian darkness." –Tabletop Magazine
