Battleworld Arrives in the 'Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game' with All-New Secret Wars Expansion

The Secret Wars Expansion brings together heroes and villains from across the Marvel Multiverse, in addition to all-new locations, character sheets, and more to the 'Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game' this summer!

Marvel’s Multiverse comes crashing down on tabletops everywhere this summer!

Heroes and villains from across Marvel’s pantheon will fight for the fate of reality itself in the MARVEL MULTIVERSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: SECRET WARS EXPANSION, Marvel’s next major tabletop expansion for the Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game, featuring all-new character sheets, playable Battleworld locations, and other Marvel cosmic forces and artifacts to create an unforgettable adventure. SECRET WARS EXPANSION will be written by award-winning author Matt Forbeck, alongside writers Alex Irvine and Marty Forbeck, with new maps from cartographer Brian Patterson.

In SECRET WARS EXPANSION, the Multiverse has been destroyed, and God Emperor Doom rules over its shattered pieces in a single patchwork planet: Battleworld. Players will be able to take a deep dive into the event that changed Marvel forever, including an adventuring framework to fight their way through Battleworld and its many lands. Traverse through the neon-drenched streets of 2099, zombie-infested Deadlands, a Gamma-irradiated expanse of Greenland, and more! The expansion also includes an exploration of the Fantastic Four, the Negative Zone, the Guardians of the Galaxy, and the vast Marvel cosmos and its cosmic forces, including new rules for how to handle Rank X characters of unbelievable might.

“I’ve been a fan of SECRET WARS since the first one in 1984, and I’m having a fantastic time bringing all of them to life in our game,” shared Forbeck. “The Battleworld from the brilliant 2015 SECRET WARS makes for the best sandbox ever. All the wildest parts of the Marvel Multiverse on one God Emperor Doomed planet!”

The 256-page SECRET WARS EXPANSION will feature a new cover by artists Sean Izaakse and Erick Arciniega and a special collectible convention-exclusive variant cover by Francesco Manna and Jesus Aburtov, available at Gen Con later this summer.
