Now You Can Pre-Order The Homeworld RPG
Homeworld: Revelations captures the magic of the Homeworld series and brings it to your tabletop. Now it’s available for pre-order from Modiphius.
The Homeworld series of videogames broke new ground twenty years ago, blending real-time, fleet-based combat in three dimensions with epic storytelling and a campaign that actually feels like you progress across a galaxy.
The story of the Kushan and their escape from a merciless empire in search of their true home world, and their discoveries along the way reveal a harsh but wondrous galaxy. Hidden truths and ancient, star-bound aliens and more were unfurled to players conveying a sense of exploration alongside thrilling space combat that required you to build the right kind of fleet for the right kind of mission if you were to survive the long journey. Two years ago, a sequel crowdfunded, and with it came a bonus goal–an RPG that would bring Homeworld to your tabletop.
Homeworld: Revelations is here. For pre-order that is. Let’s take a look.
