Find Your Destiny with The Planet of the Apes Role-Playing Game! Out now!

YOU MANIACS! YOU MADE IT A GAME! Pierre Boulle’s 1963 novel Planet of the Apes and Franklin J. Schaffner’s 1968 film adaptation introduced the world to an epic sci-fi universe populated by super-intelligent apes and surly astronauts – launching a decades-long franchise featuring films, novels, comics, and more. Fans have observed the futuristic planet for long enough! Now it is time for them to jump in and experience the world first-hand! Following the smash-hit Kickstarter campaign, Magnetic Press invites fans to explore the Planet of the Apes with The Role-Playing Game of the Planet of the Apes. Featuring a breathtaking cover by legendary artist Bill Sienkiewicz and a wide variety of inspiring illustrations throughout, the official Planet of the Apes RPG will challenge players’ preconceptions of the classic franchise and role-playing games. This beautifully illustrated rulebook will thrust fans onto a planet where humans are the lowest order of living things — and the superior beings are apes. 

Built on the official Magnetic Variant (D6MV) of the classic D6 System role-playing game rules created by West End Games, Planet of the Apes is easy to learn yet full of challenges to master. With settings and lore written by a team of celebrated writers and designers under the lead of science fiction novelist Andrew E.C. Gaska and E.L. Thomas, this core rulebook contains all you need to roleplay in this upside-down world where apes evolved from humans.

Gaska and Thomas are joined by writers Rich HandleyDayton WardDave SemarkGreg CoxDavid AvalloneJim Beard, David F. Walker, Kim Perrone, and Vidar Edland as well as artists Runa I. RosenbergerChris ScalfShane MolinaChandra Free, Andrew ProbertChris MoellerBarron StoreyErik GistDan Dussault, and Colo

In addition to The Role-Playing Game of the Planet of the Apes: Core Rulebook, Magnetic Press is releasing Planet of the Apes RPG: The ANSA Files Sourcebook and Planet of the Apes RPG: Into the Forbidden Zone – Campaign Boxed Set. The ANSA Files will allow fans to interact with the apes and humans that have come directly from the silver screen—Caesar, Taylor, Zira, Hasslein, and, of course, Dr. Zaius—every iconic character is gamified for campaign use with biographies and statistics. This sourcebook showcases a detailed chronology of the distinctly different timeline that arose out of choices made by both human and ape alike. And the Into the Forbidden Zone gives players a chance to put both the Rulebook and Sourcebook to good use in a complete guided campaign featuring two 24×36 map posters, 64 reference cards, seven preprinted character sheets, a Game Master screen, punch-out map markers and tokens, twelve custom dice, and a 96-page campaign adventure module. 

Atlas Games launches Fork Ice February

Fork Ice

Atlas Games has announced “Fork ICE February.” Each day, they’ll feature a different title on sale on their website. That title will be discounted 50% and then Atlas Games will donate 100% of the sale price to local organizations helping the people of Minnesota affected by the ICE storm.

As they write in their announcement:

Here in Minnesota, and most visibly Minneapolis, we’ve responded to an armed federal presence with radical nonviolence, solidarity, and mutual aid. When legal immigrants are detained after showing up at their court hearings, people are picked up off the street for the color of their skin, and children are abducted and shipped out of state or country, it’s understandable that some are afraid to leave their homes. Countless Minnesotans and organizations have stepped up to help: delivering groceries, providing legal assistance, and even helping with rent (because people have no income when they can’t go to work).

Federally-sanctioned violence and even killing has only increased our resolve and drawn more people of conscience to become active. If you feel called to help, the website Stand With Minnesota is a tremendous resource, with information, links to organizations, and many ways people can help, wherever you live.

Watch for the first “Fork ICE February” title to appear on sale at midnight, and check back every day to see what new gamer goodness Atlas Games has for you.

Then, make your own “Fork ICE February” image! Post it on social media and tag Atlas Games, and they’ll pick their favorites to use in their blog posts this month.

Solo Fallout RPG: Wasteland Wanderer is Now Available for Pre-order

Fallout The Roleplaying Game: Wasteland Wanderer

Modiphius Entertainment has launched the pre-order for the anticipated solo edition of Fallout The Roleplaying Game: Wasteland Wanderer.

Based on Bethesda’s hugely successful Fallout series, Wasteland Wanderer allows players to record their adventures and play an RPG in the wasteland without the need for a group or gamemaster.

Wasteland Wanderer is based on Modiphius’ 2d20 system and procedurally generates the story for players. It allows them to explore the wasteland as their character emerges from a Vault-Tec vault, immersing them in the post-atomic United States.

To play Wasteland Wanderer, players go through rounds involving four stages: Travel, Encounter, Action, and Journaling, where they roll d20s to generate where they go, what happens there, decide what they do, all using tables to procedurally generate the story as they go.

Available for £40 / $55 / €45, Fallout The Roleplaying Game: Wasteland Wanderer is expected to ship in April 2026.

With this 256-page, full-color, royal-sized hardcover guide players can:

  • Create an original vault dweller to roleplay, as well as their original vault.
  • Explore a randomly-generated wasteland and record your story as you travel the surface.
  • Learn about the Fallout setting and its factions from coast to coast.
  • Generate quests, scenarios, opponents, and obstacles from a huge variety of random oracle tables.

Fallout The Roleplaying Game: Wasteland Wanderer is compatible with Fallout: The Roleplaying Game.

The Yoroni Shikigami arrive for Conquest in February

Para Bellum Wargames releases a completely new unit for the Yoroni in February for Conquest: The Last Argument of Kings and Conquest: First Blood. Not all Yoroni succeed at attaining the pinnacle of the Five-Fold Path. Some are simply too reduced, too weakened by their ordeal to reach the top. Stranded halfway, these weakened and reduced souls would be doomed to an eternity trapped within the Eternal Pagoda were it not for the efforts of the Kototamagaku. These skilled practitioners are capable of calling forth these weakened spirits by invoking their name, aiding them in crossing over to the Prime domain even in their weakened form. Thus reduced, these pitiful remnants lack the raw power of the Yoroni who cross on their own, but make up for it in sheer numbers and the boundless exuberance for even a brief respite in the Prime domain is enough to empower these souls, invigorating them to return to the Five Fold Path with a vengeance and attain its peak, crossing forth on their own.

Sold as a set of 3 main brute miniatures, the box will include an incredible array of extra for fans. In game, Shikigami give the Yoroni forces a cost-effective screening regiment, enabling elite units to maneuver around them with greater tactical flexibility as well as Charging and Volleying straight through the screen.  They are considered size 1.

The Yoroni Shikigami is available for Pre-Order at an SRP of USD 64.99 /EU 59.99. This set will release February 27th worldwide, the same day that the new edition of First Blood will be released to the universe!

Games Workshop 2026 New Year Preview: Prepare for Huron Blackheart’s Red Corsairs!

After a bit of a teaser at the end of 2025, Games Workshop has revealed not just Huron Blackheart but an army’s worth of releases for his Red Corsairs.

Huron Blackheart and the Masters of the Maelstrom is Huron’s inner circle made up of old comrades and new luminaries. Three hail from the dark days of the Badab War: Garreon the Corpsemaster, Lord-Apothecary and former Astral Claw; Katar Garrix, cold-hearted headsman formerly of the Executioners; and Garlon Souleater, a master manipulator and deadly sorcerer once under the banner of the Mantis Warriors. Captain Sargotta is the finest shipmaster in the Red Corsairs fleet and the chief architect of their many naval victories. The Tarellian bounty hunter known only as The Enforcer – as few care to learn or pronounce her true name – doggedly hunts down those cowards who fail the Master of the Red Corsairs and choose flight rather than their deserved death.

The forces of the Red Corsair are getting brand new models that will be first released in their own battleforce box. The set features a unit of 10 Red Corsair Raiders, Reave-Captain, 10 Legionaries, 5 Terminators, and 10 Traitor Guardsmen as well as the new pack of Red Corsairs upgrades and transfers.

Red Corsair Raiders are a new plastic kit that represents Space Marines that have turned away from the Imperium to aid the Dark Gods of Chaos. There’s a mix of wargear with Imperial armor and weapons both old and new. They’re the tip of the spear crashing into the enemy lines with blades and bolt shells.

  • Red Corsair Raiders
  • Red Corsair Raiders
  • Red Corsair Raiders
  • Red Corsair Raiders
  • Red Corsair Raiders

The Reave-Captain leads these forces and often become notorious corsair captains.

Reave-Captain

A new Red Corsairs Upgrades kit is coming out too. It features head options, shoulder pads, piratical flair, and two sheets of 248 transfers.

Red Corsairs Upgrades

Rules for running your army as a thematic Red Corsairs raiding fleet will be found in The Maelstrom: Lair of the Tyrant.

Games Workshop 2026 New Year Preview: The High Elves hit the Blood Bowl Pitch

There’s one team that hasn’t received an update and new figures in the relaunched Blood Bowl, the High Elves! Hailing from Ultuan, they’re back with a new team, the Caledor Dragons, taking to the Blood Bowl pitch.

Six special positionals make up one half of the team: two White Lions blitzers who are armed with Claws for prising open cages and defensive lines, two Phoenix Warriors throwers who throw high, arcing passes with Secure Pass and Cloud Burster, and two swaggering Dragon Princes with Block and Steady Footing who can block as well as they can score.

Every High Elf Team is well-armoured and agile, sporting Armour Value 9+ across the board. The six High Elf Linemen don’t come with any special skills, but do round out their impressive statline with MA6, and AG 2+, which makes them dependable and versatile. What a bunch of show offs.

You also get two turn and re-roll markers, two double-sided Blood Bowl coins, plus two Dragonling and two Shimmer Stone balls which have rules in the upcoming Spike! Journal Issue 21.

That latest magazine is filled with trivia and background on the High Elf teams as well as special team rules.

With a new team, there’s also a new double-sided team pitch and dugout to play in style as well as thematic dice and a reference card pack.
