As the responsible parties of Steamforged Games announced at the end of 2021, the studio is already working on its next ambitious project: a tabletop role-playing game for the dark fantasy classic Dark Souls. A world that the creative minds at Steamforged Games are already familiar with, after all, the company released the official board game for Dark Souls in 2017, which, like the board game template, scored with a tough difficulty level.
With the tabletop role-playing game for Dark Souls, Steamforged Games is now taking another step forward. The catch is that the studio has not yet been able to extract any concrete details about the new excursion into the world of Dark Souls so far and merely referred to the fact that these will follow in due course. However, as part of the official announcement, a first teaser trailer was presented, which should allow fans to draw first conclusions about the tabletop RPG from Steamforged Games.
Is our way back to Lordran?
So in the said trailer you can see the iconic bonfire from the first Dark Souls adventure and the rest of the trailer's look and feel also suggests that the tabletop role-playing game will be set in the dangerous world of Landron. So maybe you can look forward to a reunion with familiar bosses like the Gargoyles, the Boar Demon, the Moonlight Butterfly or the Chaos Witch Quelaag.
Another point that distinguished Dark Souls and should also be taken into account in the tabletop RPG is the free development of your hero. In the video game template it was possible to invest earned souls at your own discretion in the status values of your own character and thus determine in which direction this develops. Everything was imaginable here, from powerful knights, to stealthy hunters and thieves, to powerful mages.
Comparing to Fifth Edition Dungeons & Dragons?
A concept of character development that practically begs for a tabletop roleplaying game. Especially since fans, based on the experiences Steamforged Games has gathered with its previous board game adaptations, expect that the character development and combat mechanics can be compared to Fifth Edition Dungeons & Dragons.
However, none of this has been officially confirmed yet. Instead, Steamforged Games only promises an exciting and dark tabletop experience in the world of Dark Souls so far. A concrete release date, just like concrete information, is still pending.
