Nominate your MOST ANTICIPATED RPG of 2024

As I do every year, I'm taking nominations for the MOST ANTICIPATED RPG poll for the coming year. Here is last year's Top 10 (spoiler: the winner was Pendragon 6th Edition). Previous winners include 13th Age (2013), Star Wars Force & Destiny (2015), Rifts for Savage Worlds (2016), Trudvang Chronicles (2017), Vampire: the Masquerade 5th Edition (2018), Savage Worlds Adventure Edition (2019), Dune (2020 & 2021), Twilight 2000 (2021), Blade Runner (2022), and Pendragon 6E (2023). What will be the most anticipated RPG of 2024?

We do this at the end of every year, and have done for several years now! Here's how it works:

We start with a nomination stage. That's this thread. You may nominate any standalone tabletop RPG due to be released to the general public in 2024. All nominated games will appear on the final ballot. To nominate a game, simply make a reply in this thread. A few rules:

1. It must be a standalone tabletop RPG, NOT a supplement, setting, adventure, sourcebook, expansion, or accessory. If there is a QuickStart version, or a preview, it’s the full release that counts.
2. It must be due out to the general public in 2024. The important date is the date the general public can purchase the book. That's not Kickstarter fulfillment dates or pre-orders.
3. It must be nominated by at least one person in this thread. Simply post the name of the game and the name of the publisher below to nominate it.
4. You can nominate up to two games. It's not a contest to see who can list the most games!
5. Nominations will remain open for two weeks, until December 28th. Voting will take place shortly thereafter.
6. Not your own game or one you’re affiliated with.
7. Include a link. Don't make me Google to try guess what you mean! No linky, no nommy.

Last year's winner was Pendragon 6E (pictured above). You can see last year's top 10 here. Sometimes products make it into the list in more than one year; what can I say? Product schedules slip!

I'm looking forward to The Secret World a rpg based off the MMO. The MMO might have been mediocre but the lore I thought was top notch. I think it's in it's final editing pass and has to pass approval at Funcom, so hopefully it'll be early 2024.

While I'm not even sure it's even realising in 2024, the most anticipated for me would have to be Pendragon 6e. I bought the Starter Set, was very impressed and my group really enjoyed playing with the rules. So if the 6e CRB hardcover does get released next year, I'll snap it up.

It is due in March, according to a press release. https://www.chaosium.com/blogthree-new-chaosium-releases-for-march-2024/

My second official nomination: I am looking forward to the Cairn 2nd edition kickstarter next year. Maybe it'll release in 2024 too! There's a free playtest version, but according to the first couple of rules, those don't count (can't be purchased, since it's free; and it's a playtest version, not the full release version).

Guessing someone else already nominated 13A 2e but that's probably mine?

OH! And the arthur-esque version of Into the Odd/Bastionland.. can't recall the name right now

Apologies! Here is the link to the Kickstarter showing an anticipated delivery of the print materials in Nov 2024. It will be available to purchase by the public once the Kickstarter ships. https://www.kickstarter.com/project...-king-system-imperial-imprint-acks-ii/rewards

Did we get a ruling on whether D&D’s new rulebooks count as a new edition, eligible for this vote or not?

I think it’s respectful to go by what the publisher says. They say it’s not, so no.
