I know you're asking the creator, but they're still playtesting it, from what I understand.

Everytime I get an email from about LevelUp that isn't relating the Voidrunner’s Codex I'm disappointed

We’ve got Dungeon Delver’s Guide first. So some way off.

Necroing my own thread because I am currently running a 5E conversion (by me as we go) of PF1E Iron Gods AP. I have UltraModern5Redux for some gear, but it tends to be more "hard science" than some of the Iron Gods stuff. What 5E compatible sci-fi and sci-fa books have great treasure and monsters? Extra points if they have Fantasy Grounds ports.

Carbon 2185 is a cyberpunk reskin of 5E. If you want a body aug element of sci-fi in your 5E, it might be a good place to pull from.

There is an official Numenera for 5e (instead of its own Cypher System).

It features far-out scifi.

Here is a brief review with a few nice images to give the feel of Numenera.

Also Arcana of the Ancients for 5e Numenera, for monsters and supertech, which I see you know about.

For me, one of my go-to 5e settings is modern / near future. Basically like today but artificial intelligence and supertech are possible.

I reflavor standard D&D classes, like Paladin and Wizard, as technological instead of magical.

Feywild and Shadowfell are virtual realities that can overlay real places.

Plus, I occasionally port in or convert mechanics from elsewhere.

My favorite part of this setting is using reallife Google maps as battlemaps.

I ahve Arcana of the Ancients and it is wonderful, but it is generally too "out there" for Iron Gods.
