Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cergorach" data-source="post: 9854163" data-attributes="member: 725">I don't think WotC/Hasbro would be interested in the SW IP for pnp RPGs at this point, it seems they are concentrating on their own IP or trying to develop their own new IP. Which I find a shame, because an official 5e compatible version of SW would be interesting!I extremely dislike Modiphius. They are very good at exploiting licensed IPs though...Free League I didn't even consider, they are very good with popular licensed IPs, even have long support for them (Aliens is now in it's 2nd edition). Funny thing is, for LotR they produce two versions, one for 5e and one for their own system. If they did something similar for SW, that would be cool! But have you seen the release tempo of FL? It's slow and limited, the old FFG selection is wider then any FL game...But at this point I think we're not going to see a new pnp RPG publisher for SW. Edge/FFG/Atomic/Asmodee still have a big SW license agreement. And looking at how they just revised the whole Legion miniatures game with all new HIPS plastics kits, they've strongly invested in the SW IP, HIPS plastic kits are expensive to make, this indicates long term investment. When the Games Workshop license was going to lapse, and they didn't intend to renew the license, you saw a decreased output across the board.Message from October 2021:And the announced re-releases of the old books in November 2025: <a href="https://ttrpgfans.com/star-wars-rpg-reprints-asmodee/" target="_blank">Star Wars RPG Returns With Reprints of a Dozen Classic Books</a></blockquote>
