Free League Publishing updated and expanded Alien The Roleplaying Game Evolved Edition, an evolution of the award-winning sci-fi horror tabletop RPG, is finally out now for new and returning fans. Joining the new Core Rulebook are the standalone cinematic adventure Rapture Protocol, the first chapter of a new cinematic trilogy, a redesigned Starter Set, a deluxe Game Mother’s Screen, and a high-quality Miniatures Set.
The Evolved Edition and all of its components are now available through the Free League webshop, hobby stores worldwide, and in PDF format at DriveThruRPG. Virtual Tabletop Modules are available on Roll20 and Demiplane today, with Foundry and Alchemy versions to follow later.
New to the Evolved Edition include the following:

- Revised and expanded core rules for talents, stress and panic, and stealth
- Revised combat rules for armor, ammo, grenades, stuns, skirmishes, and spaceships
- New iconic weapons, items, ships, and locations from Fede Alvarez‘s Alien: Romulus
- Various new rules and tools in high demand from players, including zero gravity, miniatures play support, and expanded campaign play
- “Last Survivor,” a robust solo mode designed by masters of the solo trade, Shawn Tomkin and Matt Click
Built upon feedback from thousands of players over five years of adventures, Alien The Roleplaying Game Evolved Edition sports an updated and streamlined version of the Alien RPG fans know and love. The updated core rules include new artwork, new content, and a variety of new tools for players and Game Mothers alike, all fully compatible with previous releases and game material.
Redesigned as the perfect starting point for newcomers to roleplaying in the Alien universe, the new Evolved Edition of the Starter Set contains everything players need, including abridged rules, character sheets, custom dice, larger miniature-friendly game maps, initiative cards, reference cards, various handouts, tokens, and an expanded Evolved edition of the fan-favorite Hope’s Last Day scenario.
The new cinematic adventure boxed set, Rapture Protocol, returns to the roots of the Alien franchise, featuring the crew of a small star freighter on a resupply run to the remote industrial colony, soon embroiled in a deadly conflict. A new Miniatures Set featuring 28mm scale, high-quality miniatures of soldiers, space truckers, Xenomorphs, and more is designed to bring the events of Rapture Protocol to life, but fully complements other adventures and skirmish battles throughout the Alien RPG series.
