HERO Games has announced the October publication of the Revised version of the HERO System Fifth Edition core rulebook.  The Revised Fifth Edition will correct typos and errata from the original Fifth Edition printing, but it will also contain lots of new content including a new chapter, 'The HERO System Genre By Genre' with sample characters and rules for applying the HERO Rules to other genres.  Also available in the new edition are important new 'Power Modifiers' and 'Adders' featured in supplements over the past three years, better art and layout, and all the Rules FAQ answers that the folks at HERO Games could fit in.

The HERO System Fifth Edition Revised will be published as a 450-page, perfect bound hardcover with a retail price of $49.99.
