Monte Cook Games has announced two more sourcebooks for its Numenera roleplaying game line.  Into the Deep and Into the Outside are scheduled to release in 2016, and are currently being funded through a Kickstarter campaign that runs through September 9.

Into the Deep explores the oceans of the Ninth World.  It reveals details of the sea-based empires of the earlier worlds, only hinted at in the Numenera corebook.  The 160-page hardcover will release next spring. 

Into the Outside focuses on those empires of the prior worlds that had control over time and space, and the realms they created outside of normal reality.  The 160-page hardcover will release next fall.

The Kickstarter campaign for the two new books reached its $20,000 funding goal in only one hour, and has raised more than $122,000 dollars of pledged support from 1100 backers as of this writing, with 30 days to go.  The campaign includes two different retailer backer levels which include a retailer promo kit and planned fulfillment before general trade release.

These two sourcebooks will follow Into the Night, scheduled to release next month (see “New Campaign Books for ‘Numenera’ & ‘The Strange’”), which is also being offered as part of the campaign.
