Welcome to Night Vale RPG was unveiled at Renegade's media event at Gen Con 2023 (see "'Welcome to Night Vale Roleplaying Game'"). It is based on a podcast, by Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor, that takes places in the fictional town of Night Vale where a radio broadcast tells the tales of mysteries and supernatural conspiracies.
"For over a decade, Jeffrey and I have been building the world of Night Vale with our podcast, touring live shows, and novels," said Joseph Fink about the new game. "Now we cannot wait for people to finally get to step into that world themselves, and start telling their own stories about a weird little desert town."
In the RPG, players can use a pre-generated character or create a citizen to portray in this world. The game will include all the rules and guidelines for players to fully immerse themselves in Night Vale.
