Green Ronin has announced that it will release the 3rd edition of its superhero roleplaying game Mutants & Masterminds this fall.  The new edition will use the same rule set as its upcoming DC RPG DC Adventures, due out in August (see “Alex Ross Cover”). 

The new edition will be the first since 2005.  It will “simplify some elements of the system and fix known issues, while retaining the flexibility and fast-paced play fans have enjoyed,” designer Steve Kenson said. 

The first M&M product for 3rd Edition will be the Mutants & Masterminds Hero’s Handbook, a full color core rulebook.
