If you've previously backed the Shadowrun Returns Kickstarter, go ahead and check your inbox. Developer HareBrained Schemes has begun sending out Dragonfall keys to backers and those that ordered the Shadowrun Returns Collector's Edition, in anticipation of the DLC campaign's release on February 27.
Start polishing your PVC trousers and oiling your neon green quiff, as the Shadowrun Returns DLC campaign Dragonfall will be here in one month. Developer HareBrained Schemes has revealed the adventure set in Berlin through screenshots and a first trailer, announcing that it'll launch on February 28.
HareBrained Schemes' Kickstarter success, Shadowrun Returns, was originally slated to receive a round of DLC back in October, but was delayed to become a full-length campaign. The studio has now pulled the curtain back on the beefed-up Berlin expansion, calling it Shadowrun: Dragonfall.
No true decker would be caught dead using Winblow$ or Appl€ products recreationally, so it's only fitting that Shadowrun Returns should come to Linux. It arrived yesterday alongside the cyberpunk-fantasy RPG's patch 1.1, which brings changes including reworking the Physical Adepts class's Chi abilities.
As a true cyberpunk, for computing on the go I carry a keyboard strapped across my back. For weekend cyberwarriors unwilling to commit to life on the edge, look, I don't know, you can now play Shadowrun Returns on those silly little tablets you're so fond of. Harebrained Schemes' retro RPG today launched on iOS and Android at $9.99. Amateurs.
"Oh? So soon?" some wondered about Shadowrun Returns's Berlin DLC aiming for a late October launch. "So it's not that big, then?" Which set developer HareBrained Schemes a-thinking: why not? It's now delayed the DLC into January to make it bigger and richer.
Shadowrun Returns may be out for PC and Mac (I completed it over the weekend: I liked the bit where I got a rad roboarm), but oh, there's still so much to do. Developer HareBrained Schemes dropped a dev update on Friday, with news on its Linux, iOS and Android versions, as well as the Berlin add-on campaign that'll be free to backers.
This week's Weeeknd Confirmed opens with host Garnett Lee welcoming in "Indie" Jeff Mattas and Nikole Zivalich to briefly discuss Nintendo's recent financials and where the company goes from here. Discussion turns to Shadowrun Returns and Bioshock Infinite's newly-announced DLC offerings. And in the second hour, it's the return of the king. The newly-engaged Jeff Cannata returns from the land of kangaroos and wallabies to tell tales of his time in Australia and go right back to loving to love things. The four-person crew takes a quick look at the state of gaming journalism before sending you into the weekend with a new cornucopia of Finishing Moves.
The Kickstarter for Shadowrun Returns blasted through its goals on the back of an audience that loved the pen & paper franchise, and had fond memories of the SNES and Sega Genesis adaptations from the early 1990s. Developer Harebrained Schemes faced a daunting task of keeping those fans happy by delivering a game that stayed true to the lore and the rules of the P&P game, while rekindling what made the old games great. The result is a triumphant return to the classic days of old-school computer RPGs.
It's been some time since I played in the Shadowrun world, but it didn't take long to get re-acquainted with the rules because of the simple way character creation is handled. It is easy to jump in and begin a session: make a few basic decisions about how you want to play the game and you are immediately dumped into a gritty, seedy cyberpunk Seattle to investigate the death of a former Shadowrunner pal.
Oh, it's finally almost here! Another big Kickstarter success story, cyberpunk RPG Shadowrun Returns will launch next Thursday, and here's the launch trailer to get us even more excited than we already are.
Harebrained Schemes is on the verge of releasing the crowdfunded Shadowrun Returns. The game ships with a fully fleshed-out game editor. To learn more about the editor and other aspects of the long-awaited revival, Shacknews spoke to Shadowrun game designer, Jordan Weisman.
Shadowrun Returns brings with it an adventurous and speculative look at the future, just as the series always has. However, the future, as envisioned by the 90's versions of Shadowrun is very different from the future envisioned today. So how does developer HareBrained Schemes' vision of Shadowrun reconcile the evolving views of what the future is?
Harebrained Schemes is bringing its successfully crowdfunded cyberpunk fantasy world Shadowrun Returns to PC and tablets on July 25, a little later than originally planned. But, as promised, the developer is including a nice little bonus: all the campaign files to go with the game's editor.
Shadowrun Returns is just around the corner, marking one of the first releases of a game that went well above its crowd-funding goal. This is the time to get into the nitty-gritty, and the HareBrained team has detailed the two major pillars of the character builder: portraits, and in-game models with gear.
Cyberspace was cut from the original design for Shadowrun Returns to keep the crowdfunded RPG at a reasonable scale and budget, but what's cyberpunk with a virtual world? After tossing out loads of ideas, developer HareBrained Schemes has finally found a way to make the Matrix work, albeit less vast than in the tabletop RPG.
