Renegade Game Studios Announces Anne Rice’s Immortal Universe RPG

Gothic horror fans and tabletop gamers, rejoice! Renegade Game Studios has officially partnered with AMC Global Media to bring the dark, decadent world of Anne Rice to your gaming table. The upcoming tabletop roleplaying game (TTRPG) line, titled Anne Rice’s Immortal Universe RPG, will adapt iconic lore from television adaptations like Interview with the Vampire and Mayfair Witches.

Whether you want to play as a centuries-old vampire, a powerful witch, a gifted psychic, or a human caught in the web of the supernatural, this new game line promises a deeply immersive gothic storytelling experience.

Key Gameplay Mechanics to Watch For

Renegade isn’t just delivering a new setting—they’re building game mechanics tailored specifically to the themes of immortal drama, deep memory, and tragic beauty:

Chronicle-Style Storytelling Across Eras: The game’s engine allows players to navigate different historical eras as their characters progress through the Immortal Universe timeline.
The Flashback System: Need to explain how your character acquired a specific skill or dynamic? Players can jump back in time to relive pivotal past moments that directly impact their current chronicle.
Narrative “Rewrite” Mechanics: A collaborative storytelling feature lets players briefly seize narrative control to dramatically alter key moments in the plot.
Triple Damage Tracks: Reflecting the physical, emotional, and psychological toll of immortal existence, health is tracked across three distinct categories.
Identity-Based Healing: In a unique twist on recovery, characters heal not through standard resting or items, but by reconnecting with their true core identity.

What’s Coming First?

The inaugural releases for the Immortal Universe RPG line will focus heavily on Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire.

Release Details: The crowdfunding campaign for the initial book lineup is set to launch on BackerKit in Fall 2026. Keep your eyes on the shadows for pre-launch updates
