GamesRadar+ can exclusively reveal that Modiphius, the studio responsible for tabletop adaptations of Star Trek, Fallout, and more, is working on a Discworld TTRPG.
Having secured the rights to the beloved series with an agreement from the late author Sir Terry Pratchett’s estate, Modiphius is already at work on a Discworld roleplaying game “around the city of Ankh-Morpork and the wider Disc.” This will hit Kickstarter later in the year.
Dubbed ‘Terry Pratchett’s Discworld: Adventures in Ankh-Morpork,’ it’s the first tabletop RPG to use that setting in almost 30 years. (To be precise, Discworld’s last pen-and-paper outing was in 1998.) While it’s unclear whether this version will use a new system or utilize one from the best tabletop RPGs, Modiphius promises “to publish tabletop games that honor the humor, satire, and darkly entertaining fantasy series.”

A premade adventure and campaign setting (maybe with a limited class/race set) built on an existing ruleset could be really cool. Not sure this would sell enough to be worth a brand new ruleset?
That’s my guess. Modiphius have a lot of experience with franchise RPGs and there’s really no need to reinvent the wheel each time, so I assume they’ll pick a relevant system and give it a Discworld skin.
