Earlier this year, we announced the upcoming release of the Star Wars®: Edge of the Empire™ Core Rulebook. The first of three standalone roleplaying systems, the Edge of the Empire Core Rulebook invites players to experience the thrills and adventures of life on the outskirts and the fringes of the Star Wars galaxy.

When we first announced Edge of the Empire, we projected a release date sometime in the second quarter of 2013. However, a minor delay has required that we alter the release date slightly. The Star Wars: Edge of the Empire Core Rulebook, Roleplay Dice pack, and Game Master’s Kit will now be on sale the first week in July.

Adventure on the Outer Rim

We’re confident that you’ll find Edge of the Empire well worth the wait. With stories focusing on a part of the Star Wars universe not commonly explored, this 448-page hardcover book offers an innovative game system that lets you ply your trade as a smuggler in the Outer Rim, collect bounties on the scum that live in the shadows of Coruscant, or try to establish a new colony on a planet beneath the Empire’s notice. In Edge of the Empire, every character has a past worth a story, your every step can lead to riches or peril, and you can visit the shadiest and most remote locations in the Star Wars universe.
