The Shadowrun trilogy comprises 3 iconic tactical RPG games set in a dystopian cyberpunk future where magic has awakened and high fantasy creatures have been brought back to life. Originally created as a tabletop role-playing game over 30 years ago, this unique setting has garnered a massive cult following over the past three decades. Shadowrun Returns Shadowrun’s unique cyberpunk-meets-fantasy world has garnered a huge following since its inception over 30 years ago. Almost 10 years ago, creator Jordan Weisman returned to the world of Shadowrun and modernized this classic game setting as a single-player turn-based tactical RPG. The search for a mysterious killer leads you across the sprawling metropolis of Seattle on a trail that will take you from the city’s darkest slums to the city’s most powerful mega-corporations. You must tread carefully, enlist the help of other runners, and master powerful forces of technology and magic to emerge unscathed from the shadows of Seattle. Shadowrun Dragonfall – Director’s Cut In 2012, magic returned to our world, awakening powerful creatures from myth and legend. Among them was the Great Dragon, Feuerwing, who appeared without warning from the mountains of Germany, unleashing fire, death, and untold destruction across the land. It took German forces almost four months to finally shoot them down – and when they did, their victory became known as Der Drachenfallen. It’s 42 years later – 2054 – and the world has changed. Unchecked technological progress has blurred the line between man and machine. Elves and trolls walk among us, ruthless corporations bleed the world dry, and Firewing’s reign of terror is a distant memory. Germany is fragmented – a stable anarchy called “Flux State” dominates the city of Berlin. It’s a place where power is fleeting, almost anything is possible, and the right connections can mean the difference between success and hunger. There’s no better place for you and your team of battle-hardened shadowrunners to earn a quick payday. Now a new threat is emerging that could bring untold chaos and devastation. One that will soon put you and your team on the wrong side of a deadly conspiracy. The only clue: Whispers of Dragonfall. Rumors that the Great Dragon Firewing might still be alive and waiting for the right moment to return… Shadowrun Hong Kong – Extended Edition HONG KONG. A stable and thriving port of call in a sea of chaos, war and political unrest. The Hong Kong Free Trade Zone is a land of contradictions – it is one of the most prosperous business centers in the Sixth World and home to one of the world’s most dangerous urban sprawls. A land of bright lights, shimmering towers, and restless spirits, where life is cheap and everything is for sale. As an ex-convict living in Seattle, you’re trying to earn an honest living, but when your caretaker begs you to meet him in China, things turn murky and you find out the police are trying to arrest you. And with arrest, they want to kill you right away! Build your team of shadowrunners, mercenaries with big personalities who can fight with mystical or technical powers, and turn the tables against the elite corporations and the police. Through real-time exploration and turn-based action, you will face deadly conspiracies, corporate greed, triads, social segregation and gang warfare.
