Ellen Boehner and Chad Wood of IDW Games talk about developing a new Godzilla RPG for all of us to enjoy. The Kickstarter has already surpassed 200% funding, so a-gaming we shall go!
Ellen is in charge of editorial for the Games division, and Chad is responsible for the design and production side of the games development. They talk about working with Toho on how to bring about a game featuring Godzilla, what that would look at and how the vision for the revived IDW Games would blend more creatively with IDW Publishing.
They also explain the decision to go forward with a card-based system rather than a dice-based system, designing the game mechanics based on a 52-card system while working hand-in-hand with Toho, and more.
Currently, the expected delivery date for “Godzilla: The Roleplaying Game” is October 2026.
