Coming Soon From Monte Cook Games!

We’ve never been ones to sit back and rest when we’ve finished with one project. There are too many incredible ideas to pursue. Here’s a sneak peek at new products and publications being worked on by Monte Cook Games for future release!

Please note that due to supply chain and freight issues, release plans are constantly subject to adjustment.

OLD GODS OF APPALACHIA XP DECK
March

In the Cypher System, players earn, use, and exchange experience points during play, and XP cards are a simple but useful tool at the game table. These beautiful cards are tailored specifically for the Old Gods of Appalachia Roleplaying Game, and feature evocative art and quotes from the source material.

WEIRD DECK
March

Great ideas and interesting twists sometimes benefit from a little spur-of-the-moment inspiration. Need to keep the pace of your game moving while adding some weird into the mix? With the Weird Deck you can generate ideas on the fly. Draw a card, or draw three or four and see which idea clicks for you!

CYPHER SYSTEM XP DECK
March

In the Cypher System, players earn XP for making discoveries, facing unexpected challenges-and, most colorfully, from GM intrusions. And they spend XP not just to advance their characters, but to reroll dice, enact player intrusions, and other at-the-table activities—so XP trades hands fairly often during play. This striking new deck gives you a set of handy tokens to represent XP, and each card features art from across the breadth of the Cypher System.

GLIMMERING SITES DECK
April

Dozens of vivid Ninth World sites are beautifully illustrated in this set of oversized cards that takes its inspiration from The Glimmering Valley. Inspire your players, or yourself, with detailed images of these locations. Whether you’re running events from The Glimmering Valley, or just want to illustrate your game with some awe-inspiring imagery from the book, this deck gives you a big selection of cool places to show off.

CYPHER SYSTEM BESTIARY
May

What could every Cypher System campaign use? Why, dozens and dozens of brand-new creatures of course! True to the breadth of the game’s possibilities, creatures here fit into many different genres—and they’re presented in a unique new style that showcases not just the basics, but everything you really need to use them—maps of lairs, sample organizations, adventure frameworks, goals and schemes, names for individuals, equipment loadouts, pets, and more.

INVISIBLE SUN
May

The legendary Black Cube is coming back into print! Wield fabulous powers as you uncover the secrets of reality itself in this masterwork roleplaying game of surreal fantasy, secrets, and magic that is truly magical.

THE MAGNUS ARCHIVES ROLEPLAYING GAME
