Gehenna Gaming Unveils New Cosmic Horror Mecha3 RPG
Get ready to immerse yourself in the spine-chilling universe of Eldritch Automata, where you’ll pilot colossal mechs and battle abominations threatening humanity. Gehenna Gaming is set to launch their first cosmic horror mecha tabletop RPG on Backerkit on June 25.
A Fusion of Inspirations
Drawing from iconic mecha and psychological horror anime like Neon Genesis Evangelion, RahXephon, and Berserk, along with the thrilling film Pacific Rim and the haunting music of Coheed and Cambria, Eldritch Automata promises an adrenaline-fueled journey. Players will find themselves in control of towering mechs, utilizing their own Egos to combat nightmarish foes.
Exclusive Backer Rewards
The Backerkit campaign offers various tiers for both digital and physical copies of the game. Backers can look forward to three unique styles of dice (acrylic, zinc alloy, and scrap iron), a Game Architect screen, an equipment deck, a Starter Set, and monster and NPC/pre-generated character dossiers. A special leatherette deluxe edition core book and limited opportunities to influence the design of Horrors or Pilots are also up for grabs. Additionally, 1/44 scale Automata weapons crafted by prop masters from the MCU, AMC’s The Walking Dead, and the Arrowverse will be available.
Digital rewards will be distributed via DriveThruRPG and AlchemyRPG. The first stretch goal includes an Alchemy Enhanced Edition.
Early Bird Perks and Exclusive Merchandise
Backers who pledge within the first 48 hours will receive a $10 credit in the pledge manager. All backers will gain access to exclusive First Launch Unit flight patches and T-shirts. Extra t-shirt designs, flight patches, and insignia enamel pins will be available as add-ons.
