News Post: Renegade Game Studios Extends Partnership With Hasbro: G.I. Joe, Transformers, And My Little Pony
Their power rangers game was REALLY good, this is great news and their press release says they are working on games for these properties. So heck yea, new GI Joe board/card games!
I watched some of the live streams from the Renegade Games virtual con, and they had some more info.
It looks like we can expect AT LEAST 2 different GI Joe games:
1. a Deck Building Game. VERY exciting. I will probably wear out the cards in this game. I really, really like deck building games, and a GI Joe one could be super fun! Hints from the company include: Snake-Eyes, Scarlett, Deep Six, and the SHARC!
2. a Roll Playing Game using the 5th Edition rules from D&D. Don't know how often I would play this, but still - exciting to see GI Joe getting some attention.
3? They didn't say that GI Joe would ONLY get those 2 types of games. It is possible that we could see a game like Power Rangers: Heroes of the Grid for GI Joe. I'd love to see that, too!
What are your hopes for the games?
