The details have been unleashed, and it’s a fascinating beast
World of Darkness tabletop RPGs brim with intelligent, subversive reimaginings of horror archetypes. Its compelling mythos helped vamp-punky RPG Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines grow into a cult classic on PC, and now Werewolf: The Apocalypse is taking us back to that world, heading inland from the sleaze of Bloodlines’ West Coast to a US wilderness eroded by corporate greed.
Werewolf is set in a series of hubs dotted around US states like Nevada, California and Arizona. Each of these areas are being exploited for natural resources by Pentex, a megacorporation corrupted by an entity known as the Wyrm. If you’ve heard anything about the original pen-and-paper RPG, you’ll know that it’s effectively raising a green finger to capitalism.
