The Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game (abbreviated MMRPG) is a tabletop role-playing game (RPG) set in the Marvel Universe and designed by Matt Forbeck.[1] The game had its first Playtest Rulebook release April 20, 2022.[2] The Core Rulebook released August 1, 2023.[1]
Game System[edit]
Marvel first introduced their custom d616 Role-Playing System in the Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game: Playtest Rulebook.[3]
Character Creation[edit]
Players may choose to select a pre-developed character sheet of an existing Marvel character or create their own character prior to the beginning of play. Each player that chooses to create their character records their details on a new character sheet. First, a player determines their character's rank, their overall power level between 1 and 6. They select a Backstory and Profession which gives their character Traits that will impact gameplay. Depending on their Rank players will then be able to select an additional amount of Traits and Powers. Players will also be able to put points into different ability scores, consisting of Melee, Agility, Resilience, Vigilance, Ego, and Logic.
Core Mechanic[edit]
The core mechanic involves rolling three six-sided dice with one die being designated as the "Marvel Die." The sum of the three dice are added together and further augmented by character statistics, then compared against a difficulty number. Exceeding or meeting this number means the character achieves their goal, while the opposite means failure. For certain actions, the value of the Marvel Die becomes important, as an example when in combat the value of the Marvel Die is used for damage.
