IDW Games is running a (seemingly quite successful) Kickstarter campaign to raise money for an official/licensed GodzillaTTRPG [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/idwgames/godzilla-the-roleplaying-game]. Who knew? From what I can see, IDW’s games line has only done tabletop board games up to now. For this official Godzilla TTRPG, they have engaged established Warhammer 40k game designers, and unsurprisingly have overshot their minimum requirement for pledges. The pledge campaign will run until Thursday, April 2, 2026. There are various pledge tiers that will provide backers anything from just a digital copy to ones that have a hardbound book and/or a box set, playing cards, playing mat, and even a new sculpt Godzilla figurine.

Well known comic publisher IDW, is getting into official/licensed TTRPG’s with a forthcoming Godzilla TTRPG funded by a Kickstarter campaign that’s already well surpassed its pledge objective.

From what I can see, IDW’s games line has only done tabletop board games up to now, and has relied on Kickstarter to create momentum as well as raise funds.

Star Trek Adventures, and other franchise TTRPGs, are published by UK-based Modiphius Entertainment. It sounds like IDW is trying to establish itself as a competitor.
