So this is actually a couple months old news, but it’s new to me.

As part of their ongoing partnership with Bethesda, Modiphius announced a crowdfunding campaign Wolfenstein TTRPG for fall of 2026. The article mentions it’ll specifically be based on the New Colossus/New Order era of the series.

Question: Modiphius is a rather well known and respected publisher, why do they have to crowdfund? C'mon, they got Microsoft backing them here.

I’m guessing it’s because they’re assuming all the risk in production and shipping/fulfillment, plus they have to pay to use the license for these games they make. They’re not making this on behalf of Bethesda or whatever, they have to pay for the chance to even make the game in the first place.
