To celebrate Shadowrun’s 35th anniversary, travel back to where it all started with this Shadowrun, First Edition reprint!

All the art, text, and tables are there, just as they were in the original printing, but the book has been completely remastered and brought to current printing standards. This reprint is for anyone who wants to remember the book that launched it all!

  • Adheres to the same pagination and layout as original printings.
  • Books are a recreation, not an updating, so they include some of the signature errors that made Shadowrun, First Edition what it was.
  • Re-scanned and updated art will look better than ever on the page.

The Year is 2050

The blending of technology and human flesh began in the late 20th century. Interfacing the human mind with computers was just the first step. Implants that “jack up” reflexes and cybernetic replacements followed quickly. Then came the Awakening. A five-thousand-year lull in the flow of mystical energies subsided, and Magic returned to the world. Elves, Dwarfs, and Trolls assumed their true forms, throwing off their human guise.

In the world of 2050, the megaplexes are monsters casting long shadows. As shadowrunners, that’s where you live, in the cracks between the giant corporate structures. When the megacorps want something done but they don’t want to dirty their hands, it’s a Shadowrun they need, and they come to you. Though your existence is not acknowledged by any governmental or corporate database, the demand for your services is high. You might be a Technomancer, sliding like a whisper through the databases of giant corporations, spiriting away the only thing of real value — information. Or perhaps you are a Street Samurai, an enforcer for hire whose combat skills and reflexes make you the ultimate urban predator. Or perhaps a Mage, one with an ancient gift, the ability to wield and shape the magical energies that now surround the Earth. And that’s exactly the kind of firepower you’ll need if you get hired to make a Shadowrun...
