Eclipse Phase, Second Edition (EP2), is a full-color, hardcover tabletop RPG book. It contains the full rules for making and playing Eclipse Phase characters, four sample teams of four characters each, and detailed setting information—a complete roleplaying game in one book!

Hey backers! A little mid-February update.
In December we released Xenovore digitally, and opened up print pre-orders. Those pre-orders have now shipped, and Xenovore is available in print and PDF from Posthuman.Shop and PDF available on DriveThruRPG!
Early February brought All That Glitters, a political Nano Op, continuing our line of two-page scenarios.
Late last year we revamped our Patreon, primarily using it to push forward small monthly projects that get rolled out to everyone later — All That Glitter is one example! Access the Patreon project at the Proxy level or above to get those projects a month (or more) early. Join up and vote each month on which project we work on!
As always, December and January are slow months with a lot of behind-the-scenes biz work going on. We still made progress on every single one of the remaining stretch goals:
Next time we talk to you, we should be putting Xenovore's Fate into your hands!
Our next Eclipse Phase Second Edition adventure, the Gatecrashing Op Xenovore is now available!
If you backed this Kickstarter project at a level that includes All Digital Stretch Goals or Digital Stretch Goal Pack, Xenovore should already be dispatched to you via email and DriveThruRPG!
The Print + PDF Pre-Order is also open — we aim to ship the print version of Xenovore in January. Add both the Print pre-order and the PDF version to your cart and take the PDF version for free!
And of course, Overrun is available on DriveThruRPG!
A team of xenoarcheologists on exoplanet Vishnu unearths a spectacular find. But the expedition's backer and lead archeologist is more interested in making reality XP recordings than good science. Incautious inquiries lead to an infection risk. If they don't react quickly, the team will need all of their wits to make it back to the Pandora gate amidst a major infection event.
Xenovore is a stand-alone adventure designed for Gatecrashing Ops team.
Troubleshooting
If you do not get the PDF download code and you are a backer that backed at a level or added on for Digital Stretch Goal Pack use this form to re-provide your credentials — it is the way to bring that matter to our attention.
We're in December, which is a busy month due to year-end business stuff, holidays, etc. There are some nagging non-creative tasks that would be really good for us to knock off before the end of the year, so On The Horizon is largely looking towards January and beyond.
We are going to return to writing a Year End Report this year. Have any topics you'd like us to cover, or questions to ask? Drop those questions to [email protected]!
We're looking at some terrible times due to COVID-19, especially in the USA. Please keep yourself, your loved ones, and everyone else as save as possible.
October and November, where did you go? We stuck our fingers in the production schedule spreadsheet pie and got it messy, then got to work cleaning it up.
It's Black Friday, so let's not bury the lede: a bunch of Eclipse Phase stuff is on sale! For today only, the EP2 PDF is $3.99 as part of DriveThruRPG's Doorbusters ensemble. A number of other titles are on sale, and we've even more steeply discounted our big bundles so this weekend is the weekend to complete your Eclipse Phase collection!
If you wanna finish your EP collection and net a custom USB key at the same time, the remaining Eclipse Phase Complete USB keys are on sale at Posthuman.Shop — limited supplies.
Xenovore, one of the stretch goals from this campaign, is available for print pre-order!

The PDF of Xenovore will be released on Wednesday, December 2nd. Kickstarter backers with a pledge level or add on "All Electronic Stretch Goals" will have it delivered on that day, as will everyone who pre-orders the print version!
Xenovore's Fate will follow shortly, both print pre-order and PDF.
Thanks for your support. Please stay safe.
Quick update!
Almost all of the Eclipse Phase Complete USB Keys are on their way to backers and pre-order-ers — and they're starting to arrive in some destinations already, too!
A few people have written in to say that their address has changed since BackerKit was re-locked. Those queries will be dealt with by Friday, October 16th.
Our Project Status page has been updated, to bring it in-line with reality.

Early November, or when Xenovore/Xenovore's Fate is ready — whichever comes first.
