RPG: ‘Call of Cthulhu’s 50th Anniversary Slipcase Set – A “Complete Experience”

Chaosium has opened up preorders for the Call of Cthulhu 50th Anniversary Slipcase Set, calling it “the complete experience.”

D&D isn’t the only one celebrating a 50th anniversary these days. Chaosium is having its 50th birthday bash this year, celebrating 50 years of RPG greatness, from RuneQuest and Glorantha to Call of Cthulhu and its deep waters full of eldritch horrors. As part of the celebration, Chaosium is releasing a special 50th Anniversary Slipcase Set featuring new artwork in a gorgeous collectible. Now you can descend into Arkham in style.

Chaosium’s 50th Anniversary Call Of Cthulhu Slipcase Set – Pre-Order Now

This is one for the Cthulhu collectors out there. Or if you’re someone who’s been tempted to try the game, this is a way to snag the whole set with stunning new artwork. It’s not a new edition – nor even a new setting; you’ll find the classic 1920’s New England setting described in detail with its twists, turns, dark alleys, and darker rituals.

But the new artwork is amazing. Each of the core rulebooks gets an updated cover, and there’s a new Keeper Screen pack with a stunning new GM screen, so you can keep those secrets well hidden. Until it’s too late.

“The Call of Cthulhu Keeper Rulebook, Investigator Handbook, and Keeper Screen Pack are brought together in a premium collector’s slipcase, with all new cover art by acclaimed Swedish artist Ola Larsson to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Chaosium.

Playing the role of steadfast investigators, you travel to strange and dangerous places, uncover foul plots, and stand against the terrors of the Cthulhu Mythos. You encounter sanity-blasting entities, monsters, and insane cultists. Within strange and forgotten tomes of lore you discover revelations that humanity was not meant to know.”

The slipcase set is open for preorder now, but it’s not going to ship until 2026. However, you will get a PDF copy of the books delivered to you for free as well, so you can start using them right away if this is your “jump aboard” moment.

Either way, it’s going to be real exciting in another five or so years when Call of Cthulhu celebrates its 50th anniversary. Hopefully we’ll all still be here, trying to uncover eldritch truths!

Look for Chaosium’s Call of Cthulhu 50th Anniversary Slipcase set early next year!
