Hey Talisman fans!
Today, we’re proud to officially announce that we’re developing a brand new version of Talisman: Digital Edition, based on the upcoming 5th Edition of the physical board game from Avalon Hill. We’re planning on releasing Talisman: Digital 5th Edition onto Steam later this year, with other platforms to follow. So wishlist it now to stay in the loop!

Check out the official announcement video below (featuring Tom awkwardly talking to the camera!):
When the 5th Edition of Talisman was originally announced back in February of 2024, we were (understandably) swamped by all of you lovely folk asking if we’d be making a new version of Talisman: Digital Edition to match, and we’re very happy to finally confirm that we are. Keeping it a secret while you were all asking us wasn’t easy!
This isn’t going to be a simple case of swapping out artwork and updating some rules though, as we’re going to be bringing a wide range of overhauls and new features to the game, alongside adapting all the changes and updates brought with the physical 5th Edition. Check out some of the early screenshots below to get an idea of what we’ve been working on so far:
You’ll have probably also noticed that last week we announced that the current version of Talisman: Digital Edition was going to be making the transition to free-to-play. You can find out more about that here.
In order to differentiate between the two versions of Talisman that are going to be available once Talisman: Digital 5th Edition launches (that’s right, the current one isn’t going away!), we’re going to be renaming Talisman: Digital Edition to Talisman: Digital Classic Edition. Don't worry though - we’re also going to keep supporting the current version of Talisman: Digital Edition with patches and updates once it becomes Talisman: Digital Classic Edition, and one of the reasons we've made the move to free-to-play is because we'll then be in a better position to roll out updates/support for it.
We can’t wait to share more about Talisman: Digital 5th Edition, so make sure you follow us (and wishlist the game!) for the latest Talisman news. If you’ve got any questions, feel free to reach out via any of our social media channels or directly here in the Steam comments - I'll get to answering you as soon as I can, but it's all a bit mad here right now, so apologies if it takes me a while!
Oh, and if you want to find out more about the physical release of Talisman 5th Edition, you can check it out here!
