Shadowrun: Lockdown Cover Illustration

We’ve started showing art from the in-development Run Faster, the next core rulebook for Shadowrun. But we’ve got some other great sourcebooks coming down the line real soon, including Lockdown, a sourcebook that develops cross-over plots  between the Shadowrun Tabletop RPG and Shadowrun Online.

Here’s the cover illustration, as well as a quick blurb on its contents.

The voices are getting louder. Strange voices, dissonant voices, sometimes babbling nonsense, sometimes telling stories too unbelievable to be true. People are falling prey to the voices, losing their identities as someone or something else slips into their skin. It’s affecting people at all levels of society, from squatters in burned-out warehouses to corporate CEOs. It’s spreading, and at the moment no one can figure out how to stop it. Boston-based NeoNET is at the center of this storm, which means the panic is spreading through the streets of the northeastern sprawl. People are scared and people are dying, which means that there are large sums of money to be made by any shadowrunner willing to brave those chaotic streets. Finding work won’t be the problem. Getting out of the sprawl, however, will be.

Lockdown is a plot sourcebook for Shadowrun, Fifth Edition with plot hooks, setting details of Boston, character details, and surprising reveals that will keep characters on their toes and running for their lives.
