Darrington Press’s anticipated TTRPG system, Dagger Heartis now available for pre-order. The new system — written in part by Critical Role’s Matthew Mercer — is finally heading to press after a free open beta period. Darrington Press hasn’t announced an exact release date, but has landed on a spring 2025 launch window for the Dagger Heart Core Set. The Core Set comes in two flavors: a $59.99 basic setor a more extensive one €149.99 limited editionBelow you will find the contents of both sets, along with links to Darrington Press if you would like to reserve your copy now.
While Dagger Heart turns out to be a bit heavier on the math than a system like D&D, we were impressed by Dagger Heart‘s intuitive character and world-building systems during our time with the Open Beta. The final version of the game is likely to be a very different beast compared to the beta. However, if you’d like to learn more about the game before you pre-order, the Open Beta playtest is still available to download for free from DriveThruRPG And Darrington Press.
