If you have ever finished a Zelda game and wished you could keep exploring that world with friends around a table, Twilight Sword is aimed squarely at you. The Zelda-inspired tabletop RPG from Italian studio Two Little Mice and Sweden's Free League has just gone live in digital form, so you can start playing this weekend.

Start organising for freeTwilight Sword wears its influences proudly. It draws on The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, with a dash of Final Fantasy and the warm, hand-painted feel of Studio Ghibli. You play Champions adventuring across the land of Radia, and the design aims to stay rules-light and welcoming, in the spirit of Free League's own Mörk Borg, while keeping enough crunch that combat and progression still bite. Free League is the studio behind a shelf of acclaimed roleplaying games, so this is a heavyweight backer for a smaller designer's passion project.
The digital release is available now on DriveThruRPG, covering the core rulebook, the Lands of Radia setting book, cards and a GM screen, with a complete bundle running to around $50 (£37). The physical version is where it gets tempting: a starter set arriving in October 2026, packed into a treasure-chest box with a rules booklet, an introductory mini-campaign, seven polyhedral dice including two twelve-siders, six ready-made Champion sheets, more than 60 cards and a pile of tokens.
