The highly anticipated Zelda and Ghibli-inspired roleplaying game, Twilight Sword, has a confirmed crowdfunding launch date. Creators Two Little Mice, who partnered with Free League Publishing on the ENNIE-winning Outgunned, will bring the new TTRPG to Backerkit on November 20, 2025.

Geek Native has been tracking Twilight Sword since its initial announcement, where its distinct Final Fantasy and classic JRPG vibes caught our readers’ attention. Today’s news confirms the project is moving forward and provides a first look at the game’s contents.
In Twilight Sword, players take on the role of Champions tasked with restoring Hope to the Lands of Radia. The world has been plunged into Despair by a scourge known as Vardas. The quest will ultimately lead the heroes to the Fortress of Evil, where they must confront Vardas to decide Radia’s fate.
The Backerkit campaign is set to fund several key products, which Two Little Mice have detailed:
- Core Rulebook: This book will contain all the rules for creating a Champion, including 5 Kin, 6 Ways, and a comprehensive list of Feats and equipment. It also includes the game’s complete rules and an introduction to the world of Radia.
- Lands of Radia: This volume serves as the game guide, containing secrets, advanced rules, a bestiary of monsters, legendary weapons, and pre-written adventures.
- Card Chest: A box containing over 200 cards to assist gameplay. This includes Monster Cards, Boss Cards, 25 Map Cards designed to be revealed during exploration, and Weapon Cards for items found in the game.
- Starter Set: A boxed set designed to get players started immediately. It includes a booklet with basic rules, an introductory mini-campaign, seven polyhedral dice (including two D12s), four pre-made Champion sheets, and a new location, Twilight Island.


Ahead of the November 20 launch, potential backers can follow the project on its Backerkit pre-launch page. Following the page grants immediate access to a free preview of the game, which is available in both English and Italian.
Additionally, Two Little Mice is offering a pre-launch exclusive. By reserving a spot for €1 now, backers who pledge during the campaign will receive a limited set of Household Weapon Cards. The studio states these cards will not be available during the main campaign itself.
