For more than forty years, Chaosium (kay-oss-eum) has captivated gamers, readers, and mythic adventurers worldwide. One of their best-known releases - Call of Cthulhu - is a horror-themed role-playing game (RPG) that has been awarded more than 70 awards since its launch in the early ’80s! We’re proud to announce that content from this mythical world will soon be coming to VeVe!

Call of Cthulhu uses the Basic Role-Playing system, initially developed for RuneQuest and later refined for Call of Cthulhu. It combines a system of player characters with particular skills, an evolving storyline based on the progression of the game, and percentile dice to determine the outcome of a particular action or event within the game.

Unlike other RPG’s, it is not unusual for players of Call of Cthulhu to die in horrific circumstances or end up in an asylum, and players must work to obtain tools to defeat the horrors at the expense of their own sanity. In Call of Cthulhu, there are guarantees that players will eventually triumph over the forces of horror!

“Call of Cthulhu is an iconic horror roleplaying game which has captured fans and readers dating back to 1981. After 40 years, VeVe is proud to bring that cosmic horror to the digital world!”

— David Yu, CEO, VeVe

These photo-realistic collectibles come in a range of colorways, for those wanting to add some eerie ambiance to their Showrooms.

“We are pleased to partner with VeVe and Type40 to explore this new way to share our games and stories in the ever-expanding digital realm, especially in an environmentally friendly way.”

— Chaosium VP of Licensing Michael O’Brien
