MAN MEETS MAGIC & MACHINE. The year is 2054. Magic has returned to the world and has brought powerful creatures from myths and legends to life. Technology blends with body and consciousness. Elves, trolls, orcs and dwarves walk among us, while unscrupulous corporations bleed the world dry. You are a Shadowrunner - a mercenary on the fringes of society who fights day after day in the shadows of huge corporate arcologies with instinct and skill to survive. When the powerful or the desperate have an assignment, you do it by all means ... by all means.

In the urban hustle and bustle of the Seattle Metroplex, the search for a mysterious killer leads you on a trail that leads from the darkest slums of the city to the most powerful megacorporations. To survive the shadow world of Seattle unscathed, you'll need to be careful, rely on the help of other runners, and master the powerful powers of technology and magic.

Since its creation nearly 25 years ago, Shadowrun's unique world of cyberpunk and fantasy has gained immense cult status. Now the creator Jordan Weisman returns to the world of Shadowrun and transforms the classic game setting into a turn-based tactical RPG for single players.

Features:

• Captivating tactical battles: Every single move counts in the shadows. Think carefully about your actions - take cover, storm into close combat or throw a fireball into the enemy crowd. Thanks to a variety of weapons and spells at your disposal, every turn can be decisive. A successful run requires not only a team of runners, but also the right balance of combat, tech, and magic skills.
• Skill-based character development: Choose a character archetype at the beginning and develop it further! Street Samurais and Physical Adepts dominate the battlefield with advanced combat skills, Shamans and Mages summon powerful allies and use deadly spells, while Riggers and Deckers provide important technological support by projecting their consciousness directly into drones and computer systems. Thanks to Shadowrun Returns' classless skill system, you can develop your character in any direction. Want to be an orc shaman, summon ghosts and then become a cyber weapon specialist? Go for it!
• Exciting 2D/3D graphic style: Shadowrun Returns combines dynamic 3D characters and lighting effects with a vibrant, hand-drawn environment. Drawn character portraits breathe life into any entertainment. Explore a world full of details, from the slums of the Redmond Barrens to the extravagant offices of powerful corporations.
