Shadowrun: Hong Kong

Harebrained Schemes | Released 2015

HONG KONG. A stable and prosperous port of call in a sea of chaos, warfare, and political turmoil. The Hong Kong Free Enterprise Zone is a land of contradictions - it is one of the most successful centers of business in the Sixth World, and home to one of the world’s most dangerous sprawl sites. A land of bright lights, gleaming towers, and restless spirits where life is cheap and everything is for sale.

Shadowrun: Hong Kong is the third standalone game in Harebrained Schemes’ critically-acclaimed Shadowrun cRPG series. Experience the most impressive Shadowrun RPG yet with an all new crew, expanded magic and cyberware, a completely revamped Matrix, an upgraded release of the Shadowrun Editor, and much more!

New in Shadowrun: Hong Kong , thanks to our generous Kickstarter Backers:

Revamped Matrix art and gameplay!
Illustrated transition animatics that play at key moments in the story.
Enhanced sound, and dynamic combat music that ebbs and flows.
Rebuilt Inventory UI and easier management of items in-mission.
All-new Cyberware skill-tree and new Cyberweapons that can be installed to your character’s arms.
The ability to enter turn-based combat mode as soon as an enemy is in view.

Shadowrun: Hong Kong Features

A Classic, Story-Driven cRPG: Shadowrun: Hong Kong hearkens back to the golden age of computer RPG’s with a novel-like branching narrative full of sharp prose and deep character development. Immerse yourself in a smart, 15+ hour campaign with a diverse cast of all-too-human characters.

A One-of-a-Kind Cyberpunk Setting: Experience the unique “Tech meets Magic” dystopian future of Shadowrun, a fan-favorite game setting now celebrating it’s 25th anniversary. Shadowrun: Hong Kong is a perfect entry point to the setting for those with no prior Shadowrun experience, while providing plenty of classic Shadowrun characters and tech for veteran players to sink their teeth into.

Command Your Team: Just like Dragonfall, Shadowrun: Hong Kong features a crew of flawed, dangerous runners with backstories that could only be possible in the tech-meets-magic Shadowrun setting. The members of your team are designed to play contrasting roles during missions, and each has a distinct set of skills, abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. Each team member also has challenges to face in their own lives, which you can choose to brush aside or play an important part in.

Gripping, Turn-Based Tactical Combat: When you’re running the shadows, every turn matters. Choose your actions wisely - move to better cover, charge into melee, or lob a fireball into a crowd of enemies. With over 200 weapons and spells at your disposal, every turn is filled with meaningful choices.

Skill-Based Character Progression: Choose a starting character archetype and build from there! Street Samurai and Physical Adepts use advanced combat skills to dominate the battlefield, Shamans and Mages summon powerful allies and cast deadly spells, while Riggers and Deckers provide critical technological support, projecting their consciousness directly into drones and computer systems. Shadowrun: Hong Kong’s classless skill system allows you to grow your character in any direction you choose.

Shadowrun Trilogy Comes To Consoles; 5 Fantastical Shadowrun Mods

Jun 23 2022 Feature

Shadowrun's cyberpunk-meets-fantasy world has been fondly received on PC, tabletop, and classic consoles for many years, but now, the modern trilogy is going to console - allowing Playstation, Xbox, and Switch players to take part in the world themselves. The games have received their own nuggets of great UGC since release, so here's five mods PC players looking for a reason to celebrate too can get invested in!

Brothers to the End

By Brachra2055

Brothers to the end is a prequel to the Sega Genesis version of Shadowrun, as well as a sequel to the SNES Shadowrun. It's an attempt to bridge the two games together, as well as tell a unique Shadowrun story. The game is a love letter to those games and those fond memories had as a GM on Friday nights with friends. Search everywhere, you never know what you'll find or who you'll run into. There is also no manual upgrading, instead the characters level up and gain new skills as they go.

Good Intentions

By Usagi9

Kairo, year 2056. Your ex-fixer ditched your team, and your lives have been hell ever since. A mysterious offer arrives that could pull you from the depths of all your struggles. But in all your years of experience as a Shadow Runner, you have never seen such an unconventional job! Drop in the middle of a thrilling and mysterious adventure, set in Kairo - Egypt, 2056, where Magic meets Technology.

Training Room and Testing Arena

By Firesnakearies

In this mod, your character (either newly generated or imported) can receive the specific amount of Karma and Nuyen you desire, access your stash, eliminate any excess Karma/Nuyen if you wish, and shop at a variety of merchants for gear. Then you can enter the Arena, where numerous combat testing options are available. The vendors are very well-stocked with all levels of equipment, including all of the available guns modded with either smartlinks or silencers. They also carry a larger supply of grenades, medkits, and bound spirit fetishes than the normal merchants in game do. Combat drugs are for sale as well in large quantities. There is also a vendor who sells all of the weapons, cyberware, and outfits from the latest version of Tracker's Street Samurai Catalog pack.

The Hard Drive

By Lugoffo

A quick mission from a corp offers you a large sum for what they are calling "a simple job". Clearly it can't be that simple, right? Features lots of extended dialogue for new characters, combat that tests you on the base game's mechanics, music from the game chosen selectively, new NPCs, a revised shop, missions with different outcomes, different areas, loot, flavour text and more!

Better Dayz

By CastorVega

Your days as a Shadowrunner have come to an end. You have made it to retirement which few Runners ever do. You finally have the Uptown high class apartment you always dreamed of as well as a matching bank account. YET today of all days everything you have is taken away from you by an unknown hacker without any provocation. Mr. Kool he calls himself. He took from you and soon he won't be calling himself anything. It's time to get back in the game and take down this Mr. Kool! Here's to BETTER DAYZ! Recommendations: Invest Karma in pistols and rifles!

Running Darkly

Shadowrun is a franchise originating from tabletop RPGs a-la Dungeons and Dragons. Melding fantasy and cyberpunk together with high-tech societies and magic gone wrong, it has since been adapted in numerous formats and made into a few games on older consoles. The reboot, Shadowrun Returns, was one of the top-funded Kickstarter games ever, and began a trilogy of well-received titles published by Paradox Interactive. Originally releasing on PC, the games have now been ported to consoles to give more players a chance to engage with the games.

The New Trio

The games are newly available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 as trilogy collections, nabbing you all three in one go. With a healthy UGC scene, console players will be missing out if a way to pursue UGC within the Shadowrun titles on console is not implemented.
