They may be done with the game, but the game isn’t done with them, as Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans are back with Die: Loaded at Image Comics.
A year after the hellish game world events of Die #20, the players reunite in Die: Loaded to gather for Chuck’s wake. They’ve finished with the game. But the game isn’t finished with them. Get ready to roll initiative. Who’s going to DIE this time?
“DIE was created by us to talk about fantasy and reality, for as long as we have stories to tell. Suffice to say, we do, and DIE: Loaded exactly how much else we have to share, to delight, move and horrify you,” said Gillen in a press release. “Plus it’s also important for DIE that we give other people a chance to tell their stories. It’s why we wrote the RPG, and with the Quickstart, we want to let even more people in on the party.”
Hans added: “As an artist, it is such a unique to come back and expand a universe in which we poured so much love. Die is an ever extending work of art and I have the privilege to shape it alongside Kieron.”
Alongside this spectacular new issue, will be The Die RPG Quickstart Game Guide,by Gillen and Hans—released simultaneously in November—for fans interested in trying out the Origin Award winning Die RPG in a standalone and inexpensive format. It includes everything needed to play—rules, characters and a multi-session scenario fans need to play. Just add dice, friends, and a desire to get sucked into a game.
Die: Loaded #1 arrives on November 12, 2025.
