Hasbro’s Avalon Hill teased a Third Edition of the classic horror tabletop game Betrayal at House on the Hill last month, and today they provided additional details on what longtime fans and newcomers can expect from the updated version. Unlike the second edition and spin-off editions of the game, the core Betrayal at House on the Hill experience is getting a refresh this time around. Details are available below, along with pre-order links and an image gallery.
Buy Betrayal at House on the Hill 3rd Edition at Entertainment Earth ($55.99)
In Betrayal at House on the Hill, you and your friends will explore a creepy old house where evil might lurk in any room. The more you explore, the higher the odds are of triggering the haunt. In the midst of the chaos that ensues, one player will turn against the rest of the party, and it will become a battle of survival. For starters, the Third Edition features updated art and unpainted miniatures, but the most interesting updates involve the gameplay. Hasbro notes:
“We’ve also moved away from the Haunt matrix that determined how the game would twist and change when the Haunt was rolled. Instead, players now choose a Scenario card that reflects why their characters have come to the house. When the Haunt is rolled, players will compare the Omen drawn to a chart on the back of the Scenario card to determine which Haunt will be played.
Many other changes have been made, including 50 unique and original haunts, house features with modern touches (such as spotty cell service… the horror!), a Reluctant Traitor rule, and numerous items, omens, and events original to this version of the Betrayal at House on the Hill game.”
If you’re interested in giving Betrayal at the House on the Hill 3rd Edition a try, pre-orders are live here at Entertainment Earth now for $55.99 with a release date set for August.
