Talisman: Digital 5th Edition News

Shape the Future of Talisman!

Hi Talisman fans! ːBlueTalismanː

Following the launch of our first batch of remastered Classic characters (check out all the details here if you missed that!) and the release of the demo for Talisman: Digital 5th Edition, we've figured it was time we put together another player survey for you all!

You can find it here.


One of the key things for us here at Nomad Games is listening to the Talisman community - and by filling in surveys like this, leaving comments on the things we do and sharing your thoughts with us, you're helping not only make Talisman: Digital 5th Edition a better game, but Talisman as a whole!

As thanks for filling in the survey and being a cool community, here's a picture of a toad. ːTalProToadː


Oh, and don't worry - if you're keen to hear about Alliances: Fate Beckons, we'll be sharing more details mighty soon, so stay tuned to all of our socials to hear all about it first!

Remastered Character Update and Alliances: Fate Beckons Release Date

Hi Talisman fans! ːBlueTalismanː ːTalProToadː

We’ve got two exciting announcements for you:
  • We’ve just added 5 remastered characters to Talisman: Digital 5th Edition, including the iconic Druid and Minstrel from the 4th Edition base game!
  • We’re able to confirm that Alliances: Fate Beckons will be launching for Talisman: Digital 5th Edition on July 10th!
First up, the remastered Druid and Minstrel characters are available for free to all owners of Talisman: Digital 5th Edition, as of today. They were originally available in the base 4th Edition version of the Talisman board game, so whether you’re playing with these two for the first time, or coming back to an old favourite, we hope all players enjoy them!

The remastered versions of The Ranger, The Jester and The Swordsman are also now available as individual purchases, or you can bring across your original purchases of these characters from Talisman: Digital Classic Edition to unlock the new, remastered versions at no additional cost.


Just like with the remastered expansions from Talisman: Digital Classic Edition, if you’ve previously purchased one of the newly remastered characters in Talisman: Digital Classic Edition, the remastered version will be added to your copy of Talisman: Digital 5th Edition completely free - you just need to sign into your Nomad Account on both games! If you’ve got any questions about how to do this, you can check out the our full blog explaining the Digital Classic Edition to Digital 5th Edition carryover process.

You can check out the full patch notes for this update below:
  • Added The Druid and The Minstrel to the base game, free for all players.
  • The Ranger, The Jester and The Swordsman characters are also now available as individual purchases.
  • Added the ability to sync across your individual character purchases from Talisman: Digital Classic Edition over to Talisman: Digital 5th Edition

  • Restored the Assassin's ability to use the assassinate ability while at the Crown of Command
