Kong: Skull Island – Isle of the Damned is an upcoming pair of campaign and bestiary books designed for Evil Genius Games' tabletop roleplaying game Everyday Heroes. In contrast with the shorter campaign included in Kong: Skull Island Cinematic Adventure, characters in the Isle of the Damned Cinematic Adventure Path are intended to grow from level 1 to level 10. It takes place not long after Kong: Skull Island, placing it in the mid-to-late 1970s, and players work alongside two of the film's protagonists, Mason Weaver and Captain James Conrad. Digital and physical editions will be released in 2024, with the latter including over 50 cardboard pawns for monster and human NPCs, a map tile pack, and a wooden box.

Set a few years after the events of Kong: Skull Island, this new journey sees Mason Weaver (Brie Larsen's [sic] character) and James Conrad (Tom Hiddleston's character) teaming up with your heroes to investigate government cover-ups and bring the truth to light. With Monarch's covert support, the team sets out to document their findings, but they soon discover that danger lurks around every corner.
US Army General Ward is determined to destroy Kong and restore the honor of the Sky Devils who served under his command. He preps his own group of mercenaries for an attack. To fulfill their mission, your heroes must navigate an increasingly treacherous island filled with danger and mystery. As you and your team explore the island, you will discover clues to untold mysteries and meet a group of bat-worshiping humans who have lived beneath Skull Island for untold centuries.

With heart-pumping action and fantastic discoveries, Kong: Skull Island – Isle of the Damned delivers an unforgettable adventure that will leave you on the edge of your seat.
