Ordem Paranormal RPG 2: Announcement, Playtest and What's Been Confirmed

On August 29, 2026, during the Segredos Revelados 2026 event, Cellbit announced Ordem Paranormal RPG 2 — and the official description came with a sentence that changes the game: a "completely new game, rebuilt from its foundations." This is not a numbered update of the current book; it's a different project.

The new version will have a stronger focus on investigation and horror, will be used live in the A Vigília special as early as October, and already has a free public playtest in two acts: A Maldição do Ídolo de Pedra. Release date, price and compatibility with the first edition, however, have not been confirmed yet.

This article gathers what was announced, what you can test today and what remains open.

What Is Ordem Paranormal RPG 2

Ordem Paranormal RPG 2 is the new version of the tabletop RPG set in the universe created by Rafael Lange, Cellbit, published by Jambô Editora. The team is rebuilding the foundations of the system to bring the rules closer to the franchise's investigation and horror proposal.

During the presentation, Cellbit explained that the new version received a broad reconstruction — and that the project differs from a numbered update of the current book, whose digital version reached version number 1.3. The campaign also presents the change as the beginning of a "new era of Ordem Paranormal".

What's still missing: the team has not published a complete list of the mechanics kept, modified or discarded, nor the full technical credits of the new edition — the names of all authors, designers, illustrators and editors are still pending.

A Maldição do Ídolo de Pedra Is the First Playtest

The first official playtest of Ordem Paranormal RPG 2 is A Maldição do Ídolo de Pedra, an adventure in two acts released for free through the Arquivos Secretos, the official Ordem Paranormal service run by Jambô Editora.

To access it, simply log in or create an account on the publisher's website and look for the August 2026 package of Arquivos Secretos — the special delivery came out during the Segredos Revelados stream.

It's worth remembering what a playtest is: a test version used to evaluate rules. The material reflects the current state of development, so the rules may still change and should not be treated as the final version. The team also hasn't said how many playtests are coming, and there is no public schedule for new releases.

A Vigília Will Be the First Campaign with the New System

A Vigília is the Halloween special that debuts the system in live broadcasts, with three episodes on October 17, 24 and 31, 2026, always on Saturdays.

The story takes place in the year 890, about 1,200 years before the contemporary campaigns, in a small medieval village in Ireland. The setting is also a test for the system: the rules will need to support a story far from the modern structure of the Ordo Realitas, without firearms, technology or the organization of the current seasons.

The broadcasts will be the second public reference for the mechanics — and the first showing Cellbit applying the new rules across complete sessions. Players, characters and episode length have not been revealed yet.

What Changes in the Rules

The main confirmed conceptual change is a stronger focus on investigation. The playtest already reveals part of the new structure — three attributes (Physical, Mind and Emotion), Health and PD bars and a 20-skill list — but there is no complete official list of mechanical changes: combat, sanity, rituals, progression and interaction with the paranormal remain without detailed confirmation.

The first concrete reference is A Maldição do Ídolo de Pedra. In October, A Vigília provides the second reference, showing the system in action with the master himself across three complete sessions.

When Will It Be Released? And the First Edition?

Ordem Paranormal RPG 2 still has no confirmed release date, price, pre-order or formats (physical book, PDF, special editions, accessories). Jambô also hasn't explained how the two versions will coexist: compatibility with supplements, adventures, creatures and the monthly Arquivos Secretos content of the first edition remains unconfirmed.

Until conversion guidelines are published, treat version 1.3 and the Ordem Paranormal RPG 2 playtest as separate rule sets. The playtest suits groups willing to try mechanics in development; tables that need consolidated rules can stay on 1.3 while following A Vigília.

How to Follow and Test

The most direct path is to get into the playtest: access the Arquivos Secretos and download the two acts of A Maldição do Ídolo de Pedra. On Mini Kraken, the Ordem Paranormal II Playtest system page is already live, with an automatic sheet and playtest materials ready to use. The A Vigília broadcasts, in October, are the second milestone for seeing the rules in action.

For those who want to set the mood at their own table while waiting, the universe keeps moving: the Arquivos Secretos deliver canonical content every month, you can follow all campaigns in chronological order and, when it's time to build agents, the guide on how to create an Ordem Paranormal character sheet remains the starting point.

The New Era Starts with Testing

Ordem Paranormal RPG 2 arrives as a reconstruction, not a patch: more investigation, more horror and a system that will be observed live before the book even exists. For anyone who wants to take part in this phase, the playtest is already on the table — and October will show what this new era is capable of.
