Publication history

Dead Reign is a zombie apocalypse game from Palladium Books, and rated as an "SDC" game on the company's Megaversal system, putting it at a more-human power level than most games from Palladium.^[1] Two supplements for Dead Reign were published in 2008, and according to Shannon Appelcline the game "generally showed that Palladium was doing more than just surviving in the years following the Crisis [of Treachery]; it was also continuing to innovate settings".^[1]
