The Shadowrun Returns Kickstarter campaign has closed with $1.8 million in pledged funding. The funding drive by Bellevue, Washington-based developer Harebrained Schemes was aiming for $400,000 when it started. It ended up raising $1,836,447 from 36,276 backers. Including PayPal pledges (which allowed those outside the U.S. to participate) the company managed to raise a total of $1,895,772.
As promised, the company has also launched Shadowrun Universe, a community-focused destination for fans of the various Shadowrun video games and tabletop properties.
