≫ WHAT'S UP WITH GATEWAY ROLEPLAY? ≪

  • We've been radio silent for a long time now. We posted an announcement in our Discord server back in April of 2025, but never updated the forums. So what's up with Gateway Roleplay?

    After 5 long years, we've decided to place the development of Ties That Bind on an indefinite hold.

    This doesn't mean it's cancelled. We fully intend to run Ties That Bind: What Lies Beneath and Ties That Bind: City of Angels eventually. But to do so, we need to take a step back. In the meantime, we'll be working on smaller, invite-only projects.

    Thank you to everyone who has stuck with us this long! MindGate and I (Pika) have been working on this server for over a decade now. It truly is a passion project for us.

Announcement: What We Become Survivor Stories: File 6-9 + 7/28/78
​

... And we're back! Long time no see. It's been a while, I know, but we've got some exciting news to share. Let's jump right into it.

The launch is imminent. It's coming soon.

By the end of this series of one-shots, we'll announce the release date for What Lies Beneath, which is now being dubbed as SEASON 1 of Ties That Bind. The length of said season will remain the same as implied in previous newsletters - a little over a month - and will lead into SEASON 2, City of Angels.

In the meantime, here are our dates for the upcoming series of one-shots. If you have ANY QUESTIONS about these, please ask away here. I'll answer what I can.



File #6 - Dark Sector
This one-shot acts a baseline test, focusing on general features found in most events.

While patrolling a remote region of the Labrador Sea, the crew of the CDS Roderick J. Wynn discovers a distress signal leading them to the remains of Anton Korshunov's flagship, the CSS Terrafaux, thought to be lost since his defeat at the hands of the alliance five years prior. A team is dispatched to investigate the ship, but once on board the maze-like vessel, the recovery team discovers that it is anything but deserted. It is home to something more deadly and horrific than anything they've encountered in all their years at sea.

Launches: June 8, 2024

File #7 - Infiltrator
This one-shot acts a stealth/base infiltration test, focusing on features found in those rulesets.

A small group of survivors are left reeling after witnessing the massacre of their friends and families aboard the New Karanda. Driven by revenge, they volunteer for a high-risk mission offering a chance to turn the tide of the civil war and give them a chance to eliminate the two men responsible for the attack: Ranger General Addison Sobic and OSI Deputy Director Lawrence Orman.

Launches: June 22, 2024

File #8 - Siege
This one-shot acts a PVP test - NPCs included.

In the final hours of the civil war in Pittsford, the stage is set for one final battle promising a decisive conclusion as units from both the Coalition and ICLF find themselves face-to-face in a final battle within the capital, vying for control of the Nazareth Campus. Only one side can emerge victorious, leaving the question: who will it be?

Launches: June 29, 2024

File #9 - Wayward
This one-shot acts a baseline test with a focus on investigation.

After receiving a summon from a revered Monstrophist Digby Sterling and his partners, a team of seasoned hunters descends upon La Rive—a secluded community nestled on the outskirts of Eagle Lake, Maine. The area has been plagued by a troubling string of disappearances.

Launches: July 6, 2024
