Players fight against the Goa'uld System Lords. Missions include retrieving artifacts, rescuing important VIPs, and assassinating or capturing high-value targets.

- Main article: Stargate Phoenix
The Living Series is the official storyline that was published with the game and will continue to be worked on. Each "Season" is split up in "Episodes". Each adventure in-game represent an "episode", with story elements building together in a living campaign to create a coherent "season", which starts during the sixth season of Stargate SG-1.[4]
Th official living campaign allows players to raise up in ranks at the S.G.C. The publisher has an online system to track character progression, where players can also earn unique items and credits over time. Players are able to transfer their characters from one table to another to play with a different group.[5]
The official season storyline's title is "Stargate: Phoenix - A Living RPG Series". [6] The first season has 13 episodes.[7] Other side mission "Bottle Episodes" are also available outside of game seasons. The first episode came out in 2021 and the thirteenth episode, the last of the first season, came out on January 16, 2023.
Development[]
The game was first announced in June 2019, and had a limited playtest run at Gen Con 2019.[5] Two playtest missions were "Dawgs of Muckmeyer"[8] and "Only Fools Rush In"[9]. The publisher worked closely with MGM in shaping the game and its new lore added to official canon. The Aturen were a new canon race created for the game.
From October 2019 to March 2020 the game continued under closed Beta, and in March 2020 a Public Beta Playtest was released.[10] In conjunction with the playtest, a digital character sheet for the game was released for the virtual tabletop platform Roll20.[11] The game was planned to be released before August 2020, in time for GenCon that year.[10]
In May 2020 the game's planned release date was pushed back to early 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic. The publisher indicated that the game would have a Kickstarter campaign in the fall.[12]
