The last week of April 2026 was Traveller Week at the Bundle of Holding – a sequence of five offers in four days, all featuring Traveller from Mongoose Publishing, that led up to Traveller Day. Each year on May 1, fans celebrate Traveller Day in honor of the cover copy on the 1977 First Edition of Traveller: “This is Free Trader Beowulf, calling anyone… Mayday, Mayday…”
We kicked off Traveller Week 2026 with two offers – one new, one revived. The resurrected December 2024 Mongoose Traveller Update Bundle, with the core rulebook and useful supplements, made a great launching pad. Its all-new companion, Traveller Imperial Navy, added sourcebooks and adventures that focus on the Third Imperium space fleet.
Traveller is a game of bold explorers and brave adventurers. Spaceports, ancient civilizations, air/rafts, cold steel blades, laser carbines, far distant worlds, and exotic alien beasts – this is the futuristic universe of Traveller, the original and classic science fiction roleplaying game. Whether you’re a newly mustered recruit or a six-term veteran, you’ll find much to explore in the Traveller line.
1. TRAVELLER UPDATE [from Dec 2024]
Mongoose Traveller lets you explore the universe the way it suits you. Lightly revised to incorporate tweaks, rules updates, and new art, the Traveller Core Rulebook Update 2022 contains everything you need to create your Traveller and begin exploring the galaxy in the far future. And the supplements in this revived December 2024 Mongoose Traveller Update Bundle added new allies, contacts, and enemies – starships large and small – and robots of every size from nano to colossal.
There were five titles in this revived offer’s Traveller Updates collection (retail value $150) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks, including the complete Traveller Core Rulebook Update 2022, Traveller Companion Update 2024, Adventure Class Ships, Small Craft Catalogue, and the Robot Handbook.
The Update 2022 version is completely compatible with the original 2017 version of Mongoose Traveller Second Edition and its supplements and adventures.
2. TRAVELLER IMPERIAL NAVY [all-new]
The all-new Traveller Imperial Navy companion offer added sourcebooks and adventures about the Third Imperium space fleet. The Imperial Navy and the other titles in this lineup display the greatest military force in the Third Imperium, from the great fleets down to a band of new recruits. The navy is entwined in the politics and economics of the Imperium. It’s a training ground for the great nobility, and, for the general populace, a route to social advancement. Without its senior service, the Third Imperium would not exist.
There were six titles in this offer’s Imperial Navy Collection (retail value $115), including The Imperial Navy sourcebook, Element Class Cruisers: Ship Builder’s Blueprints (plus the Naval Campaigns Handbook), and all four Naval Adventures: 1: Shakedown Cruise, 2: Showing the Sunburst, 3: Fire on the Sindalian Main, and 4: Enemy of My Enemy.
