Full Throttle Across the Stars
Starfinder drops players into a galaxy where magic and technology have fused into something gloriously strange — where you might swap fire support with a robot mercenary, negotiate with a sentient gas cloud, or, in this case, strap into a souped-up starship and race for glory across the cosmos. Written by Jessica Catalan, Redshift Rally is a complete, self-contained adventure for the Starfinder Roleplaying Game that trades dungeon crawls for burning engines and white-knuckle competition. This is Starfinder at its most kinetic.
What's Inside
At its heart, Redshift Rally is a racing adventure — and it commits fully to that premise. The book centers on the legendary Absalom Run, one of the most storied competitions in the Pact Worlds, and gives Game Masters everything needed to bring the spectacle to life: the race's history, its current field of competitors, the rivalries that simmer beneath the surface, and the chaos that erupts when player characters enter the mix. This isn't just a series of vehicle chase scenes stitched together — it's a living sporting event with personality, politics, and danger.
Beyond the race itself, the adventure expands the Starfinder toolkit in meaningful ways. Game Masters gain two new weird alien creatures to throw at their players, while the book also introduces new spells, vehicle upgrades, and a new archetype built specifically for pilots, speed enthusiasts, and anyone who has ever wanted their character to be the fastest thing in the sector. That archetype alone makes Redshift Rally worth examining even outside the context of a single session.
Who This Is For
Redshift Rally is written for a party of 7th-level Starfinder characters, placing it squarely in mid-tier play — past the tutorial phase, but before the cosmic-scale endgame. It's an ideal choice for Game Masters looking to break up a longer campaign with something high-energy and self-contained, or as a standalone one-shot or short arc for an experienced group. Players who have been itching to lean into vehicle mechanics will find the new archetype and upgrades genuinely rewarding. This adventure requires the Starfinder Core Rulebook to run — it is a supplement, not a standalone game.
