X-Men: Alternate Class is a text-based role-playing game set in a reimagined corner of the Marvel Universe, focusing on the students and residents of Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters. In this world, canon characters are missing, altered, or gone entirely, allowing players to create original mutant superheroes who make up the Alternate Class of the X-Men.

Players will battle villains, embark on heroic missions, and advocate for mutant rights while navigating a world shaped by extraordinary powers and high-stakes events. These challenges are designed to test characters and help them grow into true heroes. X-Men: Alternate Class is a collaborative, narrative-driven storytelling environment where players participate in structured missions and ongoing serialized events, while also exploring personal growth and character development.

Cooperative writing and creative narratives are emphasized over raw power or one-shot action scenes, encouraging the Alternate Class to evolve together within a shared, living story.

The game uses Nova as its content management system for gameplay, with Discord serving as the primary platform for player communication.
