From Board Game Geek:

The town of Arkham, Massachusetts is in a panic. Horrific and bizarre events have begun to occur with increasing frequency -- all seeming to point towards some cataclysmic event in the near future that may spell disaster for everyone. Only one small band of investigators can save Arkham from the Great Old Ones and destruction!

Arkham Horror was originally published by Chaosium, Inc. almost two decades ago. This NEW, UPDATED edition features stunning new artwork and graphical design as well as REVISED and EXPANDED rules from the game's original creator, Richard Launius. There will be 16 unique characters in the new edition, each with unique abilities and starting gear. This will include the original 8 characters (all updated with shiny new abilities) and 8 new characters. The "Powers" in the old edition will be referred to now as "Ancient Ones" for consistency within FFG Call of Cthulhu products. They will work very differently from how they used to, and there will be 8 of them. The way they work in the new edition willl be like having 8 different games in one box.
