Steve Kenson was working on Silver Age Sentinels and pitched Freedom City as a setting for the game, but the game's publishers, Guardians of Order, turned it down.[1]: 337 Chris Pramas of Green Ronin Publishing asked Kenson to design a superhero role-playing game using the D20 System, so Kenson developed Mutants & Masterminds in 2002 in part to get his Freedom City setting published, which ultimately happened in 2003.[1]: 371–372 Green Ronin published a trio of books to develop Freedom City through three different eras of comic books, Golden Age (2006), Iron Age (2007) and Silver Age (2010).[1]: 375 Starting in 2008, a series of Freedom City Atlases made an expansion to the Freedom City setting.[1]: 375 A new third edition of Mutants & Masterminds Hero's Handbook (2011) established a new setting in the game universe, Emerald City, which debuted in a series of PDF Threat Reports (2011), while a full setting book was planned for release at GenCon 44.[1]: 376 Lastly, a third edition Freedom City book was published in October 2017, which advances the timeline and introduces new characters while retiring others.[citation needed]
