Just a general question about the MLPverse

[Tots_Real]

Are the official role playing games counted as canon? Just wanted to know.

Which role-playing game are you referring?

The current rule for the canonity of MLP is here (though it is clearly outdated):

My Little Pony

For detailed information about the series, visit the My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic Wiki. The franchise My Little Pony is split up into 4 Generations, with the most popular and most powerful being that of Generation 4, Friendship is Magic. The show follows Twilight Sparkle on her journey to...

The one by Renegade that came out this year.

I personally consider the role playing game as separated continuity, though

My Little Pony media, including the comics, novels, and even trading cards, all have to go through Hasbro corporate to be considered suitable for release, which involves properly aligning with the continuity of the main show so it doesn't contradict established canon, or future planned canon. Because of this, other pieces of media have been officially referred to as secondary canon by Hasbro to staff members, such as Jeremy Whitley and Andy Price. This also gives the cartoon authority to directly or indirectly overwrite certain comic stories, thus only non-contradicted stories are included as part of the main canon.

may still apply. (Though the rule may be too old to consider new works such as Pony Life, a series I considered as a separated continuity)

Well the Renegade seems to be based on the gen 4 so it would probably fit into the main content.
