Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous will release this September on PC, developer Owlcat Games confirmed today.
The massive role-playing game, the sequel to Pathfinder: Kingmaker, will be released on PC via Steam and GOG on September 6th worldwide. Owlcat will talk more about the plans for a console release in the near future.
All those who contributed to the Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous Kickstarter and Slacker Backer campaigns in the relevant tiers will also be able to access the game’s second beta from today. This new beta includes the game’s first four chapters, Crusade gameplay, new sidequests, a weather system, and more, as well as all the content featured in the first beta.
Judging from this second beta, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is definitely on the right track to be one of the best RPGs of the year. The game promises to be a massive role-playing game featuring a deep and authentic Pathfinder experience.
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is setting out to be the role-playing game to get this year for those who love classics like the Baldur’s Gate games, coming with all the features one would expect to see in a cRPG while introducing mechanics that make the experience both more accessible and deeper. After around 15 hours in the beta, I feel like I have only skimmed the surface of an experience that looks epic in every sense of the word.
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous launches on PC via Steam and GOG on September 6th worldwide.
Embark on a journey to a realm overrun by demons in a new epic RPG from the creators of the critically acclaimed Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Explore the nature of good and evil, learn the true cost of power, and rise as a Mythic Hero capable of deeds beyond mortal expectations.
Your path will take you to the Worldwound, where the opening of a rift to the Abyss has unleashed all-consuming terror across the land. For over a century, the neighboring nations have tried to withstand the threat coming from the portal and drive the enemy back, but to little avail. Now you have the chance to put an end to this conflict, but the path to salvation is far from clear-cut. Will you become a shining angel backed by worthy paladins? Or a powerful necromancer with hordes of immortal undead in your thrall? Or something else? Lead your army and challenge the mighty demon lords. Your crusade will set in motion a chain of events that will change the world – and you – forever.
