We finally have the release date for Obsidian Entertainment's highly anticipated cRPG Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire. The god-chasing, island-hopping sequel to 2015's Pillars of Eternity is currently slated for an April 3, 2018 release. So, if you're interested in Obsidian's latest title, now would be a good time to dust off your savegames and start brainstorming names for a vessel that will take you on a heroic journey through Eora's Deadfire archipelago.
And if you're the pre-ordering sort, you can grab a copy of the game already on Steam, GOG, and the game's official website. It comes in three separate editions, with the Standard one priced at $49.99 or your regional equivalent. Here's what you'll get for pre-ordering, along with a brief description of the game itself:
PRE-ORDER TODAY to get your FREE digital items:
Beakhead, the Hawk (In-Game Pet): Beakhead, the white hawk, took a liking to your ship soon after you arrived in the Deadfire. Captains in the Deadfire are only as effective as their crew, and with this jaunty first-mate by your side you're bound to find success at sea.
St. Drogga's Skull – the green flame of St. Drogga's Skull will not only guide you through the darkest reaches of the Deadfire but serve you in combat as well. Crafted from a sabre and the skull of a martyr, this deadly implement will both slash and burn enemies in combat.
Black Flag: This flag is said to have been flown by a mysterious and rowdy band of seadogs from a far-off land, who dyed their sails black with a stain made from ground-up dragon glass. Dark and intimidating, but somehow attractive, nonetheless.
Pursue a rogue god over land and sea in the sequel to the multi-award-winning RPG Pillars of Eternity. Captain your ship on a dangerous voyage of discovery across the vast unexplored archipelago region of the Deadfire. Bend the world to your will, as you explore the depths of infinite possibilities, including detailed character customization, total freedom of exploration, and more meaningful choices at every turn.
- Immerse yourself in a deeper single player RPG game experience – enriched with cutting edge technology and features, Deadfire builds on the foundation of classic D&D gameplay with vastly improved graphics, deeper game mechanics and a whole new hand-crafted adventure where choices truly matter.
- Discover the new region of the Deadfire – plot your own course by ship and explore the rich and exotic islands of the archipelago region, discovering new places interacting with their inhabitants and engaging in a variety of quests at every port.
- Build your party and customize your companions – choose from 7 different companions to join you on your quest and assign multiple classes and deeper abilities for each. Witness their personal relationships and interactions unfold with the addition of the new companion system.
- Captain your ship across the seas – as your stronghold on the seas, your ship is much more than simply a vessel for exploring. Upgrade your ship and crew and choose what skills you improve in order to survive dangerous encounters along the way.
