New Gameplay Today – Pillars Of Eternity II: Deadfire
It's been three years since the release of Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian Entertainment's return to the Baldur's Gate-style RPG. The sequel, Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire, is out today, which is a great excuse to group up and see how it is. Our party consists of Matt Miller (loremaster), Leo Vader (video bard), and me (some kind of awful beard golem?). Join us as Miller walks us through the game's combat – both ashore and on the high seas!
As Miller explains, there's a little something for everyone in Deadfire, provided you're into these kinds of classic RPGs. You can agonize over every action, or let the A.I. take over the broad strokes, allowing you to focus on the myriad choices that are at your disposal? Does that include kraken romance? Who can say? Well, Miller can, but he's being Very Weird about spoilers for some reason.
Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is available today on PC, with console releases planned in the future.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
