Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is a new RPG in partnership with Paizo. Comprising in-depth role-playing strategies, this videogame will expand upon the world of Pathfinder: Kingmaker by giving you the option of different Mythic Paths and a revised kingdom management system, so take-up your sword and prepare to embark on a mythical adventure.
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is developed by Owlcat Games using a modified version of the Unity Engine. They crowdfunded their first videogame based on Paizo’s Publishing franchise and are set to do the same with this. Expect improved graphics and environments with rich lore and story-driven characters.
Similar to its predecessor, this videogame looks like a worthy addition to the RPG genre with new classes added including Witch and Oracle which are adapted from the tabletop game of the same name. There are also plenty of moral decisions that’ll change your gameplay as you journey through the demon-infested wasteland, the crusader cities, and murky dungeons.
Set in the mythical world of Golorion which contains eight continents and immense seas, you must help fight a demonic invasion of gruesome beasts. There’s plenty of material to expand the Role-playing gameplay to new levels, including the path of the immortal lich, the path of the angel, or the path of the trickster.
If you’ve played Paizo’s tabletop games before and enjoy the (D&D) ruleset in such videogames as Baldur’s Gate, you’ll probably find something to like in this new one. The graphics look amazing with nice environments to explore as you combat the deadly inhabitants of the continent of Avistan. However, if the thought of another role-playing spin-off with complex combat mechanics makes you groan, then I am sure there’ll be an easier setting to choose from.
Alexander Mishulin and Alexander Kozmov have reprised their roles as creative director and chief scriptwriter so expect a story-driven adventure with iconic characters, ready to accompany you on your dangerous journey into the unknown.
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous launches on Kickstarter February 4th, 2020.
