A port for the Nintendo Switch was released August 8th, 2019. Ports for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One were announced in June 2017, and released on August 29th. Taking place in the Deadfire Archipelago, the game once again stars the Watcher, who must now track down the god Eothas after he inhabits a stone statue and destroys Caed Nua, nearly killing you in the process. In January 2017, Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire started funding on Fig. The first part of The White March expansion was released on August 25, 2015, and Part 2 released on February 16, 2016. On May 28, 2015, a Kickstarter for the Collectible Card Game, Pillars of Eternity: Lords of the Eastern Reach, was started. In the wake of the game's success, Obsidian has announced that they are working on a number of things to expand the new franchise: a traditional Expansion Pack ( The White March), a sequel, a Collectible Card Game ( Lords of the Eastern Reach), and a Tabletop Game. As the Watcher searches for answers, it become increasingly evident that the Hollowborn Plague might play a bigger role in whatever they have gotten themselves messed up in. Unfortunately, that is not the only thing that is awakened in the newly-minted Watcher by the event, as they also find themselves haunted day and night by disturbing and traumatic visions, seemingly from another place and another time, robbing them of their ability to sleep calmly and quickly becoming a serious threat to their sanity, leaving them with no choice by to follow the clues offered by these visions in a hope to find some way to reverse the curse before it is too late.
Upon being activated, the machine unleashes a field of energy, that awakens something in the player character upon their exposure to it, imbuing them with the power of a Watcher a person who can peer into people souls and read their memories. Here they witness a cult performing a ritual, where the cult members activate a mysterious machine by sacrificing their souls to it. But no sooner than their caravan has crossed the border, before everything begins to go horribly wrong the travelling company is hit by by a magical storm that kills everyone but them, as they manage to just barely seek refuge in a nearby ancient ruin. The world may be about to enter a golden age as a result, but the rapid advances in technology and society occurring mark the era as a time of turmoil and conflict.īut currently, all of that is not of much concern to the Player Character, a foreigner who has arrived with a group of other immigrants to the Dyrwood, lured by promises of cheap land to settle and cultivate.
Souls are not mere metaphysical abstractions they are quantifiable, measurable objects, and their discovery has had vast implications for society, leading to the founding of a whole new field of science know as "Animancy". Paradox Interactive signed a distribution agreement with Obsidian Entertainment to market and sell the game to the general gaming public. Including PayPal donations, the gross total budget of the game was roughly $4.3 million dollars. Meeting its initial funding goal of $1.1 million in 27 hours, it went on to break the site's funding record at the time (set by Broken Age), pulling in just shy of $4 million. Intended as a Spiritual Successor to Baldur's Gate, Planescape: Torment and Icewind Dale, the game was funded in October 2012 through the crowdfunding website Kickstarter, where it was pitched as Project Eternity. Pillars of Eternity is a computer roleplaying game by Obsidian Entertainment, released on March 26, 2015.
