Inspired by classic titles such as Baldur’s Gate 2: Shadows of Amn, Icewind Dale, and Planescape: Torment,  Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire will take players on a second fantastic journey to the world of Eora, this time to the vast, uncharted, Deadfire Archipelago where they will fight for their souls as they hunt down a god. 

Eothas has returned. The god of light and rebirth was thought dead, but he now inhabits the stone titan that sat buried under your keep, Caed Nua, for millennia. Ripping his way out of the ground, he destroys your stronghold and leaves you at the brink of death. To save your soul, you must track down the wayward god and demand answers - answers which could throw mortals and the gods themselves into chaos.

Obsidian Entertainment's Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire has reached the $3M USD on Fig, making it only the third video game in the past 12 months to receive this level of support from fans on any crowdfunding platform.

"We're now the campaign with the most backers in Fig history, and it's due to our amazing fans who, like us, want to make Pillars of Eternity II the deepest, most robust, and most engrossing RPG it can possibly be. We're so excited to be able to include companion relationships, which we know are going to make the game even more incredible."

While we have more in the way of stretch goals and -- only a few days left to achieve them! -- we'll save them (and a big announcement about a really important, super cool, and heretofore extremely hush-hush game feature) for our next update, which will be coming very soon. For now, we'll keep it brief and just say thanks.

The next stretch goal, at $3.25million, will add sidekicks, allowing 4 sidekicks to join you on your travels through Eora.

And by way of saying thanks, we want to announce that we're including two new rewards for several of our backer tiers, both of which feature the unofficial, super cute, pet mascot of Pillars of Eternity, the Space Pig!

The pin is shiny, fancy, and awesome, and will be added automatically for anyone who's backed us at Collector's Edition ($149) level or above.

For everyone who is a true pet lover, though, we've gone one step beyond. If you've backed us at the Name a Pet ($500) level, you'll be getting the pin, and the squishy, squeezy, Space Pig Plushie.

 

Key Features:

• EXPLORE DEADFIRE – Voyage by land and sea across the myriad islands of Deadfire to discover new cultures and environments. Resolve a multi-layered conflict between the locals, ambitious trading companies, and bands of fierce pirates while following in the footsteps of Eothas.
• A LIVING, BREATHING WORLD – The people of Deadfire have lives of their own, jobs to do, and appointments to keep. They will carry on with their affairs even when you’re not watching. Quests may even present different opportunities depending on when and where characters and environments are approached.
• NEW COMPANIONS – While some familiar faces will be returning, Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire will also welcome a fresh crop of travelers with stories of their own. Companions are tightly intertwined with the fate of Eothas, Deadfire, and will change based on the player's choices over the course of the story.
• PILLARS OF ETERNITY REACTIVITY – Continue the story you began as the Watcher of Caed Nua in Pillars of Eternity and see how your decisions and actions in the Dyrwood persist in Deadfire.
