About the Game
The realm of Sarkoris was destroyed when Areelu Vorlesh, a scholar and practitioner of forbidden magics, opened a rift to the abyssal planes of existence, and hordes of demons invaded the world of Golarion. Led by the evil Demon Lords Deskari and Baphomet, the abyssal forces crushed all who stood against them, turning Sarkoris into a demon‑infested land now known as the Worldwound.
Join the Crusade against the demonic invasion and rise as a new hero wielding unimaginable powers in this classic CRPG. The fate of this world lies in your hands. Read More

I’m probably going to regret this (again), based on my previous experiences with Owlcat Games’ Pathfinder: Kingmaker in Oct 2018. I pre-ordered Kingmaker and was hit with game-stopping bugs, as part of their 100+ bugs on launch day. It was clear that the game was not ready for launch. Eventually, Owlcat was able to fix the numerous problems and was able to save their reputation (at least in my eyes).
The most famous disappointing game launch in recent memory was for Cyberpunk 2077… which left a permanent scar on developer CD Projekt. While the game was not such a problem on PC (which is where I purchased the game), it was problematic for Xbox and PS4 (which was almost unplayable on the aging platform).
Anyway, the upcoming sequel to Pathfinder: Kingmaker, called Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, will launch on PC on September 2, 2021, with the console versions (Xbox, PS4) to be available later next year. Yes, I pre-ordered the game so I can start playing as soon as possible.
I did enjoyed Pathfinder: Kingmaker, but it does take getting used to the way the game may seem really harsh. The game is based on an off-shoot of Dungeons & Dragons rulesets, so at times it can seem unfair … but it’s because the game is observing a random d20 dice roll. While games such as the upcoming Baldur’s Gate 3 have implemented “second chances” or other modifications to make the game enjoyable… I do not believe Pathfinder will do this. They will strictly follow the rules.
Am I concern that Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous will be full of bugs when it launch this week? A little big, but I feel that it probably won’t be such a big deal. This is because the sequel is using the same Kingmaker game engine… and the developers have already ironed out all the kinks in the engine over the two years of development.
At least I hope that’s the case… if not, I’m sure you’ll hear from me, complaining about all the bugs.
Anyway, as a special bonus to those who pre-ordered the game on GOG, Owlcat will offer these items in your game:
Silver Tongue Amulet
Free Dancer’s Boots
Owlcat Pet
Skins for three animal companions
