Kotaku Sunday, June 11, 2023 9:14 PM  Since Starfield was revealed, fans have been wondering what framerate the sci-fi RPG would run at on console. In a new interview with IGN, creative director Todd Howard confirmed the Xbox Series X/S version would remain locked at 30fps to maintain a consistent look and feel throughout the game. |
Kotaku Sunday, June 11, 2023 8:10 PM  With Final Fantasy XVI's June 22 release right around the corner, Square Enix decided it's finally time to drop a PlayStation 5 demo for the action-RPG so players can get a taste of the grittier, Game of Thrones-influenced sequel for themselves. |
Kotaku Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:00 PM  Timothy "TimTheTatman" Betar is getting his wish. Activision will remove the streamer's cosmetic bundle from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Warzone, a spokesperson for the publisher confirmed. Betar said he didn't want the bundle to remain after friend and fellow streamer, Nicholas "Nickmercs" Kolcheff, had his… |
Kotaku Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:00 PM  Microsoft's 2023 Xbox Showcase was filled with a ton of cool games and a deep-dive into Starfield, the platform's biggest blockbuster in a long time. What it didn't include was any mention of Redfall, the multiplayer vampire shooter that came to Game Pass a month ago and promptly bombed. |
Kotaku Sunday, June 11, 2023 4:49 PM  As has started becoming the norm for a lot of companies, Bethesda gave players a chance to get early access to Starfield by purchasing one of its more expensive editions. This includes the Constellation Edition, which will let you play Bethesda's sci-fi RPG five days before it launches on September 6. |
PCGamesN Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:50 PM  Nova Roma is an upcoming city-building game in which you will take the reins of a decaying Roman Empire so as to bring it back to its former glory. You will need to juggle complex features unique to Lion Shield's new game, from supply chains to terrain manipulation. Nova Roma brings brand-new elements to the strategy table as it requires you to focus on all sorts of specific work relevant to the city's survival and the Roman Empire thriving. As a fan of history and management sims myself, this is definitely one I'll be keeping my eye on. Continue reading Rebuild the Roman Empire in city-builder Nova Roma |

As you create your character in this massive space game, your origin story is one of the many options you have to pick. Each background has a short bio detailing what kind of person you are and three starting Starfield skills to set you on your way.

PCGamesN Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:48 PM  Seeing StarCraft spiritual successor Stormgate in action takes me right back to the heady days of waking up early on weekends at University to watch the GSL, South Korea's top-tier pro StarCraft II league. Yeah, I'm that guy. Coming from Frost Giant Studios, a team built of ex Blizzard veterans responsible for some of the best RTS games of all time, the Stormgate gameplay debut at the PC Gaming Show already has me eager to try it for myself.

PCGamesN Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:17 PM  The reveal for apocalyptic base-building survival game Chimera paints a stark future for humanity. Among the streets of a futuristic city, loud beeps flash from the on-arm readout of its inhabitants. "Warning: Extreme Temperature," reads the display. A group of people look solemnly up to the sky as a giant, low-hanging sun crackles with intense heat. Light and flames wash over the group, screams heard ringing out beyond the roar. A barren, burnt wasteland remains, before fresh life begins to grow anew - this is the world of Chimera.

PCGamesN Sunday, June 11, 2023 4:41 PM  Want to know more about the Starfield character creation system? Starfield makes it easy to design diverse characters due to the way it handles skin tones and body types. In the latest Starfield Direct, Felipe Nogueira, lead tech artist at Bethesda explained how the character generation system was overhauled using a range of faces from different age groups and ethnicities, making it easy to create "highly detailed and diverse" characters. This makes it possible to build characters that weren't possible in Bethesda's older RPG games, which should mean a greater variety of NPCs across the space game, too. In addition to your character's appearance, you also need to consider their Starfield traits to give your character some personality and different skills. Here's everything you need to know about the Starfield character creation system.

PCGamesN Sunday, June 11, 2023 4:36 PM  Islands of Insight is so beautiful, it's made me a little emotional. Maybe the heat's getting to me, but watching the reveal trailer for this multiplayer puzzle game, formerly known as 'Project S,' from Behaviour Interactive has me desperate to dive into its grand, sweeping vistas. With its numerous sky islands covered in all manner of architecture ranging from ancient Greek and Egyptian designs to alien-like future tech, the mystery-strewn open world of Islands of Insight houses the most stunning puzzler since The Witness.

PCGamesN Sunday, June 11, 2023 4:06 PM  At the PC Gaming Show 2023, developers 11 Bit Studios formally announce the release date for Frostpunk 2, a sequel to the award-winning survival city building game. Thirty years have passed since the events of the first game, and years of whiteouts have changed not only the world but the people in it as well. In Frostpunk 2, we face an era of possible prolific expansion even with life-preserving supplies running low and rebellion on the horizon. Players will be confronted with the reality that, once people believe they have tamed the frost, the bonds of survival fade and human nature comes into play.

PCGamesN Sunday, June 11, 2023 6:10 PM  Picking the perfect PC controller isn't as easy as it once was, but the PowerA Moga XP-Ultra Wireless Controller is an attempt to solve a very modern problem. Back in the day, you might have two different gaming systems – usually a PC and a console. Microsoft made this one easy to solve, as the best Xbox controllers are cross-compatible with PCs. But what about a pad that also works with the cloud? Your phone? Your smart TV? The PowerA Moga XP-Ultra Wireless Controller promises to be the one best PC controller pad to rule them all. In theory, you can start playing on your console, go from the couch to the cloud by picking up on your phone, then get to someone else's house and resume playing on a PC or even a compatible smart TV. It's a controller built for all eventualities, then – something that is echoed by its modular design. The pad includes an attachable phone mount, turning your handset into a handheld, and it also features detachable grips, reducing the footprint for playing on the go or giving you an option if you prefer the size of old-school controllers. Continue reading PowerA Moga XP-Ultra Wireless Controller review |
PCGamesN Sunday, June 11, 2023 4:06 PM  Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty made an appearance at the Xbox and Starfield showcase, as the RPG game DLC got a brand new trailer and an appearance from the one and only Keanu Reeves.

Revealed at the Xbox Games Showcase, expect to see more of new open-world game Star Wars Outlaws at the Ubisoft Forward event on Monday, June 12, but we've got a first look right now.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:58 PM  If you're like me and thought that Starfield was just gonna be a shooty shooty space cowboy game, then think again. Revealed during the Starfield Direct that happened just after the Xbox Games Showcase, Bethesda highlighted a number of different playstyles that Starfield will be able to facilitate when it launches this September, including everything from being gung-ho all lasers blazing to a stealthy assassin. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:54 PM  Frank Herbert's weirdo sci-fi epic is a great shout for a survival game and an MMO in many ways. You've got warring factions, you've got a hostile desert planet, you've got canonical giant monsters that can form regular events for players. You got yourself a video game, baybeeeee! Or at least, Funcom do, them being the devs what are making Dune Awakening. In a little spotlight feature at the PC Gaming Show they talked a bit more about the game, and boy, sure seems like a lot of cool stuff is possible in theory. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:36 PM  One big mystery in tonight's Xbox Games Showcase was the announcement of Kunitsu-Gami: Path Of The Goddess, a new game from Capcom. It's some sort of action game seemingly steeped in Japanese mythology and it has monsters and an awful lot of masks and that's about all we can say for certain right now. But it is very pretty! It looks neat! See for yourself in the trailer below. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:34 PM  I'd rather just saunter around space looking at pretty planets in Starfield, but I guess in a game as big as Bethesda's sci-fi behemoth they want fighty fighty spaceship battles. During the Starfield Direct that ran just after tonight's Xbox Game Showcase, the folks over at Bethesda explained just how ship combat works, and it's more than just holding down the trigger and aiming in the right direction. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:30 PM  Who would have thought a bathtub would make a great little tugboat, but after seeing Critter Cove's protagonist toot his way around a sunny archipelago, it makes perfect sense. Announced during the PC Gaming Show, Critter Cove is an upcoming life-sim where making strange contraptions is all part of the fun. Check out the trailer below. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:26 PM  RPS' coveted game of the year 2022, Vampire Survivors, is getting another update, which means there are now even more reasons why you should play this game if you haven't already. Like, seriously. The big 1.5 Overwhelming Update brings with it new brain-overloading shenanigans which you can see in the trailer below, first revealed at the PC Gaming Show. Oh yeah, and the update is available today (June 11th)! |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:25 PM  Of the many Starfield elements deep-dove into during the Xbox Games Showcase's Starfield Direct, the ship building was one that we'd previously seen a decent amount of. Yet it also cemented, in quite gleeful fashion, the design tool's potential as a foundry for some truly wretched space boats. Just, awful. Consider my interest renewed as a result. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:23 PM  Cheery RPS fanzine PC Gamer has their own NotE3 show, don't you know, which this year was packed with almost two and a half hours of fresh(ish) PC gaming announcements. There sure was a lot to get into - and many of the games we saw didn't actually tell us anything new about them. So we've done the hard work for you and rounded up all the biggest and best announcements that caught our eye. So whether you're in need of a quick refresher or you missed it altogether, here are all the most exciting reveals from the PC Gaming Show 2023 that are worth knowing about. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:22 PM  Atlus have become a Persona factory in recent years, producing not only the mainline urban fantasy RPGs but spin-offs like Persona 5 Strikers and the recently announced Persona 5 Tactica. Thankfully they're working on something entirely new, too. During tonight's Xbox Games Showcase, Atlus announced Metaphor: ReFantazio, a new "high fantasy" RPG from Persona 5's director and character designer. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:06 PM  Okay, so you're not being chased by an army of murderous robots that are only seconds behind you, but you're still jumping around trying to find a new home for the last of humanity who managed to escape a doomed planet. Earthless is a roguelike deckbuilder from Blackbird Interactive, although you wouldn't know it from the cinematic teaser trailer shown at the PC Gaming Show tonight, which was heavy on the dramatic yet hopeful voiceover. As the captain of the fleet, your job is to lead everyone to a safe harbour. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 6:34 PM  I honestly thought that 11 Bit Studios would have a tough time making Frostpunk 2 stand out from the original game, but from the looks of the sequel's new trailer, it certainly stands out all right. It looks like a very mean game, and I'm sure I'm going to love every second of it when it comes out, which was confirmed as 2024 during the PC Gaming Show. You can check out the trailer below. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 6:33 PM  If owning forty thousand hammers sounds ludicrous to you, come have a peek at the new trailer for Warhammer Age Of Sigmar: Realms Of Ruin. This accompanies news that the fantasy RTS will run a multiplayer open beta test over the weekend of July 7-10. That will let every orrible scrote in to play 1v1 matches as either the Orruk Kruleboyz or Stormcast Eternals. That's basically Orks vs. Space Marines except their swords aren't chainsaws, okay. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 6:32 PM  Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty got a new trailer and release date earlier this evening. Developers CD Projekt Red then followed up by sharing the expansion's system requirements, which includes a GeForce GTX1060 6GB or Radeon RX 580 8GB in order to hit 1080p at 30fps as minimum spec. CDPR also say they're amending the system requirements to the base game and will no longer supporting hard disk drives. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 6:30 PM  When Mimimi Games announced their latest stealth strategy game Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew back in January, I was pretty darn stoked. You can also imagine my excitement when they said it would be out later this year, too. Not in 2024, or several years down the line, but in the next 12 months. Absolutely my favourite thing in the world, reveals like that. Can't get enough of them. So picture how I must be feeling right now, having just heard Shadow Gambit's actual release date at tonight's PC Gaming Show. Time to mark your calendars, folks. We'll be stealth murdering our way around its Lost Caribbean on August 17th. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 6:25 PM  The studio behind Don't Starve and Oxygen Not Included today announced their next survival game, a sandbox spaceship game named Dread Pilots. Klei Entertainment this time will send us into a hostile pocket dimension known as the Dread, aimed with only our wits and our wee ship. It's on you to explore, trade, steal, upgrade, avoid, befriend, ally, and murder your way to survival. The game is due to enter early access next year so for now, content yourself with the announcement trailer below. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 6:20 PM  If you ever became Grand Champion in the combat arena in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, then you will recognise the little cone-headed gimp who made a surprise cameo in tonight's Starfield deep dive, streamed as part of the Xbox Games Showcase for not-E3. In the case of the upcoming space-themed mega-RPG, he'll attach to your character if you choose the trait Hero Worshipped. He still has stupid hair in Starfield, too. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 6:00 PM  When solo developer Gareth Damian Martin started teasing they were working on another project together with Citizen Sleeper's composer Amos Roddy and character artist Guillaume Singelin last month, I didn't even dare to hope that it might be another Citizen Sleeper game. I adored the first one - and even picked it for May's RPS Game Club - but the prospect of a sequel seemed almost too good to be true. Happily, tonight's PC Gaming Show brought the news I was waiting for. After a dramatic animated trailer reveal, I'm happy to report that Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector is indeed a real thing, and I spoke to Damian Martin earlier this week to find out all about it. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:54 PM  The Roman Empire may have fallen long ago but Rome has stood for almost three millenia. Think you can do better? Newly announced citybuilder Nova Roma will challenge you to start your own new Roman city away from the crumbling Empire, trying to not just survive but thrive, pleasing both your citizens and the gods. It's made by Lion Shield, the studio behind 2017's lovely medieval fantasy citybuilder Kingdoms And Castles. Check out Nova Roma's announcement trailer below! |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:51 PM  Though Baldur's Gate 3 has been in early access for almost three years, it hasn't yet given us, uh, Baldur's Gate. The city which gave the series its name will be a big location in the full game when it launches in August, and today developers Larian showed off its fancy new modern form. It's come a long way since the days of BioWare making Baldur's Gate games in the Infinity Engine. See for yourself in the trailer below. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:33 PM  As promised, Bethesda gave us an extended look at Starfield this evening as part of a dedicated presentation attatched to Microsoft's larger not-E3 showcase. Alongside a fresh look at the game's 1000 planets, combat and skill trees, we were given a closer peek at arguably the most important part of the whole game: its character creator. Described as the "simplest character creator" the team have ever made, Starfield will let you dig into the finer details of your space captain's face, right down to their teeth for reasons I can't quite work out yet. An improvement on the creators found in previous Bethesda games, there's nothing here that looks particularly innovative compared to other open-world games of this ilk. What's interesting is that this time around, the team have used the in-game tool to create every last one of Starfield's NPCs. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:31 PM  What happens when some folks who previously worked at Blizzard on games including Warcraft 3 and StarCraft 2 go independent with a new studio to make a new real-time strategy game? They make a game which looks quite a lot like 'Warcraft 3 meets StarCraft 2'. That's Stormgate, and you can see that for yourself in the first gameplay trailer, below. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:21 PM  The gang behind Exo One, a game about drinking in dramatic sci-fi vistas while flying and rolling a strange craft across alien planets, have announced a spin-off. It is not a spin-off I would have expected. Exo Rally Championship is an off-road rally racing game where you'll zoom across exoplanets in a six-wheeled car with manoeuvring thrusters. Soar over low-gravity worlds! Dodge through a meteor shower! Gasp at the pretty landscapes! Have a look in the trailer below. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:12 PM  Looks like I won't be regretting every in-game decision I've ever made with Stoic's new game Towerborne. It's an action RPG that looks much more light-hearted than the studio's previous Viking-ish trilogy The Banner Saga, where I killed every character I loved and made a host of bad choices. Announced during the Xbox Game Showcase at this year's not-E3, Towerborne looks much more family-friendly. Which is lucky because you'll be wanting to grab family members, as it's also a co-op adventure. Check out the trailer below. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:03 PM  You'll be meeting lots of NPCs on your jaunt around space in Starfield, but during the dedicated Starfield presentation as part of not-E3, we got a look at one group of rag-tag space folks in more detail - Constellation. Described in the showcase as a team that's sort of a "mythical group" and "the last true explorers in the galaxy." Their whole deal is that they're trying to grapple with humanity's biggest questions and are on big ol' space quest to find answers. They're concerned with weird artifacts, ancient alien intelligence, and a bunch of other space anthropological happenings. |

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 4:45 PM  "So why go this big with Starfield?" asks Bethesda Softworks' lead landscape artist Matt Carofano at the beginning of a segment in tonight's Starfield Direct. "Because we want to give you freedom on a galactic level," is the unsatisfying response. Starfield features over 1000 planets to visit, each procedurally generated upon your approach but populated with handcrafted elements. Your "freedom" upon landing on these planets - many of which seem near-barren - is whether you spend your time doing some quests, 'surveying' the local flora and fauna, or shooting rocks with your space laser. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 4:34 PM  What's a captain without a crew? At the combined Xbox Games Showcase slash Starfield Direct tonight, Bethesda did a deep dive on a few aspects of their upcoming space RPG Starfield - including the companion system. Although, given that you assign them to different tasks on your ship and various outposts, it might be more appropriate to call them "employees". Although again, you can romance some of them, which is definitely an HR issue. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Sunday, June 11, 2023 4:11 PM  I've been itching to get my hands on League Of Geeks' new roguelike colony sim ever since I first clapped eyes on its 70s anime-infused visuals back in November last year. The good news is that you'll soon be able to do exactly that, as tonight's PC Gaming Show confirmed that Jumplight Odyssey will be getting a Steam Next Fest demo on June 19th. That's just over a week away at time of writing, and having played an early version of that demo myself, I'm pleased to report that it's shaping up very nicely indeed - even if my first attempt ended in catastrophic disaster after I was boarded by half a dozen crews of angry green alien lads. |

Square Enix announced a demo release date at the Final Fantasy XVI pre-launch celebration. It will debut on June 12, 2023. Save data will carry over to the full game. The event also revealed PlatinumGames worked on the title. So did Creative Business Unit 1, the Square Enix developer that normally works on Kingdom Hearts games. Finally, Torgal stuffed animals are coming in 2024. With the Final Fantasy XVI demo, there will be two parts. The first is a prologue portion. This will be a cutscene-heavy section that lasts about two hours. You can save in it, and that will carry over to a retail copy of the game. There is also a special battle demo in this trial. That only unlocks once the prologue is complete. That will apparently also give people a chance to see Clive use extra Eikon abilities in battle beyond the ones he uses earlier in the game. Here's the exact release date timing for the Final Fantasy XVI demo in various regions. As for the Torgals, there are two kinds of stuffed animals. One is a $39.99 puppy. The other is is a $119.99 adult model. Here's how those look: Final Fantasy XVI will be available for the PlayStation 5 On June 22, 2023, and the demo release date is June 12, 2023. There is a six-month exclusivity period. The post Final Fantasy XVI Demo Releases Tomorrow appeared first on Siliconera. |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Sunday, June 11, 2023 8:12 PM  Persona fans have quite a bit of new content to anticipate after the Xbox Games Showcase that aired today. Atlus already catered to fans' Persona cravings with the announcement of Persona 3 Reload, a substantial remake of a revered entry in the series. But Atlus soon followed up that game announcement with the reveal of Persona 5 Tactica, the latest in a line of spinoffs related to Persona 5. As the name suggests, Persona 5 Tactica eschews the standard turn-based RPG combat seen across the series in favor of a grid-based tactical gameplay system. So in other words, those who love games like Fire Emblem may find something to latch onto here. As the reveal trailer immediately makes apparent, Persona 5 Tactica changes more than just the gameplay style. This time around, the Phantom Thieves and other characters from Persona 5 sport a new chibi look that contrasts with the more traditional anime look adopted by most of the series' entries. The contrast between the cu... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:04 PM  If you have enjoyed many of the recent Persona installments but haven't yet experienced Persona 3, you will soon get another major opportunity to do just that. At today's Xbox showcase, Atlus put out a trailer unveiling a brand-new remake of Persona 3, dubbed Persona 3 Reload. As fans of the series probably would have expected, Persona 3 Reload reinterprets the original game's locations and characters using an altered version of the visual style from Persona 5. Considering that Persona 5 received hefty praise for its stylized aesthetic, this seems like a no-brainer direction for a Persona 3 remake to go in. The official web page for Persona 3 Reload briefly goes over the story and key features of this remake. Like in the original, players assume the role of a transfer student who has to deal with a phenomenon called the "Dark Hour," referring to "the hour 'hidden' between one day and the next." Throughout the protagonist... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Sunday, June 11, 2023 7:01 PM  During the Xbox Games Showcase, DON'T NOD, the developers of the Life is Strange series among others, revealed their latest project. Simply named Jusant, the trailer shows a boy and a creature companion climbing for two minutes. Jusant– The relaxing, at your own pace action-puzzle climbing game Screenshot via Xbox YouTube The trailer for the game ultimately doesn't show much. We see a boy with a creature in his backpack climb past a broken down, ruined vehicle of some sort. He emerges to a cliffside village. Many shots of climbing are then shown before the trailer ends. Screenshot via Xbox YouTube The developer page for the game describes it as a relaxing nature game you can play at your own pace. There's no hint of any story besides discovering the secrets of an ancient civilization. Your creature companion is made of water and is called Ballast. That's about all there is to gauge, though the ruined, airplane-like vehicle s... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Sunday, June 11, 2023 6:11 PM  Capcom unveiling a new fighting game is nothing out of the ordinary, but in a studio known for grittier series like Resident Evil, their newest project revealed today, Path of the Goddess, strikes a different and beautiful chord. Path of the Goddess– New Traditional Japanese Aesthetic Combat game from Capcom The trailer for Path of the Goddess is told completely wordlessly. After a shot of a bowing character, we're shown shot after shot of beautiful or haunting scenery overrun with monsters. Screenshot via Xbox YouTube Then the character from before reappears, in a stance almost as if she were transported from her previous location, and a masked figure with a sword comes down and cuts through the darkness. The most interesting shot from the combat footage for me is showing the figure defeating a monster who turns into a person. Are we dealing with a cursed land that must be freed? Is that why the praying character enlists their help? The desc... |
PC Invasion - FeedDDD Sunday, June 11, 2023 5:54 PM  When you hear that Obsidian Entertainment is working on something new, it's worth taking note. The company has an incredible track record in gaming including classics like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II, Pillars of Eternity I and II, The Outer Worlds, and even the oddball Honey I Shrunk the Kids-inspired Grounded. Obsidian teased its next medieval RPG Avowed several years ago, and now has a fresh gameplay trailer out to show its progress. A powerful battlemage with undetermined motives? The trailer takes an angle of descriptive voiceover for the protagonist's legacy in the making while it cuts to different clips showcasing the player's powers. You take on the role of an envoy of Aedyr within the Pillars of Eternity universe and investigate strange events.
