As if there were not enough tantalising games on the horizon already, Obsidian is about to launch the first expansion for its excellent fantasy RPG Pillars of Eternity. Honestly, you wait three months for an interesting game, and then twelve come along at once.
The White March - Part 1 takes players to the frozen North (possibly a homage to a certain other snowbound RPG series), and lead area designer Bobby Null takes us through a few of the environments we’ll visit in this brief teaser video.
Stalwart Village is a bumpkin frontier town that really brings to mind Easthaven from the original Icewind Dale. It’s one of the first hub areas you’ll visit. Durgan’s Battery is a large dungeon filled with loot and monsters, while Cragholdt is an arch-mage’s fortress which is currently under siege by a band of mercenaries.
Pillars of Eternity: The White March – Part One drops tomorrow. Expect a review from us shortly.
