Pathfinder: Kingmaker – Enhanced Edition and Final DLC Release Date Announced

Beneath the Stolen Lands, the final DLC for Owlcat Games’ Pathfinder: Kingmaker, was originally supposed to go live in April but then had its release date postponed to May 2019. Then, that date had to be pushed back once again, and as a result we’ll now be getting the DLC on June 6, 2019. However, the wait should be worth it, as together with the DLC, Owlcat Games will be launching a free “Enhanced Edition” update for the base game. The update will introduce dozens of new features and plenty of fresh content, including a brand new playable class.

To get an idea of what to expect, you can check out this recent developer livestream that showcases one of the new prestige classes coming to the game in the Enhanced Edition:

And here are some additional details:

Beneath the Stolen Lands

Some of our shrewder fans have already figured out that we like to release things near the end of the month. Such was our plan for “Beneath The Stolen Lands”, our 3rd DLC, as well. However, after postponing it for a month from late April to late May, we’ve realized we now had 2 releases lined up one after the other in the space of a week. For this reason, we’ve decided that it would make more sense to release both the DLC and Enhanced Edition on the same day, June 6.

Just to remind you what it’s going to be like:

“Beneath The Stolen Lands” Key Features

  • Enter a massive dungeon with a party made from scratch. Begin your adventure to the Tenebrous Depths with a party of newly created characters. Start the game from the main menu and experience the descent into an endless rogue-like dungeon
  • Explore the near-infinite possibilities of building a Pathfinder character. Try out different builds to perfect your tactics at your leisure. Create a band of adventurers able to overcome any danger!
  • Defeat is but a new beginning! Dying in an encounter enables additional benefits for your next playthrough
  • Unlock new items to buy across multiple playthroughs. The number of item slots traders have depends on how far you have been able to descend during all of your previous forays combined
  • Enter the dungeon as your main character, alternatively you can wait for an invitation from a mysterious protector of Golarion as you play through the Main Story. The pre-set version of the dungeon is included into the main campaign, allowing you to use your character and companions to conquer the Tenebrous Depths
