Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Passes Funding Goal in Less Than 24 Hours

As expected.

Posted By | On 27th, Jan. 2017

As expected of the IP that set a record for the fastest funded Kickstarter ever, Obsidian Entertainment’s Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire managed to surpass its $1.1 million funding goal on Fig in less than 24 hours.

Currently, the total funding sits at $1,124,606. Equity is still set at $2.25 million so invest if you truly want to have a role in the game’s development.

With the base funding goal reached, backers can now look to the first stretch goal which is set at $1.4 million. This will add two sub-classes for each class, thus increasing the variety of customization and replay value for players.

Like its predecessor, Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire is an old school-style isometric RPG which directly continues the story of the original. You’ll be dealing with an angry deity in a new environment and Obsidian is promising more open world freedom, “truly living cities” and the ability to transfer saves from the original.

What are your thoughts on the funding campaign? Let us know below.
