Pillars of Eternity 2 Dev Working on Bigger Unannounced Project

Obsidian Entertainment has something up its sleeve that is even bigger than its upcoming sequel.

Posted By | On 30th, Aug. 2017

For several years now, Obsidian Entertainment has been known as the studio that made a triumphant comeback with Pillars of Eternity, its computer RPG which recently released for Xbox One and PS4. Though its next release Tyranny wasn’t quite as big a hit, the developer is currently busy with Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire after its successful crowd-funding campaign brought in over $4.4 million.

However, it has something even bigger in development. Eurogamer’s recent walkthrough video of Obsidian Entertainment saw CEO of Obsidian Entertainment Feargus Urquhart discussing the overall make-up of the studio.

At about 7:30 in the video below when asked if Pillars of Eternity 2 is the biggest project the team is working on right now, Urquhart noted that it wasn’t and that there was another project in development that was bigger. It was “close” though and there was a “corridor” that the interviewer was mentioned as not being allowed to walk down.

The obvious assumption is some new Fallout title as is usually the case with Obsidian. But regardless, the developer clearly has big things planned even after Pillars of Eternity 2 wraps. The sequel is currently slated to release in 2018 for PC, Linux and Mac OS X. You can watch Eurogamer’s full tour of Obsidian Entertainment below.
