Obsidian has detailed the first three post-launch DLC expansions for its seafaring RPG sequel Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire, which arrives on PC on May 8th.
Each DLC builds on Pillars of Eternity 2's swashbuckling nautical core, and sees players exploring strange new islands as they voyage further across the tropical Deadfire Archipelago. According to Obsidian, every expansion will introduce "new quests that will add to the lore of the Deadfire, new areas to discover, new secrets to reveal, and a whole host of new characters to meet and challenges to overcome".
First out of the gate is Beast Of Winter, which is currently scheduled for release in July. This sees your party embark on an adventure to a distant island where a doomsday cult hides a powerful secret. Eventually, says Obsidian, your quest will lead to The Beyond, "a mysterious dimension populated by ancient souls and filled with devilish challenges".
