Feargus Urquhard the CEO of Obsidian Entertainment took the stage with Fredrik Wester CEO Paradox Interactive at the PC Gaming Show, the dedicated PC gaming E3 event to reveal the first expansion for Pillars of Eternity, The White March.
The Kickstarter born and raised game Pillars of Eternity is getting the first part of their expansion soon. It will be bringing a higher level cap, new abilities, new companions, more dungeons and plenty more.
The expansion was originally offered as a pledge add-on during its time on Kickstarter, but with the game's success it will be headed to all PC, Macs and Linux alike.
“Fans’ response to Pillars of Eternity has been incredible,” said Feargus Urquhart, CEO of Obsidian Entertainment. “We knew, when we started work on the game following our crowdfunding campaign, that we had the potential to create the kind of game we’d wanted to see again for a long time. Evidently, we weren’t alone in that. With The White March, we’re going to ensure that we live up to the praise we’ve received and the faith our fans have placed in us.”
“Our partnership with Obsidian couldn’t have started on a higher note than with Pillars of Eternity,” said Fredrik Wester, CEO of Paradox Interactive. “It was clear to us, from the beginning, that Obsidian had a deep connection to their fans, and with the tremendous success of Pillars of Eternity, there’s no doubt in our mind that they understand what players want from an RPG. We’re looking forward to working with their team for a long time to come.”
