Markus Hirsilä 7 September 2018

Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire was released on May 8, 2018, for PC, with PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch versions set to follow later this year (you can read our review right here if you'd like to know what we thought of it).

Now we know about the next content drop coming to the game. The latest trailer for the game has a fancy name - Seeker, Slayer, Survivor - but in the end, it doesn't actually reveal that much. The point here is, however, that Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire's second major DLC Seeker, Slayer, Survivor, is going to become available starting on September 25.

Luckily we managed to find some more info from the official press release. Turns out that the DLC has a heavy focus on combat, "with a wide variety of deadly adversaries' hell bent on destruction".

When choosing a Seeker, "combat tasks players with looking for a solution to take down their foe". When choosing a Survivor, it will feature "combat that challenges fighting skills against waves of enemies". Finally, as a Slayer the "party will go up against some truly fearsome creatures in a battle to the death".

Aside from the DLC itself, there is also an update fixing bugs and making improvements to the overall balance of the game. Check out the trailer below.
