From Paizo Inc:
Publisher Erik Mona opened PaizoCon 2022 with an energetic, one-hour Keynote Address on the state of the Pathfinder and Starfinder roleplaying games. Highlighting the convention are the Starfinder Drift Crisis Meta-Event and upcoming Pathfinder Dark Archive hardcover rulebook. PaizoCon 2022 runs today through May 29 at the DoubleTree Hotel, and through May 30 on @OfficialPaizo on Twitch and on Discord.
Mona’s Keynote Address covered a wide variety of details on previously announced products, including the Kingmaker Adventure Path slate of products, which backers are expected to receive in September with a retail release expected in October. New products announced in the Keynote include the Starfinder Drift Crisis Case Files Adventure, which are three short mystery adventures set in the aftermath of the Drift Crisis, the Pathfinder Treasure Vault hardcover rulebook filled with high-fantasy mundane, alchemical and magical items, and the paranormal-themed, three-part Pathfinder Gatewalkers Adventure Path, complimenting the similarly themed Dark Archive rulebook. Staff panels over the weekend, both on @OfficialPaizo on Twitch and at the physical con, will provide deeper detail on many RPG products and topics.
Starfinder Drift Crisis Meta-Event Highlights:
● The Drift Crisis is a year-long publishing event that covers rulebooks, Adventure Paths, Organized Play, and all aspects of the Starfinder world and product line.
● The Drift Crisis involves the Drift, Paizo’s hyperspace dimension, malfunctioning. Bits of the other dimensions spill out into space, while once-reliable distances between worlds become unpredictable. Pirates and other opportunists move in to create a current conflict that touches all parts of the galaxy.
● The event kicks off with the now-available Drift Crisis hardcover, which provides rules, advice, and campaign seeds that tie the Crisis into existing Starfinder adventures or the home campaigns of players.
● The action continues in the Free RPG Day adventure Skitterwarp on June 25th, the three-part Drift Crashers Adventure Path (June-October), and the Drift Hackers Adventure Path (December-April 2023).
Pathfinder Dark Archive Highlights:
● The book is comprised of eight dossiers on various paranormal subjects like cryptids, secret societies, curses and pacts.
● Dark Archive also features two new Pathfinder classes: the psychic and the thaumaturge.
