Obsidian’s return to the Pillars of Eternity franchise takes a big twist, this time playing as a first-person action-RPG set in a pirate-riddled region of Eora, The Living Lands. We’ve already played a good few hours of its opening areas, and are very confident this is going to be one of the games to beat in 2025—its combination of athletic antics and deep RPG questing is made even more appealing with a classless approach to creating your character. – John Walker
