Reigniting the old flame.

UPDATE: All owners of the game can go ahead and grab the Rum Runner's Pack for free. It adds six new alcohol-themed items and Mirke, a recruitable sidekick that really loves her booze.
If you don't own the Deluxe or Obsidian edition of the game, you can also now purchase the game's Sountrack separately.

Note: If you already own the first Pillars of Eternity on GOG, go to your library and look under Serial Keys. You should see a bonus code which you can use to redeem your Gaun's Pledge DLC for Pillars of Eternity II.

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire is here, DRM-free on GOG.com.
The sequel to Obsidian's seminal RPG, which brought back all the immersion and attention to detail we remember from the genre's classics, has finally arrived. Introducing naval battle mechanics, a new vast open world, a relationship system that now affects interactions between your companions, and an epic story involving the re-emergence of an old god, it might just become the RPG you'll be replaying for all eternity!

Go for the Deluxe Edition, which includes a Digital P&P Guide, the official OST, the second Volume of the Digital Guidebook and more. You can also grab that stuff separately inside the Explorer's Pack.
Or plan for the future with the Obsidian Edition, which also grants you access to the Season Pass, that contains the first three pieces of planned DLC.

For all those experiencing download problems (greyed out buttons) please try account refresh first:

https://www.gog.com/account/refresh

EDIT: single account refresh will work, please avoid refreshing the account multiple times. There is a slight lag due to the sheer amount of requests, but we are working on speeding things up.

Thank you for your patience.

EDIT2: If after refresh and you are using Galaxy Client and on your shelf you have any other version than "Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire", try buying free DLC for POE2 through the Client. That should force client cache refresh.
(DLC should be visible on Overview page [::PIC::])

previous BETA players
please switch from Public Beta to default branch to get the full version

AlienMind: That's right. That's why I don't use bullshit Galaxy or I could as well use Steam. He probably meant the ability to INSTALL the game on a new machine without the need of any account and or internet and or also extra packaging and handling on your part, and that IS possible after you fetch the game from the normal gog website, nowadays known as offline installers, and IS NOT possible using steam as you would have to .zip some obscure located files and hope these work on a new machine. That's why if you buy single player games here and jump through the hoop of manually selecting "classic installer" here on the download page, you get a DRM FREE game. So in conclusion: GOG is DRM FREE for single player games but really generally doesn't want to be anymore or they would not feel the need to push Galaxy so far up ones ass.
You know Galaxy isn't DRM, right? For that matter, neither is Steam by default. Many developers/publishers use the Steamworks DRM, but the reality is that there are games on Steam that can be played even if you no longer have a Steam client installed without any additional files (i.e. cracks). But Galaxy doesn't even require the very few hoops that those other things do. If you so choose to play a game without Galaxy, it won't break, bind of fail (most of the time. There have been a few cases of games choking on loss of Galaxy). But it is not DRM. The way it facilitates multiplayer could be seen as DRM since it requires you to connect and login, but that is inherent to any central server multiplayer and has less to do with GOG DRM than it does matchmaking.

Do you have all your fig extras? If so, you're good. Mine isn't the standard edition. Much like with any game that has multiple editions, the edition isn't usually listed in your library (unless they are different releases like Wasteland II and the DC) and instead the edition is decided by the extras you have. Unfortunately, while that happens in the library, the editions on the store still don't see you as owning them so nothing comes up as owned when you look in the store.

joacobarcala: Hi,
I did that but this file includes private information (serial number and other stuff) that honestly y I dont feel very comfortable sending. And without this file wont let me send any request.
Isnt any other way i can provide you my sistem Information? A mail or something?
The information from the system report will be only used in context of the support ticket you would send to GOG.com Support and nowhere else. It is required so we can identify the cause of the issue and help you.

However if you really would like to avoid sending us your technical system report, you should be able to submit an empty text file instead or use a different category for your message than "Game technical issues".

SeduceMePlz: That promotion required Steam and was explicitly to be redeemed on Steam. Why would you expect to see it on GOG?

https://eternity.obsidian.net/scavenger

Steps to start your seafaring adventure are simple:

1. Sign up to take part using Steam account details

2. Search for hidden codes in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire assets

3. Once you've found a code, sign in to your Captain's Logbook and enter the code

4. After you have enough codes entered for each item, your digital reward will be added to your Steam account. There are 10 items to unlock in total.

5. Once the game launches, your unlocked items will appear in your inventory

Pheace: You're mistaken. It's perfectly possible to copy the games in the infamous DRM-Free on Steam thread without having to do pretzels in your computer to get them running on another one.

Either way, even if you did, the difference would be in level of convenience, not whether something is DRM-Free or not.
You are mistaken. Plenty of games which do NOT run if you copy the file over to another fresh machine without steam installed.

paladin181: You know Galaxy isn't DRM, right? For that matter, neither is Steam
You do NOT get offline installers while only using galaxy. Hence you have no ability and guarentee to install the game without going online first. Why am I writing this? Are you all retarded?
Why am I the only one left here having a clear idea what DRM free means?
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!It's some setup.exe which will install the game on a fresh machine and after that the software is working in full without the need to phone somewhere else.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's OK that gog always dilutes this because they have other agendas now, but you people?
Have you betrayed us? Have you.. betrayed ME?

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and just assume you're simply unaware of the actual facts.

Here's the list I was talking about:

Oh. My. God.
I. Did. Ask. On. Official. Forum. Be. More. Polite.
There was just so chaotic these days, and I was just looking for new info regarding that. There was new info after I posted my question. Which. I. Found. Myself.
But there's nothing wrong asking this on gog forums.

Hi,
I just sent a message with an .odt file attached with all the specifications of my MAC to "other issues".
Hope you can help me..

shmerl: So far I wasn't able to start the game, it hangs on startup even with LD_LIBRARY_PATH pointing to its custom libsdl.

UPDATE: Apparently the game statically linked incorrect libsdl somewhere (pretty bad idea). Luckily someone found a proper workaround provided by SDL itself, to set SDL_DYNAMIC_API to the system .so. This worked for me:

SDL_DYNAMIC_API=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libSDL2-2.0.so.0
Can at least confirm this works. On Arch, its /usr/lib/libSDL2-2.0.so.0. Good work on the SDL devs to go through the hoops necessary to dynamically override statistically linked broken libraries...

I don't understand why they added Wasteland 2 to the promo instead of Pillars of Eternity: Definitive Edition.

GR00T: Does the Season Pass show for you in your library?
avatar
Pangaea666: Just checked now, and it doesn't show up. Hopefully it will soon-ish, well before the actual releases.
I know I preordered the Obsidian Edition and the Season Pass has not shown up in my game's library yet. But
I think the 3 DLCs will just appear in the library when there ready to go. So I'm not worried too much about it.

i_hope_you_rot: I don't understand why they added Wasteland 2 to the promo instead of Pillars of Eternity: Definitive Edition.
Likely they figured the vast majority of people buying PoE2 would already have PoE, so chances would be better they don't own Wasteland 2. And Obs has pretty close ties to inXile, so they're probably helping them drum up interest in Wasteland 3, which is upcoming this year as well.

Yeah, that's likely how it will work.

What GR00T said, but it would have been nice for people to have either option.

I guess a matter of price and sales.

PoE definitive edition is priced much higher than wasteland 2, and probably could get a surge of sales due to PoE 2.
