Greetings, Pathfinders! The long-awaited A Dance of Masks DLC will be released on June 13! Wishlist the DLC to be the first to go on this new adventure. And if you have Season Pass 2, the DLC will automatically become available on release day.

A Dance of Masks is the sixth and final premium DLC for Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous in Season Pass 2, one last love letter to the Knight Commander and their loyal companions. Gather all your companions and travel back to where it all started – the city of Kenabres, destroyed and now risen from the ashes. Visit a festival, celebrate your victories, socialize with friends and loved ones, watch the fireworks… And thwart the plans of villains trying to spoil the fun!

What can you expect from the DLC?

A new adventure will take you back to Kenabres and beyond: to a new enemy's stronghold!
Personal events for every companion — you’ve seen them fight, now watch them have a day off;
A new romantic event with every romanceable companion;
An otherworldly arena where you can test your might against some truly mythic enemies;
11 new character archetypes, a new weapon and the ability to switch your grip on the weapon from one-handed to two-handed!
Fully voiced dialogues!

Wishlist A Dance of Masks DLC now!

Having an arena to test endgame builds would actually be pretty fun. The rest of everything....ehh idk. Doesn't excite me.

They said the same for Lord of nothing giving the impression there would be a full dungeon while it was an empty map with 1 (one) fight...

Yea idk what's up with that. How hard is it to either make a good alternate campaign (ideally being able to import the party) or just make an extra region a la bethesda that just doesn't suck?

It doesn't seem so bad, but then again my expectations were low to begin with... a somewhat chill DLC that fleshes out the party members' stories might actually be a good thing if they actually bother to factor in your in-game choices when writing the DLC content.

Having fully voiced dialogues as a feature might be a bad omen as voice acting can get expensive for a studio like Owlcat and it also adds another layer of complexity to script and dialogue writing.

And of course I wish they had done a dungeon crawl DLC. All in all, IMHO so far the best DLC Owlcat put out was Varnhold's Lot for Kingmaker, as low level (1-10) dungeon delving is where the Pathfinder system and combat oriented TTRPGs really shine.
