Yesterday, Owlcat Games released Arcane Unleashed, a new free DLC for Pathfinder: Kingmaker. And if the DLC's assortment of new magic-related options is not enough to lure you back into the Stolen Lands, you can now also participate in an open beta for Kingmaker's upcoming v1.3 patch. The beta patch notes that list changes and improvements to the game's areas, quests, kingdom management, classes, items, UI, and more ended up being so extensive, they had to be split into two separate Steam announcements (Part 1 and Part 2). Here are the highlights and you take things from there:
