Over 70,000 people pledged over $4 million to bring Pillars of Eternity into existence, and we think that's a fact worth celebrating. So stand tall and proud, armoured fantasy man, for your triumphant cover pose represents the confident return of the old-school RPG. No, no, don't worry. There is definitely not a dragon sneaking up behind you.
Andy was given exclusive insight into the Obsidian RPG, and you can find his report inside the November issue of PC Gamer UK. We did more, too; seeking out Hello Games' Sean Murray for a chat about the magic number that powers No Man's Sky. After that, we moved mountains to bring you an exclusive look at Far Cry 4's powerful level editor.
That's not all. This issue you can get a free Steam key for Space Hack, and an exclusive New Players Pack for The Secret World. The issue, which is in shops now, can be ordered through My Favourite Magazines. Digitally, you'll find it on the App Store, Google Play, and Zinio, and you can subscribe to get issues delivered directly to your door. Read on for a look at the subs cover, and a round-up of the features to be found in issue 271.
