ACGJeremy PenterSep 2021"Pathfinder offers its own spin in the genre and while massive, complex, and at times unwieldy, the ability to customize almost everything elevates the game beyond its assorted bugs and sometimes lackluster story beats."

GameSpaceCatherine DaroSep 20219.5/10Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is a bold, dark, epic saga, featuring an astonishing replayability value. The developers have experimented with Kingmaker, and have gone all-in with Wrath of the Righteous, creating one of the best story-driven CRPGs of late.

FextralifeSep 20218.8/10Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is a massive accomplishment in the CRPG space. The game has a lot of improvements when it comes to systems and mechanics, making it more accessible to new players and veterans alike while managing to deliver new and interesting content. If you've been meaning to dive into the immersive world of the Pathfinder Series, you certainly won't be disappointed with WotR.

TheSixthAxisGareth ChadwickNov 20226/10I adore so much of Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, from being able to play as an undead lich, to how the story adapts to that choice like you're playing through an incredibly detailed dark fantasy book. That's why I'm almost devastated by the game's lack of polish. It's unbalanced, there's bugs that forced regular restarts, and the console UI isn't suited to managing a crusade, which isn't as interesting as kingdom management. If this is your kind of game, you're better off trying to play on PC. Otherwise, you can join me in enjoying the game despite itself, or play Kingmaker until this has had some significant patches.

RPG SiteBryan VitaleOct 20217/10Wrath of the Righteous is an extensive and ambitious RPG with plenty of spectacle, but a bloat of gameplay systems and unrefined ideas weigh down the experience.
