Pathfinder Announces New Lost Omens Book, Plus Remastered Version of Treasure Vault

Paizo has announced two new Pathfinder books set for release later this year. In June of this year, Paizo will release Pathfinder Lost Omens Shining Kingdoms and Pathfinder: Treasure Vault (Remastered). The former is a new lore book focused on the Shining Kingdoms, a collection of six key nations of the Inner Sea. The new lorebook will explore Andoran, Druma, the Five Kings Mountains, Galt, Kyonin, and Taldor. The book features in-depth histories of all six nations, gazetteers on the six kingdoms, and a look at a major city in each kingdom. While the Lost Omens book focus primarily on lore, the book will include new character options like archetypes, equipment, magic items, spells, and animal companions.

Treasure Vault (Remastered) is a new version of the Treasure Vault originally released in 2023 with rules tweaked to bring them in line with the Pathfinder 2E Remaster ruleset. The description for the book is exactly the same as the original Treasure Vault rulebook, which contained rules for 600 items including 50 weapons and 100 alchemical items.

Both books will be released in June 2025, with Shining Kingdoms having a retail price of $59.99 and Treasure Vault (Remastered) having a retail price of $64.99.

I mean it is not a bid deal, it just surprised me as I thought a big point of the remaster was to get further away from WotC designs / IP.

I think you are right that the art director missed this. They probably asked for a diabolic and didn't look closely at what was delivered.

According to the initial posting for this book by Paizo on January 5th "Product images and descriptions are not final and are subject to change". The book is out in June so it's possible this dragon image won't be used.

I stopped looking at 5e artwork with The Scandal. So, any similarity would be lost on me. That being said, that "look" of dragons very iconic of dragons in fantasy. It would be a really bold statement to say that it belongs to WotC. And since dragons are no longer color coded, you can get any "style" of dragon in any color and it would technically be acceptable. But either way, I wouldn't be too concerned.

Well that red dragon design dates back to 2001 with 3e, so not a recent thing!

Also, to bad. The 2024 dragon redesigns are pretty great.

Not exactly what I was saying. I was saying it didn't match the pazio red dragon design and did match the WotC version. Which is odd any way you look at it. However, it was pointed out that the remastered 2e doesn't even have red dragons any more. So probably a miss on a few levels!
