If you're like me, you probably thought that Fantasy Grounds and d20 Pro (both virtual tabletops) already had official Pathfinder content. Fantasy Grounds already has official D&D content, and other games. Apparently that was not the case, as Paizo has just announced that Pathfinder is now on both. Roll20, probably the world's largest VTT, is notably absent, but perhaps that's coming? "Paizo Inc., publisher of the award-winning Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and Pathfinder Adventure Card Game, announces today agreements with Mesa Mundi Inc. and SmiteWorks to deliver official Pathfinder RPG content to millions of gamers through their leading virtual tabletops, D20PRO and Fantasy Grounds, respectively." Anyhow, here's the full announcement.
Paizo Inc., publisher of the award-winning Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and Pathfinder Adventure Card Game, announces today agreements with Mesa Mundi Inc. and SmiteWorks to deliver official Pathfinder RPG content to millions of gamers through their leading virtual tabletops, D20PRO and Fantasy Grounds, respectively.
"I am a long time fan of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and I am excited to begin working with Paizo to release official content," says SmiteWorks' president Doug Davison. "We believe that Fantasy Grounds already does a great job supporting the game system with many tools to help automate the game, share maps, track combat and speed up DM prep both at the table and online. I am ecstatic that we can now share the great adventure paths, with modules soon and monthly releases next year."
Says Tobias Drewry, CEO of Mesa Mundi, Inc., "Adding officially licensed Pathfinder material to D20PRO tops many of our users' wish lists. D20PRO already offers deep support for the Pathfinder system, including automated combat and effects, skills, spells, movement and more. We are thrilled to level this up with the addition of Paizo's rich library of official content."
Doug Davison also said, separately:
"We had a big announcement for my game company (SmiteWorks) today. Pathfinder is one of the remaining large RPG gaming properties that we still had left to secure and we just signed a license agreement with them that was years in the making. I began working on this deal in 2009 when I first bought SmiteWorks and the persistence has finally paid off.
While it makes great news for our business, on a personal level, this gives me a chance to work on yet another brand and property that I greatly admire and for a game that I've played many, many times. I feel truly blessed for the opportunity to work with the fine folks at Wizards of the Coast for Dungeons & Dragons, Pinnacle Entertainment Games for Savage Worlds, Chaosium, Green Ronin, AAW Games, Troll Lord Games, numerous smaller independent companies and artists and now Paizo for their Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.
Now I just need Star Wars, Marvel and Games Workshop."
Fantasy Grounds is also working on a WOIN ruleset for its VTT.
