Paizo’s ‘Starfinder’ Will Become a Fully Funded Video Game

Paizo, the publisher behind the popular role-playing game Starfinder, has announced plans to develop a video game adaptation of the sci-fi franchise. Titled 'Starfinder: Afterlight,' the project is scheduled for release in 2027 and aims to capture the essence of the tabletop RPG. The video game is being developed in partnership with a yet-to-be-announced studio and will be fully funded, ensuring a smooth development process. Paizo's goal is to replicate the success of Larian Studios' Baldur's Gate 3, which has generated significant interest and acclaim among fans of the Dungeons & Dragons universe. While details about the game's mechanics, story, and overall scope are still limited, the announcement has generated excitement among Starfinder enthusiasts. The video game adaptation is seen as an opportunity to introduce the Starfinder universe to a wider audience and potentially expand the franchise's reach beyond its tabletop roots.
