Where did you find it?
Click on that link.
I mean, yeah, the link goes to the player guide, but I would also be interested to know where I was supposed to find it if someone hadn't thrown it here. Because I can't find a link to the guide on the hellbreaker store page like I can for the rest of the AP.

someone chucked the link in the hellbreakers discord channel, literally like 2 minutes before I was going to manually check if it was up myself.

I am also surprised there aren't more comments, though! I imagine people are out there playing it ^_^

personally i'm stuck waiting for street date and (hopefully) the fvtt module to drop tomorrow! we just did (most of) our session 0 yesterday though, so we'll be ready to start next monday.

but i've been freely yapping away in the hellbreakers discord channel since that got made.

I am curious why there are the original 4 books for foundry vtt and now there is this one new book for foundry vtt. Are both of these the same? If you already bought season of ghosts, wouldn't it automatically update to remastered or no? Are you getting the same maps in both? I haven't bought either, but curious as the single, remastered version is also cheaper.

The original 4 modules continue to be available, if you prefer the OGL based version (As adapted for remaster use in the FVTT PF2e system).

The new, remastered, compilated version, reflects all changes made in the remastered hardcover, plus additional fixes and additions specific for the collected module, such as a new dice set, including the OST in the purchase price, better integration of newer foundry features like animated doors and portals, and expanded and redrawn maps with seasonal variants. I believe the remastered version also technically does include the maps from the original modules, if you so preferred.

You do not get upgraded or any form of free switch between the two versions.

Especially given the new combined module is already included in FVTT Store sales (20% off until the 25th!!!) I would recommend just getting the new one, unless you desperately want to give paizo/metamorphic/foundry more money for a marginally less modernised experience.

If I already purchased the PDF before the remaster, do I need to purchase it again to play the remastered version?

yes. the compilations are a stand-alone product. this also goes for the FVTT modules.


These days I would always encourage just buying FVTT modules directly from the FVTT store. They routinely have 20% off Sales about 3-4 times a year (and you can even see that the sale exists and what the total is, unlike the paizo store!)

The only reason to buy from paizo directly, following the removal of the pdf+fvtt bundles from their store offering, is if you are a Paizo Plus subscriber and care about loyalty points.

This is also true of the remastered Players Guide!

It's also a bit disappointing to see the remastered Players Guide still lacks the Friendly Greeting clause in the Eight Practices! Especially after the paizo bsky account directly said to me "nothing will be missing" when I asked about that discrepancy.


$65 is a great price point! I was worried with reference to gatewalkers remaster price, and SoG being a 4 book, it'd end up closer to $100.

And especially when it includes the OST, too!

losing the pdf+foundry option is a shame. I run exclusively via foundry, but frequently use the pdf on a second screen because sometimes the way information is formatted when ported over to foundry isn't the most intuitive or easy to manage (eg when you have to flip back and forth a lot between chapters/sections, or sometimes sidebars get included under a preceding section instead of within a section to which they actually relate)


this is super cool to see, but i hope the "monsters" go a bit further than colourful skinned humanoid twinks and a guy that looks like Dabi from My hero Academia!

There's so many little oddities and misshapes that a remaster pass through the AP would really fix up and elevate SoG even further, and would also give a chance for any other minor fine tuning and clarifications, like maybe being able to lean more on the TXCG and LOTX:WG content.

Any re-release probably would come too late for my currently ongoing campaign, but I would love to see it for anyone yet to experience the joy of Season of Ghosts.
