The Pathfinder (before he became the Warden) is getting all the more intriguing with every glimpse we get of him in the run-up to Cronos: Lazarus’s release. We already know he’s looking for a special somebody in violation of The Collective’s orders, and it seems like it was a Traveller who fell prey to the Orphan’s onslaught.
He’s clearly trying to extract their memories against the wishes of his masters, and it’s going to be interesting to see if The Envoy can find enough reasons to pause and lend him a sympathetic ear during one of those “hunter becomes the haunted” missions. Outside of that, he’s shaping up to be a powerhouse, using his teleportation and decoy abilities to take on enemies with far more agression that we were used to in the base game.
We’re hoping that these shake-ups on the narrative and gameplay fronts will be enough to make this one a worthy addition to an already solid base game. Perhaps it can set the foundations for future additions to the IP if there’s the space for that kind of thing. Until then, though, the trailer’s below, and we think it’s definitely worth a watch ahead of Lazarus’s launch this Fall.
