Players can delve through the dungeon using a provided pregenerated character, or<\/p>\n<p>create their own. The box is designed to slowly introduce players to core game concepts, increasing in complexity and difficulty until\u00a0they reach a climactic final menace. The event is tailored to connect players all across the world and give them an opportunity to try out the award winning system until April 21.<\/p>\n<p>This is the third annual event aimed at bringing new players to the TTRPG hobby. The first Beginner Box Day in 2022 was a huge\u00a0success, followed in 2023 by the first week-long expansion. Both events boasted over 300 players and 60 gamemasters running<\/p>\n<p>dozens of tables of the starter adventure: Menace Under Otari. The first event also coincided with the release of Paizo\u2019s deluxe\u00a0Foundry VTT module release, and a generous donation enabled every GM to secure a free copy of it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast year, the Beginner Box sold out worldwide, but thanks to our event, players were still able to experience it,\u201d said lead organizer\u00a0and r\/Pathfinder2e mod Pete Zupan. \u201cPathfinder was remastered for its new license, and this year we\u2019ll be focused on helping players learn that edition of the game under the moniker: Age of the ORC.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Paizo, makers of the award winning Pathfinder and Starfinder tabletop roleplaying games, have begun releasing reworked versions\u00a0of their materials under the Open RPG Creative license (\u201cORC License\u201d).

The Beginner Box is available in\u00a0physical and digital versions, including several virtual tabletop options.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Pathfinder Beginner Box is the best way to get started playing Pathfinder, and Beginner Box Days are a wonderful way for the\u00a0community to come together and start new adventures!&#8221; Rue, Marketing and Media Specialist at Paizo, said regarding the event, &#8220;We appreciate the time, energy, and love put into this event by the community, and are excited to see it continue.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The event is currently open for player registration with over 130 available games over the week. Companies like Roll20, Demiplane,\u00a0and Foundry VTT have helped support the event with prizes players can win through raffle, discounts, and supplying gamemasters\u00a0with free materials.
