This article covers the Pathfinder Playtest adventure compilation. For the actual-play livestream series of Paizo staff playing its contents, see Doomsday Dawn (livestream).

Doomsday Dawn, a Pathfinder Playtest adventure by Logan Bonner, Jason Bulmahn, James Jacobs, Amanda Hamon, Stephen Radney-MacFarland, and Mark Seifter, was released on August 2, 2018. Each of the 96-page super-adventure's seven multi-encounter scenarios is designed to test specific elements of the playtest rules and was the focus of a 2-week feedback cycle during the Pathfinder Playtest between August and November 2018. With adventures spanning all 20 levels and featuring most of the game's newest rules, Doomsday Dawn provides a thrilling tour of the new rules, and of the Pathfinder world itself!

The Final Countdown!

Mysterious ancient artifacts from sand-choked Osirion count down the years until a rare planetary conjunction that will align Pathfinder's world of Golarion with the hostile planet Aucturn, allowing the ravenous hordes of the Dominion of the Black to surge forth and harvest the brains of the Inner Sea, remaking the world in their terrible, alien image. Doomsday Dawn takes the heroes on a decade-long journey throughout Golarion as they attempt to understand and defeat the otherworldy menace and avoid utter catastrophe. This collection of seven multi-encounter scenarios is designed to introduce the Pathfinder Playtest rules in a guided, shared playtest experience coinciding with regular surveys and feedback from players like you!
