Paizo Publishing has announced plans to release a fourth book of monsters for its widely popular Pathfinder role-playing game.  The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Bestiary 4 will feature more than 250 creatures for use with the game.

Bestiary 4 will include monsters suitable for every level of characters, but this collection will feature foes of higher power than any included in the earlier Bestiary books.  Creatures the likes of demon lords, clockwork dragons, and Lovecraftian "Great Old Ones"--even Cthulhu himself--are part of the book and are designed to challenge the new “mythic” level characters that will be the focus of the up-coming Mythic Adventures supplement for Pathfinder.  New allies and character-friendly races are also part of the mix.

The book will be over 300 pages, and will have a suggested retail price of $39.99.

Pathfinder continues to be popular with both gamers and critics.  It was the top-selling roleplaying game in Fall, 2012 (see "Top 5 RPGs--Fall 2012").
