Paizo retailer listings reveal four Pathfinder books for 2027, including Waking Tigers

If you are planning a Pathfinder 2e table for 2027, start setting money and shelf space aside now for March 3. That is the date on retailer listings for Pathfinder Waking Tigers Adventure Path, and the book looks like the clearest signal yet that Paizo is steering deeper into setting-forward campaigns with built-in support material rather than one-off dungeons.

Waking Tigers is listed as a 256-page Adventure Path for four Pathfinder Second Edition characters, beginning at 1st level and carrying the party to 11th level. The listing also points to a gazetteer of Hwanggot, along with new items and monsters, which is exactly the kind of payload that makes an AP worth tracking before the official announcement cycle even starts. For GMs, that means a long campaign frame; for players, it means a clean onboarding point if a group wants to build around a fresh region instead of stitching together older material.

The Hwanggot angle matters. Hwanggot sits in Tian Xia, the eastern continent of Golarion, and has long been described as the Kingdom of Flowers, a hereditary monarchy ruled by Queen Hyeon Geon-ji. Its capital, Haseong, is the cosmopolitan center of the realm. That gives Waking Tigers a very specific flavor: not just another wilderness crawl, but a campaign that can lean hard into court politics, regional identity, and the kind of location detail that lets a table stay inside one corner of Golarion for months. If your current game already has roots in Tian Xia, this is the one to budget for.

The larger 2027 slate backs that up. Retail listings also point to Lost Omens: The Unseen World for January 6, Legacy of the Forge for February 3, and Chronicles of the Pathfinder Society for March 3, the same day as Waking Tigers. Paizo updates its Pathfinder release schedule monthly as new products are announced, and the Adventure Path line remains a monthly format with support articles and a free Player’s Guide for each path. Taken together, the books suggest a year built around setting lore, equipment, organized play, and a marquee AP that can anchor an entire campaign block. Waking Tigers is not just another title on a list. It looks like the book that shows where Pathfinder is headed next.
