There are dragons on the horizon! Or there are bandits! There are... evil warlocks? Killer bugs? Trolls? There's a lot out there, but most of it is at the whim of the game master in Knights of Pen & Paper. RPG fanatics will recognize this game from five years ago about a Dungeons & Dragons-style pen and paper RPG come to life. Now it's catching up to current-gen consoles.

Knights of Pen & Paper +1 Deluxier Edition brings in the original 2013 campaign and adds to it significantly. Players can experience an extended campaign with new dungeons. They'll also find The Tavern, where they can now swap heroes in and out. The Haunted Fall expansion is also included at no extra charge, making this feel like a complete Knights of Pen & Paper experience.

The original 2013 Knights of Pen & Paper was a fun, if simplistic, RPG experience, filled with easy-to-grasp mechanics and copious amounts of humor, both in the game's writing and also in some of its design. The ability to pick out-of-the-box classes made it a fun game to play through. But now it's set to come to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on May 29 for $14.99.

Don't need any of the extra bells and whistles and just want to see what the original game was about? The original vanilla version of Knights of Pen & Paper +1 Edition is currently on sale on Steam for $2.49 through May 14.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
