Play Pathfinder 2e Online — Free Virtual Tabletop

Run your Pathfinder 2nd Edition campaigns on Realm VTT — the free virtual tabletop with ORC-licensed content, animated battle maps, dynamic lighting, and three-action economy icon support.

Realm VTT is a browser-based virtual tabletop designed for playing Pathfinder 2e online. Every new account is automatically linked with ORC-licensed Pathfinder 2nd Edition content modules — giving you creatures, spells, feats, conditions, and game data from Paizo's open content right out of the box. No additional purchases or imports required to get started.

Pathfinder 2e thrives on tactical positioning, flanking, and terrain. Realm VTT gives you grid-based battle maps with dynamic lighting, fog of war, and real-time line-of-sight — all free, no subscription required. Upload your own maps, use animated scenes with weather and environmental effects, or import Universal VTT files from Dungeondraft with walls and lighting pre-configured.

Top 5 Reasons to Play Pathfinder 2e on Realm VTT

1.

Free ORC-Licensed Content

ORC-licensed Pathfinder 2e content modules are automatically linked to every new Realm VTT account — creatures, spells, feats, conditions, and game data from Paizo's open content, ready to use immediately. No purchases, no imports, no setup.

2.

Free Dynamic Lighting & Fog of War

Dynamic lighting with real-time line-of-sight is free for every campaign. Darkvision, low-light vision, and light sources all work out of the box. On Roll20, the GM needs a paid subscription ($5.99+/month) just to enable dynamic lighting.

3.

Animated Battle Maps & UVTT Import

Native animated map support with weather effects, fire, and environmental hazards. Import Universal VTT files from Dungeondraft with walls and lighting pre-configured — ready for Pathfinder 2e's grid-based tactical combat.

4.

Generous Free Tier & No Player Limits

Realm VTT's free tier includes dynamic lighting, animated maps, and ORC content — features other platforms charge for. No player count restrictions, and Paizo's ORC openness means your content is never locked behind a platform.

5.

Three-Action Economy Icon Support

Realm VTT displays Pathfinder 2e's action icons — one-action, two-action, three-action, reaction, and free action glyphs — on spells, abilities, and features, so your players can quickly understand what each ability costs during play.
