Your homeworld in Boundless looks and feels unique, procedurally generated to look like no other. You don’t like it? Hey, acid rain can be a serious drag. No worries! Build a Portal and instantly step into another world in the Boundless universe. Ah, a beautiful pistachio-colored, livestock-rich nirvana — much better for a farmer like you.

The universe is huge and disparate. When you open a Portal to a new world you never know what you’ll get — sometimes you’ll thrive, sometimes you’ll have to fight to survive.

When you find that world you really like (you know, the one with *that* amazing waterfall), why not make if your official home and claim some land using a Beacon. Any land you claim will become yours, and yours alone to change.

Boundless has been in development since 2014 and is due to hit both PC via Steam and PS4 later this year. As part of the deal, Square Enix Collective announces it will publish and support the PC version of Boundless, with developer Wonderstruck in tandem handling the game’s release on Sony’s console.

“Boundless has been on our radar for some time, and it’s genuinely thrilling to be able to come together with the team at Wonderstruck to help bring the game to Steam,” offers Phil Elliott, Director of Indie Publishing at Square Enix West. “It’s a game which, to me, feels like nothing else I’ve played. The universe is constantly evolving, and that’s because everything in the game is made by the players - everything you do, you do in the full view of everybody else that plays the game. This gives the choices you make, and actions you take, so much more meaning.”

Ahead of its release, players involved in the Early Access version have already collaborated to create varied and sprawling cities on multiple different worlds across the game’s universe, building a fluid and vibrant environment that bodes well for Boundless’ full debut.  

“Partnering with Square Enix Collective on the PC version of Boundless is a big step forward for us here at Wonderstruck,” says James Austin, Director of Wonderstruck. “They get what we’re trying to do and I think they’re going to do an amazing job of conveying everything the game has to offer to what we hope will be an excited and growing group of gamers.”

That is, of course, unless you want some neighbors, in which case invite your friends and form a guild. Share land, resources, build amazing things and go on some adventures together. Compete with other guilds and become the most loved, or feared, group in the universe.

Search each new world to discover the location of its ancient Titan. Once activated, these huge sentient fortresses menacingly stalk the landscape searching for anything they perceive as a threat. These apex predators are filled with traps and swarming with deadly Protectors.

Attempted alone, your only hope is to explore, survive and escape with a handful of valuable resources. If you’re feeling brave, call together all the citizens of your adopted world and attempt the impossible — defeat the Titan.

Boundless is a physical sandbox, where you can grapple up to inaccessible mountain ledges and slide down ice paths into the deepest caves. Harvest Titan’s mechanical guts and re-purpose them to make your own floating airships and ingenious contraptions. Fulfill your lifelong dream of becoming a space pirate! It’s the ultimate sandbox, create whatever you can dream of and share it with the world.

In  Boundless your character is unique and your role is free to be defined. You can succeed by doing the things you love, and use coin to shortcut the things you don’t. Here’s just a few examples of how you can make your mark in Boundless:

• Hunt for creatures in dangerous areas and sell the rare loot and materials you find to non-combative citizens.
• Offer your services as a master-builder to other citizens and do honest work for coin.
• Collect the weirdest creatures from across the universe and open a space zoo (!), then charge citizens coin to visit.
• Create amazing sandbox contraptions like people cannons and hyper-efficient crafting machines, and then sell copies of the blueprints to other players so they can create them too.
• Collect the most valuable and rarest resources from across the universe and open a shop that citizens will flock to.
• Open a Portal hub, connecting your world to distant worlds across the universe and allow citizens to travel, for a fee of course!
• Become a Boundless real estate agent, by searching for and claiming the coolest plots of land and then selling them to other players for coin.
• Craft the coolest wearables, the tint them to perfection and open a boutique fashion store.
