They say friendship comes about when two people complement each other. In Weakless, this is not just a mere observation of human interaction, it’s a very palpable thing.

The player takes control of two unusual Weavelings – carefree, wooden creatures – and aids them in their unplanned journey. The task won’t be easy, as one of them is deaf, and the other blind. To find their way back home and save their world from the advancing Rot, they will have to cooperate, face their limitations and prove to the world that what’s always been considered a weakness can in fact be a mighty advantage.

Travel through breathtaking environments filled with the secrets of a fallen civilization. Experience a story about friendship, discovery and finding strengths in your weaknesses.

If you’re heading to Cologne and would like to put your hands on at the game at Gamescom, you’ll be able to meet the developers in the Entertainment Area, Hall 4.1, Booth B-071.
