A fantasy RPG inspired by beloved classics such as Dragon Age: Origins, Neverwinter Nights 2, and even a smidge of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (time travelling!), The Waylanders is a party-based experience set in the Celtic and Medieval eras featuring innovative and technical combat to make it stand out all on its own.

Real-time combat with a tactical pause option, The Waylanders can be played from the classic isometric, top-down view but can also be shifted into third person perspective. Featuring unique character creation and a massive 36 character classes based on six basic classes and 30 more advanced ones means every play style imaginable can be accommodated. Its most innovative offering, is the introduction of formations whereby characters will combine into offensive formations allowing for deep combat tactics and enabling players to play the game their own way.

In The Waylanders, you lead a party of 5 characters, utilizing over 800 different skills, to overcome challenges and defeat your enemies.

Gato Salvaje Studio has released an Early Access update to The Waylanders, containing two new quests, The Corrupted Coven and The Agate Eye, which take players deep into the caves of the Underworld to finish the events of Act 1. The Seer Nazhedja has asked the party to join her in a search for traces of her sisters, but terrible powers are unleashed when a group attempts to channel the power of corruption. 

In addition to the new quest content, this update also includes a revised tutorial, UI/UX improvements, and community requested bug fixes. 

The Waylanders team has also shared their winter roadmap. The three updates planned for December and January will address community feedback on combat and cinematics, introduce photo mode, and add localization for the game in Spanish, French, German, Simplified Chinese, Russian, and Galician.

• Real time combat with tactical pause, character creation and 36 classes (6 basic and 30 advanced)
