'Wayfinder' Shows Off Gameplay, Closed Beta Next Week, Accepting Sign-ups - Trailer

by Rainier on Feb. 23, 2023 @ 2:11 p.m. PST

Wayfinder is a new character-based, online action/RPG that delivers endless action adventure as players work to control the chaos and reconnect a fractured world.

Wayfinder development is led by creative director Joe ‘Mad’ Madureira (Battle Chasers, Darksiders, Ruined King: A League of Legends Story).

The world of Evenor is being consumed by the foul force of the Gloom. As Wayfinders, lights amidst the darkness in a world consumed by Gloom, players must control the chaos and reconnect a fractured world as they choose a unique path through an online world of endless action and adventure. To cease the Gloom’s devastating decay of Evenor, players will choose from a variety of Wayfinders (characters) to control, each with their own unique story, play styles, and abilities, harnessing their power together to defend Evenor from forces that seek to destroy it.

Uniting with fellow Wayfinders, players will use their Gloom Dagger to adventure into Lost Zones - dungeon-like areas touched and consumed by the Gloom – resulting in shifting change and chaos. Wayfinders can control the chaos with their Gloom Dagger, an ancient artifact of obscure origin, strategically implementing mutators that can dictate enemies encountered, items and resources dropped, and more. Wayfinders attempting to control this chaos will find the Gloom pushing back - implementing its own augmentations and modifiers to enemy damage, environmental hazards, and more where no two play sessions are the same.

Sign up for the Closed Beta on PS4, PS5 or PC.

If chosen, you’ll be one of the first to experience Wayfinder and help shape how the game develops!

UPCOMING BETA SCHEDULE

February 28, 2023 - Wayfinder Closed Beta - PlayStation 5 and PC. (Additional betas will be announced at a later date.)

May 2023: Early Access - PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC

Key Features:

  • CONTROL THE CHAOS: Customize every play experience by stepping through a doorway of endless action with the help of a mysterious device known as a Gloom Dagger. Each adventure has unique modifiers and challenges you conjure and control, customizing what you hunt, and gather.
  • BECOME A WAYFINDER: Born of the Gloom, Wayfinders wield arcane magic, mystical tech, or cunning weapons, to restore the balance of a broken world. Customize the way you fight by choosing your weapons and gear and augmenting your powers with the Echoes of your fallen foes.
  • EXPLORE AND COLLECT: Embark on hunts and expeditions to discover new locations, battle new enemies and even awaken powerful Wayfinders.  Collect and craft weapons and gear as you complete your Atlas and increase Mastery.  Participate in live events with ongoing character-driven content updates.
  • STRONGER TOGETHER: Wayfinders are stronger together. From adventuring with friends to developing your Apartment and its powerful buffs to a neighborhood, all of your social interactions, character and housing progression are tied together by the most important thread... each other.

Wayfinder will operate an Early Access Program in Spring 2023 on PS4, PS5 and PC (Steam), and will be free-to-play on multiple platforms in Fall 2023.
