Players embody Abi, a survivor returning to the poisoned surface of the world to rescue her lost family and restore the wild. Discover corrupted biomes and face off against twisted creatures born from a failed society. The trailer also features an original theme song with vocals by Julie Elven (Aloy’s Theme, Horizon Zero Dawn).

As you heal the world, its original inhabitants return. The Hântu are reawakened fauna — local creatures once driven to extinction — who join the fight and expand the player’s abilities. By feeding and leveling them up, players can craft their own team and playstyle, adapting their combat strategy on every run. In the skyship base, players can grow plants using the seeds and other resources gathered while exploring to unlock permanent buffs, evolve companions, and prepare for the next descent.

Every run sends players into a dynamic open world filled with hostile enemies. Use metroidvania-style traversal boons like a glider, grappling hook, or wall-running to reach and explore new biomes. Rebuild ecosystems through action: rewild the zones, reactivate Springs and bring back life one biome at a time. But beware — each victory brings a choice. Will they restore the memory of the world that was… or let hatred reshape it into something new?

While Rewilders isn’t a complete spiritual successor to Herobeat’s debut title Endling: Extinction is Forever, players can expect echoes of Endling’s heartfelt storytelling, lovingly designed aesthetics and score within, filled with messages that last well after the credits have finished rolling. The team was heavily inspired by the works of Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli films for conveying messages of ecological destruction, empowerment, and family while developing Rewilders. Utilizing creative audio-visual presentation and gameplay to tell evocative stories pulses through Herobeat’s development philosophy.

Watch the reveal trailer to get a glimpse of the adventures await in Rewilders: The Lost Spring.
