The Waylanders Release Postponed

Gato Studio’s Dragon Age-inspired time-travel RPG The Waylanders was originally supposed to be leaving early access later this month. However, due to some very much expected delays, the game’s launch had to be postponed to February 2, 2022. In the meantime, the game’s early access build will be getting some updates improving the currently-available content.

Here’s more on that:

Dear The Waylanders fans,

We’ve made the decision to delay the launch of The Waylanders to February 2, 2022.

Releasing this month as we’d planned would not provide the quality experience our fans deserve. While we have been working hard to get all our backers and Early Access players the RPG they’d been hoping for before the holidays, we’ve done an internal review pass on The Waylanders and our team needs more time to polish the game.

Developing during Covid has been challenging for many teams, including ours, and rushing The Waylanders out the door after nearly four years of development will not make anyone happy.

To help tide players over until the new release date, The Waylanders Early Access build will receive new updates, improving several currently available areas of the game, such as The Cave of Eternity and the Fomorian World in The Corrupted Cove. The update will also add remaining text localization for multiple Celtic era quests and fix community reported bugs.

The Waylanders will have over two hours of cinematics and more than thirty hours of gameplay, and we want to provide the best possible version of this story to all of you.

Thanks for your invaluable support and patience.

The Dev team
