Allow us to set the scene!

The Yondering Lands, where the game is set, is a richly layered papercraft world with every scene looking like it is straight out of a pop-up picture book. Reminiscent of tabletop roleplaying games, Worldwalker Games have paid loving attention in creating something truly unique, breaking moulds and exploring new ideas: forget orcs, elves, or goblins — how about telepathic insect-dragons and the clockwork undead instead?

Extreme character depth

Like the best tabletop roleplaying experiences, your characters and the choices you make are at the heart of Wildermyth. Each of your heroes has their own unique generated history, personality, and appearance, and will form relationships with your other heroes. All of these elements change and develop as characters age, encounter mysteries, and overcome challenges.

Choices that matter.

As your heroes journey from humble farmers to legendary warriors, you will encounter numerous events and situations that will present you with choices – some of which can have everlasting, character-defining effects.

…whether that’s in tactical battles against a myriad of malevolent creatures – using the right abilities to bolster allies or debilitate your enemies.

…or when you encounter one of the game’s many story events. Choosing to trust in the enigmatic wolf god may lead to some hair-raising changes in a hero’s appearance and combat abilities.

…and should romance blossom between your characters – further story developments and shared combat buffs may occur.

A new approach to death

There are, of course, times when the unthinkable may happen: character death. Should the worst occur, and a hero falls in battle, you’ll be presented with choices. Fall back and live to fight another day with permanent consequences or go out in a blaze of glory with one final strike and be remembered for generations to come.

No adventure can last forever, and as characters age and campaigns end, your heroes can be enshrined in a custom pantheon of legends, calling upon them in later playthroughs.

What’s new in Wildermyth: the Console Edition?

At Auroch Digital, we’ve been meticulous in ensuring that much loved experience from Wildermyth’s original release isn’t lost when optimizing it for consoles. With that in mind, we’ve redesigned the UI and controls with gamepad in mind, ensuring that in-game elements are easily readable and the controls feel intuitive for the best gaming experience.

Another new feature coming in Wildermyth: Console Edition is the Monster Compendium. This tactical tome provides an insight into the creatures you’ll face on your journeys through the Yondering Lands, as well as enchanting excerpts of lore and background information about the game’s various factions. We’re also introducing local cooperative multiplayer, allowing up to four players to take command of multiple characters and share in an unfolding story together.

If all of that wasn’t enough to get you excited, we have even more news to share!

Pick up the physical edition of Wildermyth: Console Edition and you’ll receive your very own Monster Compendium, the trusty tome made physical! Alongside this, you’ll also receive the Off-hand Item Skin Pack (DLC), which features a treasure trove of off-hand item skins, such as shields, torches, daggers and more!
