- The Waylanders Post-launch Roadmap - 28 February 2022
Hi everyone! Just a quick update on what we’re working on. The next update, which should be released in early March, will add more quest fixes focusing on bugs found in the main storyline and companion loyalty missions. We’ll be improving medieval era cutscenes and fixing a bug that stops some companion torque scenes from triggering. More fixes will be included in this update solving problems with party selection, quest selection, some codexes not unlocking properly, and other smaller bugs. We have another update planned for early April focusing on a variety of bug fixes, gameplay tweaks, and improvements to boss battles. We’re going to add new quests for Tiana and Lugaid in this update along with new Steam achievements for some of the final quests as well. The last update planned in our roadmap, currently set for early May, will address game performance, especially in bigger medieval m…

- The Journey of a Thousand Years Begins Today! The Waylanders is out now! - 2 February 2022
Hi Everyone! Fernando Prieto, co-founder of Gato Salvaje Studio here! The Waylanders is out today! This is a project we’ve been working on for the last five years and I am so incredibly proud of the journey this team has taken us on. This is a story born of our Galician roots and many of the tales of our heritage have inspired elements throughout the game. First, we have an amazing trailer to share with you. I hope you enjoy it! Thank you so much to the entire Early Access community and our early backers for all your feedback and time spent exploring the Celtic Era. Your suggestions and bug reports have made The Waylanders a better game and pushed us to examine certain quality-of-life features that weren’t on our development schedule when we started, but with them, The Waylanders is much improved. In an earlier post, we’d mentioned that the price of The Waylanders would be increasing. W…
- The Waylanders review: a classic RPG that's as endearing as it is janky - 1 February 2022
I keep trying to figure out how to describe The Waylanders ’ unique blend of endearment and jank. Unfortunately I am cursed with chronic writer’s brain so all I can come up with is this: it feels like a really good first draft. For every aspect of worldbuilding that I enjoyed, there was a bug that had to be overlooked. For every character that I found charming, there was some voiceover that was jarring. For every area that was absolutely gorgeous there was a part of the script that made me extremely grateful for having editors on all my writing. Over and over, I found these flaws didn’t stop me from enjoying the core that I could see underneath. At least, until the game (as far as I can tell) bugged so badly that I literally couldn’t continue. Read more
- January Update - Launch is Nearly Here! - 18 January 2022
Hi everyone! Happy New Year! In under a month, you’ll be jumping into the full release of The Waylanders and we can’t wait to see how you like the continuation of the story. Stepping forward a thousand years has absolutely changed the land and the people who inhabit it. Villages have become forts and castles, stone roads have replaced dirt trails, and creatures of magic have gone into hiding. Your companions will change too. Rediscover mortals reborn and seek out immortal friends who have traveled the thousand year road the hard way. With advances in crafting, the medieval period holds a whole host of new weapons, armor, and other items to discover and outfit your party with. There’s a lot coming for you to discover! Now, on to a few things ahead of launch. All That Glitters is Morian Gold At full release, The Waylanders will increase in price from $34.99 USD to $39.99 USD. This increas…
- November Update - 0.35b - 24 November 2021
As you already know, The Waylanders final release has been set for February 2, 2022. To tide you over, we hope you enjoy today’s 0.35b update which adds flavor to the current scenarios and provides a whole batch of new bug fixes. Same great scenarios with richer details! We’ve flavored many environments with multiple new assets. We believe, this change improves immersion while making each location more unique and richer in detail. We’ve added better lighting, fire, Celtic runes, tree branches between stones, and more to many locations. Each new asset adds personality to The Waylanders world. With this update, we’ve overhauled Ireland, Fomorian Caves, Mount Medhu, Cave of Destiny, and Cave of Eternity. Here are some examples of what you’ll see in today’s update: Ireland When you arrive in Ireland, you find this land is full of chaos. In the new version, you can feel the smell of fire, bl…
- New release date: February 2, 2022 - 8 November 2021
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 remai…
