Windblown blowing into Early Access

Windblown, the upcoming fast-paced rogue-lite by the creators of Dead Cells, launches in Early Access on Steam Oct. 24, 2024. Players will soon dash with speed through vast, ever-changing islands in the sky as they use a variety of powerful weapons and gear to destroy the Sentinels – deadly minions of the Vortex that threatens their home. Playable in both single player and with up to three players in co-operative online multiplayer, fans won’t have to wait long to dive into this original world where build synergy and fast reflexes are key to success.

Featuring unique biomes teeming with secrets and challenging adversaries, players will build their Leaper using dozens of different Weapons, Trinkets, Gifts and Fish to unleash their full potential and destroy the Sentinels... or die trying. Every death is a new beginning, as the Leaper's mission is not over, learning from their mistakes, discovering new Memories to unlock even more build options in their arsenal and trying just one more run.

Players won’t have to wait until Oct. 24 to dive into Windblown though, as a new single player demo will be available during the upcoming Steam Next Fest, running Oct. 14 through Oct. 21. Players can take their first dashes through the opening stages of the game and try a sample of what the Early Access launch will offer, with their progression carrying over into the game on Oct. 24. Additionally, players who try out the demo will unlock an exclusive Guinea Pig skin for their character in the Early Access release, befitting their role as an early tester of the game’s countless challenges ahead.
