Hello Wayfinders! We’re thrilled to partner with PlayStation to bring Wayfinder into Early Access exclusively on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Season 1 of Early Access begins in May 2023, and our Founders Pack program accompanies it. Want to dive into the world of Evenor before that? Our next beta test begins February 28, 2023 for PS5 players with our last closed test in March for PS4 and PS5, so make sure you’re registered on the official Wayfinder website for a chance to participate.
In case you missed our reveal at The Game Awards, let’s keep us updated! Wayfinder is a character-based online action RPG set in a shared online world we call Evenor. Evenor has been shattered by a destructive and chaotic force called The Gloom and you must harness the power of a Wayfinder to control Chaos. You’ll join forces with friends to boost your powers and embark on endless adventures as you discover Evenor, lost areas, and resources to craft new items, weapons, and Wayfinders.

Your game begins with choosing a Wayfinder. After finding one that matches your playstyle, you’re ready to embark on your journey against the Gloom, a mysterious force that has wreaked havoc and corruption on the world.

Adventures begin in Skylight, the game’s social space and Evenor’s last beacon of hope. Here you’ll be able to recruit other players, visit your apartment, and craft new gear and Wayfinders that you’ve saved from the Gloom to play for the journey ahead.
As you leave Skylight, you’ll quickly come across public events and world bosses waiting to be taken down. The Highlands is a large area of open space filled with other Wayfinders. You’ll make new friends while completing quests, fighting world bosses, and collecting resources.

In the Highlands, you’ll discover entrances to the Lost Zones, dungeon-like areas to explore with up to three Wayfinders. These Lost Zones feature random layouts, enemies, monsters, events, and loot! No two Lost Zone Expeditions are alike. You’ll customize your gaming experience with mutators to alter the adventures, challenges, and rewards you find.

We will be releasing content throughout the seasons and Early Access will start in May, consisting of two separate seasons. Each season will last around three months and will include various new features such as characters, weapons, and even locations.
More Wayfinders and weapons will be available each season. You’ll also have the opportunity to explore new events that span across the Highlands and other open-world environments, overcome new challenges in Lost Zone Expeditions, face dangerous new enemies in all corners of The Gloom and immerse yourself in a rich story between the characters. as well as the players.
