Wyldheart Announced as Co-Op Tabletop-Style RPG From Former DICE Creators

The debut project pitches tabletop freedom in a drop-in online RPG built for short sessions.

Overview

  • Wayfinder Studios revealed Wyldheart during PAX East as a new co-op fantasy RPG that channels tabletop role-playing.
  • The studio is crowdfunding the game on Kickstarter to support development of its first release.
  • Players can explore hex-based campaign maps with hundreds of areas in solo play or in parties of up to four.
  • Character creation is classless with multiple races and backgrounds, and each hosted campaign can hold 20 character slots for friends to join over time.
  • A rumor system surfaces leads from overheard conversations, while survival play adds crafting, cooking, resting, and frequent combat, with an Early Access launch planned on PC before later console versions.
