Introducing Windblown
Motion Twin, the creative minds behind the hit game Dead Cells, have announced the early access release for their next vibrant roguelite, Windblown. Set to arrive on October 24, 2023, Windblown promises a cheerful twist compared to the grim darkness of its predecessor. With a focus on multiplayer experiences, this title aims to bring a sense of joy and camaraderie to its players.
Gameplay Elements and Aesthetic
Windblown will retain many elements that fans loved in Dead Cells. Fast-paced hack-and-slash combat and thrilling platforming challenges are set to return. However, players can expect a visual transition from pixel art to a more playful cartoon style, reminiscent of games like Paladins. The new isometric perspective offers fresh gameplay dynamics, allowing for improved navigation and a different tactical approach to battles.
Progression and Demo Details
For those eager to leap into this new world, a playable demo will launch during Steam’s Next Fest on October 14, allowing players to get a taste of Windblown’s unique features. Even better, any progress made in the demo will carry over to the full game launch—a thoughtful inclusion that rewards early players. While Motion Twin has yet to announce additional details about the game’s complete release, the anticipation surrounding Windblown is palpable.
