Deep Silver has announced the upcoming Windbound, an archipelago adventure game that features a brave female warrior as she uncovers secrets on forbidden islands. It’s a journey that will likely entice fans of Zelda and other exploration games filled with exotic creatures, frequent dangers, and a sense of the unknown.
The trailer showcases the survival skills and sailing prowess necessary to thrive in this wild world, and it looks like there is a lot that players can scavenge to live off the land and upgrade their equipment. Deep Silver promises that players can craft a custom seacraft to explore the islands.
It’s our first glimpse of the world right now, but Windbound looks immersive. It will hopefully be an engaging experience for gamers that enjoy the kind of open-world adventure that the genre promises.
The game is scheduled to release on August 28th for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
