The Waylanders Update #51 - Coming to GOG

Gato Studio launched their Dragon Age-inspired time-travel RPG The Waylanders into Steam Early Access back in June. And according to the game’s latest Kickstarter update, it will be coming to GOG’s "Games in Development" program on July 27, 2020. Here’s the GOG launch trailer:

And some additional information:

The Waylanders will be available on GOG’s Games in Development program on July, 27th.

Our plans for The Waylanders on GOGwill be the same as Steam Early Access, the game will be updated with the same frequency, with the same content. So, GOG fans can enjoy the game on their favorite platform with the same improvements coming to Steam.

The roadmap will be the same: there will be updates every other week, alternating between new content and game improvements.

We’ll reveal more details of the roadmap later this Summer. Stay tuned!

All backers will be able to play on GOG July 27th

When we say ‘all backers’, it means everyone. Including those who have only pledged for the final version of the game. As of July, 27th, you will be able to enjoy The Waylanders. You will receive your keys through Backerkit, as always. You will only have to activate it on the corresponding platform.

All backers will get both versions: GOG and Steam

In addition to giving access to all backers, we also have another surprise: all of you will get both GOG and Steam versions of the game!

This means you can enjoy the game on either of the two platforms without any additional cost. This is a totally free gift from our team as a way to say thanks for supporting us since the beginning. We hope you enjoy it!

Those who have pledged for Alpha / Beta will get access to developer version

It would be very unfair to give early access to all without making an additional gesture to backers who have contributed with a significant amount. For all of you who have purchased the Alpha or Beta version, we have enabled a "developer version" on Steam. In this version, you can enjoy the latest features before anyone else: new scenarios, missions, companions quests, and more

The "developer version" will be experimental and unstable in some cases, but you will have access to the latest content several days before the rest of the world!

If you are a backer of $50 or more, or if you pledged for the alpha add-on, you will receive a code in Backerkit to access the "developer version" and instructions to activate it on Steam.
