Wander
Upcoming exploration game Wander has received a release date and trailer. Developer Wander MMO announced today that the game will arrive to both PlayStation 4 and Steam on June 4.
The announcement trailer showcases the true Wander experience and focuses on interaction, both with other players and the world itself. Check out trailer below to see the exploration in action.
Wander allows players to take on various forms and explore a lush and expansive environment. Players shift between the forms like a griffin, sea creature, and walking tree to explore and uncover all the mysteries the island has to offer.
Keeping with the theme of fluid exploration, Wander MMO has developed a "non-menu" menu system which allows players to swap between inventory, map, and other options without breaking the immersion of the experience.
Wander will be available for download on PC via Steam and PS4 via PSN on June 4 for $25.

Our Take
It's always refreshing when a developer
approaches gameplay from a non-violent, exploratory angle. I'm excited to see
how the different forms will affect player experience.

We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
