Release and platforms

When does Wildaria come out? Early Access on 8 October 2026, on Windows and macOS. Linux is not listed.

How much does it cost? Not published as of 2 October 2026 — there is no price block on the store page and no pre-order. Anyone quoting a price right now is guessing.

Is there a demo? The game has been playable publicly for years before Early Access — the developer ran pre-alpha builds outside Steam and a closed alpha on Steam in July 2026. What ships on 8 October is the Early Access build itself.

Is it a full release? No. It is Early Access, and the store page lists it as such. The developer's own history is of shipping a playable game and continuing to patch it in public.

Multiplayer

Can I play with a friend? Not at launch. The developer has confirmed multiplayer is on the roadmap, delayed along with the Early Access delay, with multiplayer playtesting targeted for 2027. Split-screen co-op has been warmly received but not confirmed as the shipping mode. Full detail, with the developer's own words, on the multiplayer page.

Language

What languages does it support? English only at launch, including full English audio. The developer has said localisation is planned for a later update and named French as one of the languages in scope. Nothing has been confirmed for other languages yet.

Gameplay

How do you get pets? With a lasso mini-game. You aim, throw, and play out the taming interaction; the developer has not published catch rates. See pet taming.

Can you ride them? Yes — riding is part of the kit and is how you cover ground in an endless world.

Is there a story? Yes: a main quest framed around the struggle between civilization and nature, with choices that the developer says lead to different boss fights and allegiances and eventually affect the World of Wildaria.

How many bosses? Three Animal Gods are referenced in the current quest chain ("Slay All 3 Animal Gods", added August 2026 and flagged work in progress). Treat that as the current build's count, not a final total — see Animal Gods.

How big is the map? There is no map size. The world generates endlessly; there is no completion state for geography.

Is there a class system? Yes, but it is the least-developed part. Character creation offers five species plus face, hair and body customisation, then class specialisation through a skill tree that alpha players asked the developer to expand. A respec system was in progress in August 2026.

Does it support controllers? Yes, full controller support including DualShock and DualSense, with rebinding added in August 2026.

Practical

What are the system requirements? Windows 7 SP1+ / 10 / 11, x86 or x64 with SSE2, DX10/11/12 capable graphics. See settings and performance for the full list and why the published minimums should be read as "will boot".

Is there an official wiki? Not as of 2 October 2026. The game has a store page, a developer site and community channels; this site is independent and unaffiliated.

Where do I report a bug? The developer's own site has feedback and bug sections, and the Steam discussion forums are active — the alpha feedback threads there are where several of the fixes in the patch notes came from. For problems with this site, use the contact page.
