WESTLANDERS REVEALS NEW GAMEPLAY TRAILER & KICKSTARTER DETAILS, COMING SOON

With over 100,000 wishlists already secured, the ambitious open-world survival title is set for PC Early Access in 2026, with console versions to follow in 2027

PARIS — March 17, 2026 — The Breach Studios and Radical Theory are proud to share new details regarding the development of Westlanders. Since its reveal, this ambitious open-world survival, crafting, and management game has captured the imagination of the gaming community, surpassing 100,000 wishlists.

Today, the development team is thrilled to announce that Westlanders will soon launch its official Kickstarter campaign. To celebrate this milestone and give players a glimpse of the grit and glory awaiting them in the frontier, the studio has released a brand-new Kickstarter Trailer.

Make the Westlands Your Home

Westlanders offers a deep, multi-layered experience where players evolve from desperate survivors into leaders of a thriving economic network.

Tame the wild using a covered wagon that serves as your fully customizable mobile base. Team up with up to four players to navigate uncharted regions, hunt for resources, and manage specialized skills to survive brutal environmental conditions and severe weather.

Stake your claim by establishing fortified towns and outposts. Gather essential resources – such as wood, iron, and gold – to craft advanced gear. But stay vigilant: your growing wealth will inevitably attract bandits, requiring you to build robust defenses to protect your progress.

You don’t have to face the frontier alone. Find and recruit diverse NPCs to manage essential labor, including mining, logging, and animal husbandry. Coordinate with your friends to optimize economic networks between settlements, creating a secure and prosperous society. Push the boundaries of the untamed lands by upgrading your wagon and weaponry through a detailed, branching skill tree.

The Journey Ahead

Westlanders will debut in Early Access on PC featuring the Lake Region, a massive environment ready for exploration. This initial release will introduce core survival mechanics, an array of skills to master, and numerous recipes to unlock as you build your first towns from the ground up.

The upcoming Kickstarter campaign will allow the community to directly support the studio, helping to deliver an even richer, more polished experience from the very first day of Early Access. Following the campaign, the studio will progressively unveil the official Development Roadmap via Kickstarter, Steam, the Epic Games Store, the official Discord server, and social media channels, with a console release expected in 2027.
