Wildgate will be the debut game of Moonshot Games, a studio under the Dreamhaven publishing label – founded by former Blizzard Entertainment co-founder, CEO, and president Mike Morhaime. Wildgate is scheduled for release on PC and consoles in 2025. Get ready to take your adventuring into an interstellar journey through a realm of space known as the Reach! Players will engage in massive starfighter dogfights! They will travel through cosmic storms, all while trying to uncover a mysterious MacGuffin called the Artifact.
The role-playing game is in-development from the creative minds of Dreamhaven, helmed by Blizzard Entertainment’s former president Mike Morhaime. Wildgate has a captivating gameplay loop centered around exploration and discovery. Co-op piracy mechanics invite comparison to the much-beloved Sea of Thieves. With every battle in Wildgate a fresh adventure, players will need to rethink their strategies and work together like never before.
Wildgate’s universe is filled with all sorts of characters, but the main protagonists are a group of adventurers called Prospectors. Each Prospector comes with their own unique set of tools and skills, allowing for a multitude of strategic plays to be made by players. The game encourages players to disrupt existing alien settlements, scrounging for valuable loot. This exciting conundrum adds an exciting layer of risk/reward to the Hoards, making them dangerous and desirable.
"Wildgate rewards cooperation and tactical mastery in a way that realizes Dreamhaven’s goal to bring players together and help them create lasting memories." – Mike Morhaime
Players can look forward to navigating the Reach through dangerous cosmic storms, adding to the game’s adventurous atmosphere. The combat isn’t just a fight against enemies, there’s a substantial climatic aspect that enhances each and every operation that raises the stakes and makes combat even dreamy. The developers have made sure that no two matches are the same, which provides a new experience with every playthrough.
