Windbound Gameplay Walkthrough Showcases Sailing, Hunting & Crafting

Publisher Deep Silver has released a 21-minute gameplay walkthrough of upcoming survival-RPG Windbound, and it looks lovely.

Windbound sees you playing as Kara, discovering lost and hidden artefacts as she attempts to find her way home from the forbidden islands. The video is narrated by Mitch Clifford, co-founder of Australian developer 5Lives Studios, and he walks us through the process of exploring the stunning world of Windbound. We see Kara gathering resources and crafting items such as new sails or parts for the boat, hunting wild animals on the islands, and sailing across the sea using the wind.

The game has a strong Zelda vibe, and looks like a cross between Wind Waker and Breath of the Wild, which is enough to have me very interested. You can check out the first look gameplay video down below.

Windbound is due to brave the storm on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC on 28th August 2020.

  • Is it just me or does this look almost exactly like breath of the wild!?
  • @1 It definitely has a similar art style and a lot of the systems seem to pull from BotW. I'm into it
  • Games has a nice art style, but when you include "survival" or "rogue/rogue-like", 100% pass.
