For the next 48 hours, players can download the exciting 2024 fantasy RPG Wayfinder on Steam, a three-player co-op action game that features "intense combat, deep customization, a huge world to explore and tons of loot to collect." You have until January 29 at 1:00PM EST to play the game entirely for free, and it's well worth checking out.
Wayfinder Is Free On Steam Now
Wayfinder is officially free on Steam for the next 48 hours and fans of dungeon-crawler ARPGs will definitely want to give this a shot while they still can. It's a three-player cooperative PvE game packed full of content and featuring extensive open-world exploration, boss raids, and a gameplay loop "where you directly shape and customize the endless adventures you go on with friends."
The game takes place on the fictional world of Evenor after it has been fractured by Chaos, and players "harness the power of a Wayfinder" to restore balance to the world. You'll be able to customize your characters with unique "mutators," custom modifiers that give you varying abilities and advantages as you explore, raid, and collect valuable loot.
It's An Underrated Fantasy RPG
Wayfinder is a highly underrated fantasy action game that deserves your attention if you're a fan of MMORPGs but don't want any over-complicated progression systems or a million things going on your screen at the same time. While the game has somewhat mixed reviews, players like Matt call it a "hidden gem for sure," summarizing gameplay as follows:
The combat in Wayfinder is satisfying and intuitive, and you're able to switch through your characters whenever you want, so there's no need to start over from scratch if you want to try out a new character. The interface is straightforward and it's always clear what you're looking for.
Further, fans like RPFTW weren't expecting the game to be so addictive, saying they kept going back because "it has so much content, so much customization and is so fun to play that I couldn't help it."
If you're looking for something new to try on Steam and don't want to break the bank, you have a limited time to check out Wayfinder completely for free. Further, Wayfinder is featured as one of Steam's mid-week deals, which means it's currently listed at a 70% discount until February 2. Now is the perfect time to try the game out for free and pick it up for extremely cheap if you end up loving it.
