“We could be several times bigger in content and scale than the demo,” the team shared on Discord, emphasizing their commitment to refining the game and incorporating player feedback before locking in a release date. “When we feel confident enough, we will announce the release date. We are not holding this information to tease your anticipation. We are holding it because we want to lock this in firmly and ship the game on time and in the best condition possible.”

The demo’s success—coupled with its infectious sea shanties—has players eagerly awaiting the full release. As the team continues to “cook” the game, fans can take solace in knowing that patience will be rewarded with a polished, expansive pirate adventure.

Until then, the wait continues, but one thing is certain: Windrose is charting a course toward becoming one of the most anticipated titles in the survival-crafting genre.
