After months of development, testing, and amazing community feedback from you, we’re proud to announce that HexWind will officially release here on SteamVR on June 12.
This is it—the full launch of our magic-fueled, time-bending VR roguelite.
You’ll finally be able to experience the complete campaign, new enemies, massive bosses, new powers, and the most polished and definitive version of HexWind!
🎯 At launch, you can expect:
Intense combat with powerful, satisfying magic spells
New upgrades, potions, and meta progression systems
Unbelievably epic boss battles
An amazing new enemy gallery
An original heart-pounding soundtrack
Lots of polish, performance improvements, and surprises
Be ready when it hits:
👉 If you haven't yet, wishlist HexWind to be notified the moment we go live.
👉 Join our Discord to talk strategy, share builds, and hang with the dev team.
One Last Chance for Early Access and all its Benefits (Including getting immortalized in our Hall of Heroes)!
Still haven’t picked up HexWind? This is still the best time.
Until launch, you can still grab the game in Early Access—and lock in all future content updates. Once we launch, these grandfathered-in future updates will be spirited away.
Most importantly, you’ll be etched in the memory of all future HexWinders by appearing permanently in our Hall of Heroes.
