PAX East was the first player-focused event we attended and we were ecstatic to have been able to meet so many of you, Wayfinders! The team has been waiting for a chance to talk more about our upcoming game and our panel hosted by the guide expert himself, MTashed, allowed us to do just that. If you missed it live, you can watch it here:
Meet the Team
Our speakers Joe Madueria CEO of Airship Syndicate, Ryan Stefanelli Studio President, and AJ LaSaracina Marketing & Engagement Director, took us through some of the history of Airship, the time and effort that has been put into creating player-first experiences, and how all of this has helped shape our upcoming title, Wayfinder.
Inspiration Behind Wayfinder
Wayfinder is a world filled with rich lore, a roster with personality-filled characters, and epic and changing scenery. Click here to jump to the particular panel segment.
Voice Actors
We’d like to introduce some of the talented voices of Wayfinder. They bring the emotion and conviction of these characters to life. As you travel through the world of Wayfinder we hope you’ll learn to find courage and strength in voices that will be by your side along the way.
Stories of the Characters
The stories behind the Wayfinders are just as important as their fight against the gloom. It’s what gives these protectors a common cause as they stand for the people of Evenor. This world will have stories to tell both in-game and out, so there will be plenty of routes to become the experts needed to save Evenor and fight back the Gloom. In fact, we had a new story to tell at the panel! Click here to jump to the particular panel segment.
New Wayfinder Revealed - Venomess
Nothing like a mere wall will stop The Venomess from reaching her mark and completing her mission. We hope our teaser gives you some ideas on what you have to look forward to when this Wayfinder emerges from the Gloom! Looking to the future of the game, there will be main updates every three months, called Seasons. These Seasons will bring new content with them like new Wayfinders, weapons, and events for players to dominate on the path to saving this broken world.
Building a Game Alongside a Community
We couldn’t have made it to this point without your amazing support, or the players that have helped shape the game so far in the tests that have taken place. From how loot works at a foundational level to making combat changes like parrying when YOU want, we are listening to feedback and will continue to do so as Wayfinder opens up to everyone (looking at you air dash).
Seasons + Our Battle Pass

THANK YOU, Wayfinder!
Both the Airship Syndicate and Digital Extremes teams are working to bring you the best possible experience as a Wayfinder. The response that has been seen so far has been amazing and lets us know we are heading in the right direction. The teams are dedicated to building this world with you, for you. We thank you for your continued support and look forward to seeing you at the next event to #ControltheChaos!
