About the game

Wake up, Leaper! This is Windblown: the lightning-fast, 1-3 player co-op action roguelite from Motion Twin, the creators of Dead Cells.

Dash across the ruins of a broken world with impossible speed in a last stand against the apocalypse. Solo or with friends, reawaken the powers of those who fell before you, unleash devastating weapons, perfect your loadout, and reclaim what was taken.

Your godlike speed is key to surviving the all-consuming Vortex threatening your world; stay aggressive and overwhelm the battlefield - before it overwhelms you.

Chain dashes, strikes, abilities and devastating power moves together in hyper-fast combat built around flow. Tear through ever-changing islands filled with challenges, enemies, and bosses designed to push your limits.

It’s dangerous to go alone, and you’ll need every weapon, trinket and passive upgrade you can get. Dual wield to combine unique weapon movesets, unleash powerful Alterattacks, and customize your build with over 170+ unlockables.

The playstyle is yours to create: Mix fast melee weapons with heavy hitters (including the fan-favourite Crocojaw, known for its brutal bite!), ranged tools, status effects, mobility skills and more to become the unstoppable force on the battlefield.

Whether you prefer playing solo or in co-op chaos, you’ll find a complete experience in Windblown. Our game caters to all playstyles, with no gating!

Coordinate builds, hunt for upgrade mats and defeat formidable foes together or single - then go chill at the hub whenever you need a break from the mayhem!

Death is part of the process - just dust yourself off and try again! Every failed run lets you bring back valuable resources to unlock new weapons, powers and upgrades at the Ark, expanding future builds and playstyles. Learn enemy patterns, try a new loadout, and come back stronger every time.

No drawback to experimenting, so go forward, Leaper!

Key features:

Dash and dive: Lightning-fast combat focused on momentum, aggression and chaining abilities.

Perfect your playstyle: With 25+ weapons, 20 trinkets, 105 passive upgrades, 20 hexes, 3 magifish and the different Alterattack combinations, you won’t fall short of options to create your perfect playstyle!

Stronger through failure: The metaprogression ensures you come back stronger every time, even after defeat!

Scavenge and strengthen: Recover valuable materials from the battlefield to upgrade your arsenal.

A world in fragments: Explore 6 distinct biomes filled with their distinct challenges, enemies and memorable bosses - with more coming in 1.0!

Home sweet Ark: Take a breather between runs and meet a cast of lovable weirdos who’ll help you on your journey.

Solo or co-op: Take on the Vortex alone or with up to 2 friends in fast-paced PVE co-op.

Dressed to kill: Windblown fashion is a thing! Why not accessorise your weapons with a colourful skin?
