Windrose: Roadmap – What can you expect?

The Pirate Adventure Windrose launched in Early Access on April 24, 2026. Players are wondering what new features they can expect in the future. But is there a roadmap for that?

What’s coming in the future? Currently, there is no official roadmap for Windrose. However, there are some rough guidelines for Early Access that the developers aim to achieve (see Steam):

  • Duration: approximately 1.5 to 2.5 years
  • Version 1.0 should have 50% more content at full release than the current version
    • More biomes, bosses, enemies, ships, and weapons, for example
  • Completed story should span 50 – 70 hours of gameplay
  • Various gameplay systems are to be tested and possibly added
  • Official mod support will be added at some point
  • There may be PvP

Whether there will be a console version is currently unclear. The developers want to focus mainly on a polished PC version for Early Access.
