You’ve tumbled from the sky and crash-landed into Wildekin, an upcoming 3D pixel art adventure unveiled during a World Premiere in the Xbox @ gamescom 2025 broadcast today.
Coming to Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One the near future, our debut trailer is jam-packed with creative and chaotic co-op mayhem, here are five details you might have missed.
- Play as a Wildekin With the Character Creator
Create your own weird little guy with Wildekin’s character creator. You can be a hefty rhinoceros, barreling into battle or a sturdy pink tortoise directing all the construction in town or why not become every Wildekin’s best friend as a cute pooch? Every player can fully customize their Wildekin with a variety of head, ear, tails and color combos to choose from. The only limitation is your own imagination when becoming one of the many unique Wildekin falling from the sky.
- Head Out to Sea on a Perilous Search For Others Like You
There’s a big, bold world out there, brimming with adventures. Speak to Captain C.L., a weathered captain of the seas, and chart a course to new islands. Each island hosts dangerous enemies, hazardous puzzles, mighty bosses to defeat, and, of course, loot! Taking to the seas can be a perilous undertaking, and though your gear may be inadequate, arming yourself with a can-do attitude and total disregard for your own safety will (maybe). You’ll be rewarded with precious treasures, friendly Wildekin to take home and sea charts to progressively more dangerous shores.
- Build and Decorate A New Home For the Wildekin
After all that adventuring, you’ll be ready to kick your hooves up and relax in your little corner of the world… once you’ve built a house… and crafted some furniture. Not only are you this town’s very own knight in wooden armor; you’re the town planner too! Construct, decorate and redecorate again. Plonk down your neighbor’s home. Don’t like where you’ve put it? Pick it up again and move it to the other side of town, hopefully they’re not inside! Wish someone else would pull their weight in this town? Assign resident Wildekin with jobs at the local shops (which you also built, by the way) and they’ll help you craft new furniture at the workshop, or new gizmos and gadgets to aid you on your adventures.
- Become Friends With Your Rescued Wildekin Neighbours
This town might be full of weirdos, but they’re your weirdos! Befriend your neighbors by intruding on their morning stroll for some oversharing, or bribe your way into the locals’ hearts with gifts and loot. Hey, why not head over to their house, uninvited, and let yourself in to judge how they’ve decorated the place? Every Wildekin has their very own unique personality (some stranger than others) for you to discover and wonder why you ever let these little fluffballs into your town. The Wildekin in your town contribute, in their own way, to build a thriving community. They’ll organize seasonal festivals, friendly competitions and even gift you items to help you on your adventures… if you get to know them well enough.
- Build and Explore together With up to 4 Player Co-op Online Multiplayer
But what’s all this fun and adventuring without your IRL friends? Gather three of your pals and go venture into the chaotic, perilous adventures of your dreams. Inhabit the same world, you can all share a home together, or fill up the town with your own houses and decorate with your own, obnoxious flair. Quest, world and crafting progress is shared. If one brave soul goes to face a mighty boss, your friends will be right behind you. If one of you unlocks a neat crafting recipe, your friends can use it too. Relationships with the residents of the town though? Those are personal.
Wildekin will be arriving on Xbox consoles with a good mix of wholesome, creative and chaotic adventures to be had with your NPC neighbors, or bring some friends along for co-op town-building and island-hopping.
