Hello Wordsmiths,
The date has been officially set. Beyond Words will officially launch on 9th April 2026.
Created by Steve Ellis and Dr David Doak, two of the minds behind GoldenEye 007 and TimeSplitters, Beyond Words blends roguelike strategy with clever word crafting where every letter can change the course of a run.
Build powerful word combos, unlock game-changing upgrades and adapt to evolving boards where each decision matters. With over 300 modifiers and abilities, no two runs play the same as you discover new ways to stack multipliers, trigger clever synergies and push your score higher than ever.
Boss challenges will twist the rules in unexpected ways, forcing you to rethink your strategy and find creative solutions to stay ahead.
If you haven’t played it yet, the Beyond Words demo is available now on Steam. It offers a healthy slice of the full experience and a chance to start mastering the systems before launch. We would love to see your best runs, biggest combos and most ridiculous high-scoring words.
If you enjoy the demo, please consider wishlisting the game. It genuinely helps us a great deal as we head towards launch.
Thank you for all the feedback and support so far. It has helped shape the game and we cannot wait for you to experience the full release.
See you on the board.
