After almost 2 years of Early Access, The Wandering Village has a 1.0 launch date.
Get ready to jump back into the game on July 17th 2025, coming to Steam, Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch.

We’ve been hard at work and have released many major updates for the game since its Early Access release. In-between we have also pushed dozens of smaller bug fixing and balancing patches. So make sure to pay Onbu another visit 😀

While reaching 1.0 is a huge milestone for the game, it does not mark the end of Onbu’s journey. There are still quite a few things we would love to add to the game. Check out our updated roadmap. Please note that we have decided to fully focus on the 1.0 release first and move the Onbu Update to post 1.0.

Story Mode Update:
We just released the Story Mode, our biggest update yet, on the main branch.
A big thank you to everybody who helped to test the game!
Join Onbu on an epic journey as you learn more about the world, its inhabitants, and the source of the infestation. Meet a cast of unique characters, help them out in a series of side quests, and prepare for an intense final showdown. Plus, there are two new Onbu skins in the game, one of which is unlocked by completing the Story Mode.

We hope you enjoy the new update!
You can find the full patch notes here.
To celebrate the occasion, the game is currently 30% off on Steam.
