Guild Saga: Vanished Worlds is heading to PS5 in May 2027, developer Ocelot Technologies announced on November 13, 2026. Ocelot says it will share the exact release date closer to launch. Its combat pitch includes rain, growing mandrakes, and some extremely unsafe puddles. Source
Gematsu reports that the PS5 launch will arrive alongside the full PC release via Steam. According to the outlet, the game first entered PC Early Access on October 10, 2024, so May marks its planned graduation rather than its first appearance on PC. Source
Gardening, followed by electrical hazards
In the PlayStation.Blog announcement, lead developer Yasser Saleem describes turn-based combat with approximately 200 skills across ten disciplines. Progression lets players freely combine skills from different disciplines rather than stick to a rigid class system. Source
Saleem’s example starts with a character using Geomancer skills to summon a mandrake. A companion with Hydromancer skills can make it rain, watering the creature and helping it grow into a stronger ally. Then a party member with Aeromancer skills can electrify the puddles with lightning, paralyzing anyone standing in them. Watch where the rest of the party is standing. Source
Your companions have problems, too
The story begins with your first mission for the Heroes Guild, which goes sideways when a mysterious maelstrom strands you on an unfamiliar island. The adventure takes place across the Respite Archipelago, with dangerous creatures, suspicious alchemists, and townspeople offering further distractions from whatever the original assignment was supposed to be.

According to Saleem, companions have their own histories and personal quests, while their equipment, abilities, and attributes are fully customizable. Dialogue and shared experiences can also lead to friendships and romance. Party-building extends beyond deciding who gets lightning privileges. Source
Exploration supplies materials for crafting weapons, equipment, arrows, potions, and food. The developer’s side-quest examples range from murder investigations and monster bounties to settling a deadly dispute between farm animals. So much for a quiet life in the countryside. Source
