But it won’t take long before you realize this is a very different kind of world, one that pushes the We Were Here experience into new territory.We Were Here Tomorrow is coming to Xbox Series X|S, giving players a new way to experience the series’ signature cooperative gameplay.While earlier games in the series were deeply rooted in icy landscapes and medieval castles, We Were Here Tomorrow invites you somewhere completely new. It’s still the same spirit of cooperative discovery, but with fresh surroundings filled with new mysteries and secrets to uncover.A Cozy Sci-Fi World to ExploreThis time, your adventure unfolds in a retro-futuristic setting inspired by cassette futurism and the bold style of the ’80s. Expect chunky technology, shoulder pads, and environments that feel both nostalgic and whimsical.We like to think of it as cozy sci-fi: a world that feels inviting and playful, but with just enough mystery to make you wonder what’s around the next corner. As you explore, you’ll uncover spaces that are as much about atmosphere as they are about puzzles, giving you time to take it all in together.A New Story, Connected to the PastEven though the setting is new, We Were Here Tomorrow continues after the previous game. If you’ve played earlier entries, you’ll notice subtle connections and hidden Easter Eggs that link everything together. And, if you are still wondering about what happened to the Jester after We Were Here Forever, rest assured, your questions will be answered!And if you’re new to the series, you can jump right in! The story stands on its own while still rewarding returning players with extra layers to discover.Asymmetrical Communication Is Still KeyAt its heart, We Were Here has always been about how you communicate, and We Were Here Tomorrow builds on that in new ways.You’ll share information through an upgraded walkie-talkie, and proximity chat lets you talk more naturally while you and your partner experience situations from wildly different perspectives. Many puzzles revolve around how well you can describe what you see, listen carefully, and uncover the solution together.For the first time in the series, each player also gets distinct tools and abilities, meaning success depends on understanding how your roles fit together. Some moments focus on deep problem-solving and mind-bending puzzles, while other challenges emphasize mastery of your abilities and traversal to keep the pacing fresh.In We Were Here Tomorrow, we’re also trying something new with how we present lore, and a lot may depend on whether (and how) players communicate about what they discover along the way.Bigger Spaces, More to DiscoverRather than moving from one puzzle room to the next, Tomorrow unfolds across larger areas with their own thematic identity and visual style, reminiscent of dungeons in Zelda games. As you solve challenges, you’ll see the environment change around you, giving you a real sense of progress and shared accomplishment.Movement and traversal have also been refined, making it easier and more satisfying to explore, whether you’re searching for clues or simply taking in the world together.The Moments You’ll RememberWhat truly defines We Were Here isn’t just the puzzles; it’s the moments you experience together. The miscommunications that turn into laughter, the sudden breakthroughs, the small victories that feel huge because you achieved them as a team.Tomorrow leans into those moments even more, sometimes putting you in situations where understanding each other isn’t as simple as it seems. Seeing things from your partner’s perspective, literally and figuratively, can make all the difference.An Adventure Meant to Be SharedWhether you’re returning with a longtime co-op partner or jumping in with someone new, our goal is simple: we want you to feel the thrill of discovering something together.You’ll recognize the cooperative experience that defines the series, but you’ll also find new surprises, new mechanics, and new stories that make this journey feel fresh.For us, We Were Here Tomorrow is both a step forward and a celebration of what players love most about the series. We can’t wait for you to step into this new world side by side and to see the stories you create together.☆☆☆☆☆★★★★★Get it now.post-template-default .xwsrc-block-content-block .wp-block-column.flex-basis-50.push--25.column--content {flex: 100%;margin-left: 0;}Related Stories for “Step Into the Retro-Futuristic World of We Were Here Tomorrow”Category: Next Week on XboxNext Week on Xbox: New Games for March 2 to 6Category: ID@XboxGhetto Zombies Graffiti Squad: a Mash-up of Urban Co-op Chaos, Music and StyleCategory: ID@XboxHoomanz!
