Guild Saga: Vanished Worlds is coming to PS5 in May 2027

Guild Saga: Vanished Worlds, a story-driven tactical RPG, is coming to PS5 in May 2027. Sony announced the window on 13 November 2026 (US time) alongside a new trailer, and says the exact release date will be shared closer to launch.

You can add the game to your wishlist on the PlayStation Store now.

The setup

Your first mission for the Heroes Guild goes sideways when a mysterious maelstrom strands you on an unfamiliar island. Beyond the shore are dangerous creatures, suspicious alchemists and a busy town full of people to meet and side quests to find.

Building your hero and party

You create your hero’s appearance and pick a background, talents and skills. There’s no rigid class system: skills from different disciplines can be mixed freely, and hundreds of items shape both your build and your look.

Companions each have their own history and personal quests, and their gear, abilities and attributes can be fully customised. Friendships and romance can develop through dialogue and shared experiences.

Combat

Fights are turn-based, with approximately 200 skills across ten disciplines. Surfaces and weather matter, and they can change how skills behave.

Sony’s example: a Geomancer summons a mandrake, a Hydromancer makes it rain to help it grow, and an Aeromancer electrifies the puddles to paralyse anyone standing in them.

Looting, mining and gathering herbs give you materials to craft weapons, equipment, arrows, potions and food.

Exploring the archipelago

The main quest gives direction, but the islands invite wandering. Side quests include a murder mystery, bounty hunts for feared monsters, a deadly dispute between farm animals and an alchemical conspiracy. Hidden treasures, puzzles, crafting resources, ancient books and forgotten notes reward curious players.
