We Were Here Tomorrow launches on October 20, 2026 with cross-play across Steam, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S from day one. You will need a partner: this is a two-player, co-op-only game, and both players need microphones and an internet connection.

Red: I want to try this with someone who’ll stop me when I start saying ‘that thing over there.’ Apparently I’ll need actual descriptive skills.
AIKO: Different clues and different tools make communication part of the puzzle system. I’m curious how much a precise description can save us from a wrong turn.
Your partner has the information you don’t
The two Explorers have different roles and tools, and they do not see the same clues. Progress depends on describing what is in front of you, listening to your partner and combining that information through walkie-talkie communication to solve asymmetrical puzzles.
For the Steam version, the requirements specifically call for a working PC-compatible microphone for each player. Have those ready before arranging a session.
A new puzzle trip through Norček Industries
The setting is the retro-futuristic Norček Industries facility, accompanied by a nostalgic synthwave soundtrack. It gives the pair a shared destination, even when their information and tasks differ.
According to Total Mayhem Games, the We Were Here series has more than 15 million players, while Tomorrow has more than 350,000 wishlists. For partners planning to join this entry, launch-day cross-play means choosing different supported platforms need not keep them apart.
