Winds of Viridia Release Date — Early 2027 (Q1 on Steam)

Last verified: 2026-10-29

When is Winds of Viridia coming out?

Shark Jump announced Winds of Viridia on 2026-10-28 during the Nintendo Indie World (Fall 2026) showcase as the first game revealed in that broadcast. Press and store listings describe the launch window as Early 2027.

On Steam (AppID 5178570), the release display reads Q1 2027. That aligns with the broader “Early 2027” wording used on the official site and in outlets such as Gematsu and Console Creatures.
