Wolf Haus Games development of ‘Join Us’

Overview

Wolf Haus Games has begun revealing details for its upcoming open-world co-op cult simulator, ‘Join Us’. During gamescom, the developer released 11 minutes of gameplay showcasing the darkly satirical survival/action title, which allows players to recruit followers, design compounds, and manage follower satisfaction to prevent desertion. The game is scheduled for a March 2027 release on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5.

Following the gameplay reveal, CEO Joe Dietsch detailed the game’s setting in a decaying part of America, where players face extraterrestrial and demonic threats. Dietsch also highlighted a community-driven development model, noting that the studio uses a Discord community to integrate player requests, such as using community-provided names for NPCs and player-drawn artwork for in-game posters.
