TomorrowHead Studio Announce Delay to WILL: Follow the Light

The upcoming first-person adventure WILL: Follow the Light was due to be released by the end of 2025 across multiple platforms. However, a post on social media last night by the team developing the title has now pushed back the launch. This is the first game from the team based in Washington, and they have just completed some closed Playtests ahead of the game release. Find out more below as TomorrowHead Studio announce a delay to WILL: Follow the Light.

WILL: Follow the Light is a first-person puzzle adventure game set at the top of the Northern Hemisphere. Per the team at TomorrowHead Studio, “As you journey with Will, you’ll explore distant corners of the world to uncover answers about his past. Engage with intricate puzzles involving elevators, heavy machinery, weather stations, and navigation tools. Carefully observe your surroundings, search for clues, and solve the mysteries to progress through the game. Each puzzle deepens your connection with the story and adds excitement to the adventure.“

“Players assume the role of Will, a lighthouse keeper on a remote island in the northern seas. The story begins during one of Will’s lonely shifts when an unexpected radio message shatters the routine: a sudden disaster has struck his hometown, and his only son is missing. Determined to find him, Will sets out on a journey aboard his sailing yacht, “Molly.”

WILL: Follow The Light blends classic walking-sim gameplay with puzzles, set-piece moments and original and lifelike traversal systems on sea and on land. As players progress, they will solve puzzles rooted in real life, take to the seas in a realistic sailing yacht, chart their path using an authentic weather station and lifelike navigation system, and traverse snowy trails by dog sled in search of answers.“

WILL: Follow the Light is now due to be released in 2026, on Xbox, PlayStation and PC, and it sounds like the team behind the game are preparing some special gifts to soften the blow of the delay.
