Revealed during the XBOX Games Showcase, JOIN US is a co-op dark comedy sandbox survival game about building your own doomsday cult. Available on XBOX, PC (Microsoft, Steam and Epic), and PlayStation
MONTRÉAL — June 10, 2026 — Montreal-based Independent game studio Wolf Haus Games today revealed that its darkly comedic cult simulator survival / action game JOIN US, will launch in March 2027, with day one access on XBOX Game Pass for XBOX Series X|S and PC and simultaneous releases on PlayStation 5, and Steam and the Epic Games Store. Wishlisting is available now on XBOX, Steam and the Epic Games Store storefronts. The game’s newly released 3rd trailer can be viewed here.
JOIN US is coming to PC and Console in March 2027
Start a doomsday cult, build a compound, recruit converts, arm them for battle, build your own custom belief system – and expand your influence across the game’s open world map as you prepare for the apocalypse in JOIN US, a single-player or 2–4 player co-op action-survival sandbox experience.
“As a 10-person indie studio we’re thrilled to be in a position to sim-ship JOIN US on both console and PC.” said Dooma Wendschuh, Co-Founder, Chief Financial Officer and Narrative Director for Wolf Haus Games.“ XBOX and XBOX Game Pass have shown amazing support for our game by bringing JOIN US to their console. This will allow us to reach an even wider audience and with a more polished game.”
Join Us features include:
- Sandbox experience with a strong narrative campaign: Players are free to create their own stories in JOIN US’ world, designed around escalating chaos with an Apocalypse just around the corner. Or stick to the narrative campaign and see if you have what it takes to survive the end of days.
- Convert the County: Any NPC, and many of the game’s enemies can be persuaded to join your cult. Win them over through well chosen propaganda – and shape lost souls into devoted followers. Each recruit comes with their own unique set of skills which can be leveled up.
- Play as any cult member: Possess any of your cult’s followers at any time. This means that followers serve not only as workers and companions, but also additional lives and potential fast travel locations. On the wrong side of the map for a mission? Switch to a follower at a more convenient location.
- Create your own beliefs: Carefully craft your cult’s beliefs using the game’s Teachings System. Your choices shape how your followers behave, how others react to your cult, and can even impact the outcome of combat encounters. Your cult, your choice. Are you a cult of bear-riding druids, or cannibals with a social media presence?
- Master your Compound: Build a compound, manage materials, food, devotion, infamy, and ammo as you design, expand, and defend the sacred grounds your followers will call home. As your forces grow, so will your territory – through the acquisition of remote “outposts”. Defend your turf or risk losing it to the angry locals.
- Co-Op Gameplay with Crossplay: Enjoy the single player campaign or play with up to three friends using Crossplay.
“There’s never been a more exciting time to release a game like JOIN US on XBOX. Asha Sharma and her amazing team are committed to the players, but also to new developers like Wolf Haus Games, who create colorful worlds with a distinct point of view.” said Michael W. Abbott, Co-Founder and COO at Wolf Haus Games. “It’s incredible to be given this platform to share our creative voice with the community.”
More Time For More Better Cult Stuff
“With a March 2027 launch, Wolf Haus Games will have time to optimize, polish, and ensure a stable network experience complete with Cross Play,” said Joe Dietsch, Co-Founder, CEO and Creative Director at Wolf Haus Games. “Launching across console and PC allows the team to deliver the best version of JOIN US while welcoming a new ecosystem of aspiring cult leaders.”
JOIN US is available to wishlist today on Steam, the Epic Games Store, and the XBOX Store. For the latest, follow Wolf Haus Games on Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok, Youtube and X and visit [wolfhausgames.com]. Assets can be found here.
