FAQ

Is World of Anterra fully open world?

Steam markets it as an open-world RPG with non-linear story. Kickstarter and the official site describe large spaces plus an overworld map for travel between locations.

What is the overworld in World of Anterra?

Kickstarter and website copy describe a zoomable overworld map used to enter towns, dungeons, and other sites rather than walking every mile at field scale.

Does the world use procedural generation?

Yes in part. Official materials say regions are generated based on the player’s save seed while still promising hand-crafted landmarks and content mix.

Do NPCs have schedules?

Kickstarter and website features state NPCs have day-to-day routines and that the world continues in real time unless the player pauses.

How big is the world of Anterra?

Kickstarter and the official site describe oceans, continents, castles, towns, mountains, caves, and dungeons, blended with hand-crafted and procedurally generated spaces. The same campaign text promises over ten unique regions, each with its own residents, flora, fauna, and enemies. Steam markets an open-world RPG with non-linear story. Exact map dimensions and fast-travel rules are not published.

Do NPCs and time matter outside combat?

Kickstarter and website features say NPCs have daily routines and the world runs in real time until paused. The campaign also lists Unity as the engine, with NPC schedules and AI, a node-based dialogue system (NPC-specific lines plus regional and global knowledge pools), and a custom pixel lighting pipeline. Quest tracking appears in development UI below: handwritten map notes and villager tasks (names such as Holland and Mira visible on screen in a development build).

How do seeds and regions work?

Kickstarter states that areas generate based on the player’s save seed while mixing in hand-crafted content. Six main populations each carry distinct culture and traits across those regions. Lore on faith and magic lives in The Eye and Antheism and magic four vibrations.

Which peoples and ancient races appear in lore?

Kickstarter names three ancient races alongside the six populations:

Dragons: no adult dragon has been seen; only giant bones remain.
Faeries: mysterious, known mainly through rumor.
Gorians: an ancient, terrifying race that once ruled the world.

Individual population names beyond that summary are not listed in the public sources this wiki verified.

What can you do between main quests?

Kickstarter’s Activities list includes detective work, faerie hunting, treasure maps, building, crafting, cooking, gathering, hunting, and fishing. Cooking ranges from dragging meat to a fire to mixing ingredients in a pot, and players can loot containers by hand. Steam news posts add non-combat sword and bow uses (2026-01-23), water depth for fishing and sailing (2026-03-12), and Boom Barrels tied to the Mancian Wastelands (2026-03-07). A bestiary can grant combat bonuses when filled, per official feature lists.

What is still unknown before launch?

Public demo, Early Access, and calendar release dates are not announced; see release date and demo and Early Access. Trailers and wishlists are on the development timeline.
