Join Us: Watch 11 Minutes of Exclusive Gameplay from the Upcoming Cult Simulator | gamescom 2026
Wolf Haus Games revealed 11 minutes of gameplay for Join Us at gamescom 2026, alongside a PS5 announcement and a trailer featuring real-life former cult members.
The upcoming open-world co-op game, Join Us, has just unveiled a significant amount of exclusive gameplay footage during IGN's gamescom programming. IGN has released over 11 minutes of the exclusive footage, giving fans a deeper understanding of the game's mechanics and overall experience.
Join Us is a darkly satirical survival/action cult simulator set to release on PS5 alongside PC and Xbox Series X/S versions in March 2027. The game allows players to create their own doomsday cult, with four 4-player co-op options available in both campaign and free roam modes.
In a groundbreaking move, IGN has also obtained exclusive footage of four real-life former cult members collaborating in Join Us. The video features Jaga, Javier, Ariel, and Elena - individuals who have collectively spent over 50 years in their respective unique societies. These groups include a cult preparing for aliens' arrival, a peaceful cult focused on martial arts and self-defense training, and a holistic rejuvenation cult.
The developers emphasize the importance of having followers in a cult, stating, "A cult leader without any followers is just a lonely weirdo." In Join Us, players must maintain the happiness of their recruits, as a lack thereof will result in members leaving the cult.
