7 March 2025 – Developer Bag of Holding, founded by Roll20 co-creator Riley Dutton, is extremely proud to offer the first opportunity to play its debut title, Wyld Land, with an extensive playtest now available on Steam and web browsers.


Wyld Land is a free-to-play fast-paced bullet hell roguelite MMO in the spirit of classic topdown shooters such as Realm of the Mad God and Nuclear Throne. Become a runner and explore a dangerous world decimated by the Ethos, an ancient civilization whose destructive technology still plagues the lands. Navigate ever-changing dungeons and charge through relentless bullet hell combat.


Every run is a chance to seek rare skills and equipment. Every fight is a learning opportunity in a symphony of chaos. And with Wyld Land’s seasonal content updates, from meta-shaking weapons and gear to challenging new bosses, there will always be more to keep you coming back for another run.


The Wyld Land playtest features over 30 hours of content, including 14 dungeons to explore and unique bosses to encounter. Build your runner with collectable loot, equipment, and skills and, when you’ve found your preferred style, dive into the challenging Corrupted Dungeons, which offer progressively difficult encounters and even more potent rewards.


Venture into the depths alone or team up with thousands of players around the world to prevail through monstrous bosses and lightning-fast gameplay together. Wyld Land’s servers are purpose-built for twitch gameplay, designed to accommodate your last-second dodges right down to the pixel.


Bag of Holding is a new indie developer founded by Riley Dutton, co-founder of digital TTRPG platform Roll20 and the creator of OrbusVR, one of the most successful VR MMOs before exiting the project in early 2024. Now, the Bag of Holding team including senior creative producer Courtland Messam (formerly Kongregate, Thought Pennies) and director of marketing Nikko Koruna (formerly NetherRealm Studios) is working tirelessly on Wyld Land to bring players the immediacy of fast-paced action games with the deep, evolving mechanics of MMOs.


Riley Dutton said: “Bag of Holding was created to make the games we want to see in the world. We make no secret of our inspirations – we love Realm of the Mad God, Enter the Gungeon, and Nuclear Throne, and so many others, and we want Wyld Land to join this incredible pantheon. We can’t wait for players to get their first taste of what Wyld Land offers, and with our plans for the future, we want you to be playing for years to come.”


Features include:

 
  • Intense bullet hell combat: Masterfully maneuver through waves of bullets as you unleash destruction. Wield assault rifles, fusion cannons, and more.
     
  • Built for solo and multiplayer: Dive into the run alone or team up with runners in real-time. Wyld Land’s servers are purpose-built for the most frenetic twitch gameplay.
     
  • Death is not the end: You can’t retrieve your equipment if you’re dead. But persistent upgrades – known as Echoes – gradually make you better prepared for your next run.
     
  • Deep build customization: Customize your build through equipment, mix and match weapons, and discover new abilities mid-run to create your perfect dungeon delving character.
     
  • Ever-changing dungeons: Dungeons in Wyld Land are procedurally generated – no run is ever the same. And when you’re ready for the next challenge, mutate the world through corrupted shards. The bigger the challenge, the greater the rewards.

The Wyld Land demo launches today on 7 March on PC via Steam and web browsers through wyld.land, and will be available throughout March and early April 2025.
