Four things this site answers first
Release window, honestly
Steam says 2026 and nothing more specific. No price, no demo, no pre-order. If a site gives you a day, ask where it came from.
Co-op, in exact terms
Four players online, four on one screen, and cross-platform play between them. Steam's category list is the only source that spells this out.
Combat that is not turn-based
Grid-based tactical movement plus quick-time actions. Most listings call it turn-based; 81monkeys' own description does not.
What is announced vs confirmed
PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and GOG were promised on the 2022 Kickstarter. Steam still lists Windows only, so we keep the two apart.

What World of Anterra is
World of Anterra is a handcrafted open-world RPG from 81monkeys, a small studio led by Stephane. Development started in 2018, ran a Kickstarter campaign in 2022, and has been through funding collapses and rebuilds that the Founder's Journals document in detail.
The pitch is exploration over menus: towns with their own rhythms, NPCs who eat and work and travel on a daily schedule, readable books, breakable objects, and a conversation system that takes typed input instead of four canned replies. Combat mixes grid-based tactical movement with quick-time actions, so harder fights are about reading enemy behaviour rather than memorising a rotation.
