Evaluation

We Were Here Expeditions: The FriendShip launched on September 14, 2023 as a free, bite-sized standalone co-op puzzle experience — explicitly described by the developer as a self-contained spin-off entry in the "Expeditions" sub-series. Two small bug-fix patches followed in September and October 2023 to address launch issues, and no new content has been added to the game since. The only DLC on record is the game's soundtrack, which released on September 15, 2023. No unreleased DLC entries exist and no new content for this specific title has been announced. Developer news posted to the game's page has since focused entirely on the broader We Were Here franchise: the July 2025 announcement of the older trilogy coming to Nintendo Switch, and announcements throughout 2026 for a new mainline entry, We Were Here Tomorrow, which is set to launch on October 20, 2026. None of these posts announce additional content for The FriendShip itself. The September 2024 first-anniversary post celebrated the game's reception and teased "more on the horizon" for the franchise generally, but made no specific commitment to new content for The FriendShip. The December 2025 holiday recap similarly pointed to 2026 being exciting for the studio — referring to We Were Here Tomorrow, which was revealed shortly after. The FriendShip launched as a complete, self-contained package and has remained so. The studio's energy is now directed toward We Were Here Tomorrow.

About this game

Think you and your bestie can take on any challenge together? We’d like to see you try! This new bite-sized standalone We Were Here experience will really put your friendship to the test. To prove that your friendship can overcome anything, you will need to take on several puzzling challenges.

It’s all about Communication, Teamwork… and Trust. Talk together, work together, and most of all, believe in your friend.

The two of you are alone at sea when pursuing a distress call leads you to a deserted island, where you encounter a mysterious boat ride in an abandoned amusement park. This is a voyage you won’t forget, with puzzles that take two to solve. The state of your friendship will directly affect the state of your friend-ship!

Be aware, this is an actual test as you’ll be graded on how well you solve these puzzles! Will friendship truly last forever? Or is this friend-ship sinking to the bottom of the ocean?

We Were Here ‘Expedition’ Series

From the makers of the renowned We Were Here Series comes the bite-sized We Were Here Expeditions! The perfect chance for new Explorers to get a taste of our flavour of co-op puzzle fun - while longtime fans can try to achieve the perfect score. Everything's better together with a friend, and crossplay is supported so if your friends use a different platform you can still board the friend-ship!

Playing with your friend and communicating well is key to the series: asymmetrical puzzles give players different perspectives and can only be solved together. But don’t worry, your walkie-talkies will let you keep in touch. Over and out!

NOTE: This game is co-op only. It requires both players to have a working PC-compatible microphone and an internet connection.
