PQube and MindFuel Games have revealed that their unique blend of roguelike strategy and word puzzles, called Beyond Words, is coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam in early 2026. A playable demo is currently available on PC.

Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:

The team behind classic games like GoldenEye and TimeSplitters presents Beyond Words, a unique blend of strategic roguelike gameplay and word puzzles. Create strong combinations, earn improvements, and conquer a difficult challenge where success depends on your spelling skills.

Create strong word combinations, earn valuable upgrades, and explore a dynamic puzzle world where your choices have real consequences. Everything you do – each word you form, each letter you place – affects your journey.

Customize your game exactly how you like! Change how points are awarded for letters, copy the letters you enjoy using, and get rid of the ones you don’t. Use modifiers, stickers, and special features to really bend the rules and create a unique experience – every decision you make affects how the game plays out.

Solve tricky problems with careful thought, or challenge yourself to speed through levels with optional timed leaderboards.

As a huge fan, I’m blown away by how much variety there is! We’re talking over 300 different ways to change up the game with special tiles, cards that give you a boost, power-ups you can grab, and all sorts of awesome perks and abilities. It really keeps things fresh and exciting!

With countless ways to combine abilities, you’ll constantly discover new strategies and exciting opportunities. It’s a game of powerful combinations and smart choices, where every decision can significantly change how a game unfolds. The more you play, the more options you unlock, making each run feel fresh and rewarding.

I’m totally hooked on this game! Every board feels like a brand new challenge, and what you say and do really impacts how things play out. The rules, the board itself, and even what you’re trying to achieve are constantly changing, so you have to think on your feet and adjust your strategy. It’s a really dynamic and tactical experience.

Think ahead and help your future self succeed! Plan your moves carefully, aiming for high-scoring words and clever combinations. It’s like being a strategist, setting up amazing plays for a perfect finish.

Battle over 30 different Bosses, each with unique challenges that change how the game works. If you’re up for even more, try completing time trials, playing with set starting conditions, or tackling the incredibly difficult negative scoring mode.

With constantly increasing goals and ongoing gameplay, you’ll always have a chance to show off your abilities and prove how skilled you are through satisfying and rewarding challenges.

The game is simple to learn with its classic letter-tile gameplay, but offers deep strategy for those who want a challenge, making it enjoyable for everyone from casual players to serious strategists.

Whether you’re aiming for top scores, trying out creative combinations, or just enjoying a calming word puzzle, Beyond Words offers a world of discovery where every letter and every choice matters.
