Long story short, the game itself is based on the Weird West genre it borrows its title from, in which the player takes the role of heroes in the American frontier who encounter supernatural elements. You will discover a dark fantasy reimagining of the Wild West, where the lawmen and gunslingers actually share the frontier with fantastical creatures of all sorts. Each journey you dare to undertake is unique and tailored to the actions taken. Engage in a series of high-stakes adventures where everything counts and the world reacts to the choices you make. If you already purchased Weird West but can’t seem to get it to work on your PC, we can lend a helping hand and provide some workarounds that will restore game functionality.
