Bossa Games and publisher Team17 have confirmed the release window for their upcoming co-op title, What Goes Up. This announcement matters to players who enjoy physics-based building challenges because it sets a clear timeline for when the game will arrive on major platforms. The studio is targeting a 2026 launch, giving developers time to refine the mechanics before the public release.
Bossa Games targets 2026 release for physics-based co-op title
The game casts players as employees of GALACTIC REFUSE CO., a fictional corporation tasked with extracting valuable items from hazardous planets. You will construct structures out of junk to survive these dangerous environments. The experience supports both solo play and cooperative multiplayer modes, allowing friends to team up for the physics-based stacking challenges.
Technical details highlight the game's reliance on physics-based stacking mechanics to drive gameplay. Players must carefully balance and connect junk components to build stable structures. This approach requires precision and cooperation, especially in the multiplayer mode where teams must coordinate their building efforts to succeed.
What Goes Up is scheduled to arrive on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series consoles, and PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store. The global release window is set for 2026, though specific dates and pricing have not yet been disclosed. We looked at Dumb Ways to Build Co-op Game earlier while tracking Bossa games launches.
The confirmed platforms and release year provide the first concrete details for this physics-based building title. Players can expect a co-op focused experience that combines structural engineering with hazardous planet exploration. The 2026 timeline remains the primary anchor for future updates on the game's development progress.
