Solvers can now play the official Wordle archive with New York Times Games

New York Times Games is excited to announce a new feature that will delight Wordle enthusiasts around the world: the Wordle archive. For the first time since its acquisition, we are expanding our beloved daily word puzzle by offering Games and All Access subscribers exclusive access to more than 1,000 past Wordle puzzles.

Starting today, we're rolling out the Wordle archive on mobile and desktop, followed by the Games app in the coming weeks. The rollout to all Games and All Access subscribers will take place over the next couple of months. This feature will be available to subscribers globally.

Introducing the Wordle archive ensures our community of solvers can catch up on the puzzles they may have missed, solve them at their own pace or simply enjoy more of the game they know and love. We know being able to reflect on their play history is important. Subscribers can now see and save their progress on past Wordle puzzles within the archive. Solvers can also browse through the calendar of past Wordle puzzles going back to June 2021, share their results with family and friends and get WordleBot analysis of their archive play.

Jonathan Knight, head of Games at The New York Times, said: "We are thrilled to unlock the official Wordle archive for our subscribers. This expansion is not just about playing past puzzles; it's about deepening the connection our community has with Wordle and with each other. We believe this will make the daily puzzle even more engaging and provide even more moments of surprise and delight for our subscribers to share with friends and family."

The New York Times Company acquired Wordle in early 2022 and it continues to captivate tens of millions of players every week. Wordle is a phenomenon that is not only woven into the cultural conversation but one that continues to capture our collective imagination.
