Posted on September 13, 2022 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop
Dauntless developer Phoenix Labs today unveiled Fae Farm, “a new cozy-casual farming and life simulation that invites players to escape with friends into an enchanted world filled with wonder.” A release is planned for Q2 2023 exclusively on Switch.
Fae Farm lets players control an adventurer invited to join a friendly community and create a home while restoring harmony to the land of Azoria. They can build out their homesteads, explore varied environments, gather resources, and plumb the depths of the world to uncover the magic they’ll need to rebuild Azoria. Single-player is fully supported, though the game also allows for seamless drop-in, drop-out play through online and local wireless multiplayer.
Phoenix Labs CEO and co-founder Jesse Houston said of today’s announcement: “[Creative Director] Katie De Sousa’s vision for Fae Farm has excited us for a long time, and you can feel the passion she and the team have poured into the game from day one,” said Jesse Houston, CEO and Co-founder, Phoenix Labs. “From the artwork and the game design, to the handcrafted world and seamless online play, Fae Farm exemplifies our desire to create timeless games that will be shared for generations.”
“With Fae Farm we wanted to take our favorite elements of the sim genres we love, infuse them with magic and beautiful art, and wrap everything in a light-hearted cooperative experience,” De Sousa added. “I can’t wait to see what kind of cozy homesteads players build in Azoria.”
Steve Singer, senior VP of publisher & developer relations at Nintendo of America, added: “At home or on the go, Nintendo Switch players love coming together to explore deep game worlds. Phoenix Labs has a vibrant history of bringing immersive experiences to life, as seen with Dauntless, and we’re thrilled to welcome Fae Farm with its enchanting and adventurous cooperative experiences to Nintendo Switch.”
