We recently heard that Summer in Mara will be receiving a physical release in Japan. Now we can say the same about Europe as well.

Today, Tesura Games announced that it has reached an agreement with Chibig Studio for the European physical edition. A release is planned for Q4 2021. More information will follow “soon.”

Tesura Games also says that it will continue to work with Chibig Studio on physical editions of the company’s games.

Deiland: Pocket Planet Edition

System: Switch
Release date: April 15, 2021
Developer: Chibig
Publisher: Chibig


Summer in Mara was one of the more recent games that took me by surprise in terms of how much I enjoyed it, as I really love the sense of serenity it offers with a small but playful map that gives just enough to keep things consistently fun – especially for the explorative types. Though Chibig is no stranger to game development, it was the first of their portfolio to hit consoles, and while the Switch version had a few quirks, it still retained what was most important without having to sacrifice much outside of some visual quality. Deiland may be new to some, but the game has technically been out since Chibig brought it to mobile in 2016. Deiland: Pocket Planet Edition on Switch now marks the third time it has been released, but as someone who’s played it briefly on mobile and then on PC just before the Switch version for the purposes of this review, this would also mark the third time Deiland has simply been… Deiland, with little between releases to feel like a sizeable update or enhancement from prior SKUs.

Deiland: Pocket Planet Edition

Summer in Mara developer Chibig Studio opened a Kickstarter yesterday for Deiland: Pocket Planet Edition, a redone version of its farming adventure game. Having reached its €10,000 goal, the game has been secured for Switch.

Deiland originally released in 2018. For the new Pocket Planet Edition on Switch, fans can expect new content, all DLC included, and graphical/gameplay improvements.

Here’s some additional details plus a trailer:
