Maximum Entertainment and Kappa Bits have announced that their sandbox RPG Pixelshire is coming to Nintendo Switch.
In the adorable pixel-art world of Arcadia, you will have the chance to build an idyllic town and the farm of your dreams – meeting new friends and inviting them to stay with you as you grow your community.
Whether digging long and winding rivers that weave between your customised homes to creating multi-tiered farms on raised areas of land, you will farm a huge variety of crops and livestock as your community expands.
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Gather Resources… But Not Alone: Forge friendships in Pixelshire that go beyond just company. These friends can become your allies, accompanying you on adventures and lending a helping hand in gathering resources and completing tasks thanks to the “follow me” feature, making your journeys across Pixelshire more enjoyable and immersive.
- Resculpt The World Through Terraforming: Shape Pixelshire’s land the way you want with unique terraforming features. Carve rivers or create beautiful little hills wherever you please, crafting a landscape that reflects your imagination.
- Unlock a Plethora of Skills And Talents: As you help others with their tasks, you’ll unlock new skills and talents tailored to each NPC’s profession, growing stronger and more efficient with each new lesson learned. For example, there’s an unlockable talent from Captain Farrell that can enhance your culinary skills, resulting in tastier dishes that offer additional stamina recovery benefits!
- Settle Houses For Your Community: With the ability to build and place houses for your residents, you have the opportunity to design every corner of Pixelshire to reflect the personality and preferences of its inhabitants. Embrace the freedom of town design ensuring each resident enjoys a personalized home perfectly suited to their needs and preferences.
- Unravel The Treasures of Arcadia: Embark on thrilling adventures and explore the vast continent of Arcadia. Traverse enchanted landscapes and discover hidden treasures scattered throughout the land. Delve into perilous dungeons, mine for precious ore, and uncover the secrets that lie beneath the surface.
Pixelshire will be released at retail and digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide in 2024.
