I also saw Fae Farm’s multiplayer in action, as up to four players can independently farm and explore simultaneously. Players will only have to worry about equipping tools themselves if they want to use their fishing pole, net, or wand at specific locations. Pressing the same button will cut down a tree with an ax or water crops with a watering can, contextually equipping itself. That isn’t an issue in Fae Farm, as one button press will do. Typically, players have to go into submenus to switch between tools as they tend to their land in most farming games.

He then did some light farming, which played similarly to most other games in the genre, although one unique feature immediately caught my attention. To start, we began in a quaint early-game farm with just a batch of planted crops and a small house to its name. Here are some images from the game shared by the developers.During the hands-off demo, I saw Epp and other developers play through different parts of Fae Farm at various stages of progression. There’s a single-player option too but you and your friends will be able to “build homesteads, explore varied environments, gather resources, and plumb the depths of the world to uncover the magic they’ll need to rebuild Azoria.” Meanwhile, you’ll also be able to restore the larger magical land Azoria, where the game takes place. In the game, you’ll take on the role of an adventurer who joins a new community and creates a new home. The developers said it will enable players to easily drop-in and drop-out of play throughout activities. In the game, you can build farms, go on quests, and adventure with friends in online or local co-op. The game will released exclusively on Nintendo Switch and is scheduled to launch in the second quarter of 2023, so around the summertime.Ī huge draw of Fae Farm appears to be its multiplayer features. Phoenix Labs, the maker of free-to-play co-op action RPG Dauntless, announced a new game on Tuesday: Fae Farm, an adorable and cozy farming simulator where you can build explore a magical land and farm with friends.
