Maximum Entertainment, Merge Games, and developer Kappa Bits have confirmed a May 8th release date for Pixelshire on PC, with console versions coming later this year.
The teams say that “Pixelshire promises never-ending customization in a beautifully detailed pixelated world”, and have released a new trailer (you can see below) showing off the game, and the newly announced release date.
Embark on thrilling adventures and explore the vast continent of Arcadia—traverse enchanted landscapes, discover hidden treasures, cast your line for the perfect catch, mine for precious ore, and unleash your creativity by terraforming the world into the village of your dreams. With countless ways to shape the land and build your town, no two villages will ever be the same!
By befriending the ever-accommodating townsfolk and lovingly caring for their farm animals, players will never feel alone on their journey. And Pixelshire has plenty of adventures to offer—whether it’s cultivating a thriving farm with fields of crops, mastering the art of magic, or becoming the bravest dungeon explorer the town has ever known, there’s truly something for everyone.
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!
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.
