The cosy co-op, Stardew Valley-inspired, Earthlock spinoff, Ikonei Island: An Earthlock Adventure, will release on Thursday, November 9th on PC, Xbox and PlayStation, with Switch coming at a later date, at a retail price of $24.99 (£20.99). The game can also be enjoyed for free with someone that owns the game via the Ikonei Island: Friends’ Pass, which launched on Steam last week!The new developer commentary video showcases how Ikonei Island blends the joys of farming with the excitement of building your own unique home. The game delivers a whole host of creative features, including the ability to build, upgrade and expand your home to your own vision, whether that be a cosy cottage with a garden, or a cute campsite with a sprawling farm. From lush gardens to cosy interiors, the power to shape your living space is in your own hands and the possibilities are endless.Dive further into the world of Ikonei Island by upgrading the central hamlet. This will make new machinery available. For example, unlocking the blacksmith opens the use of the smelter, which allows you to smelt ores into ingots.Ikonei Island is a gorgeous, cosy adventure that you can play solo or with your friends. You explore the beautiful island, bond with magical creatures and harness their abilities, uncover hidden mysteries, collect items to craft a charming home, battle pirates and more. The game is reminiscent of cosy classics like Stardew Valley, Animal Crossing and My Time at Portia, but brings its own depth of narrative as it taps into the enchanting themes originally explored in Snowcastle’s Earthlock.Ikonei Island is currently available in Early Access on Steam and coming to the Epic Game Store, Playstation and Xbox on November 9th and, later, Nintendo Switch.Find out more:STEAM EARLY ACCESS:https://store.steampowered.com/app/1550730/Ikonei_Island_An_Earthlock_Adventure/WEBSITE: https://www.snowcastlegames.com/ikonei-islandAbout Snowcastle Games:Snowcastle Games is an independent game developer founded in Oslo, Norway in 2009 with the aim of creating games we love and would want to play ourselves.
