Fantasy Life i: The Woman Who Steals Time – the sequel to developer Degree 5’s 2012 Nintendo DS life sim and RPG factor – is getting a bunch of free DLC, which we already knew. What we weren’t beforehand conscious of, nevertheless, is that its DLC will embrace an open-world roguelike mode.
It is not fully clear why a comparatively laidback, job-focused life sim RPG would need to get in on the roguelike motion, however that is what Degree 5 goes for. As detailed in its announcement weblog, the replace – which is presently „actively underway“ – will characteristic an „developed model of Ginormosia, together with a system mixing roguelike and open-world parts“.
Degree 5’s announcement stops in need of explaining how the brand new mode will truly work, nevertheless it does say the replace will embrace „participating content material for each skilled gamers and newcomers alike.“ Moreover, the replace guarantees „highly effective new gear“, plus „fashionable tools, mounts, and quite a lot of uncommon objects.“ A phone manufactured from butts instantly springs to thoughts, however I believe I am more likely to be disillusioned.
And we’re not fairly achieved but. Fantasy Life i’s free DLC replace may even embrace a brand-new character who’ll „go away a big mark on the world“, plus new hairstyles and new emotes to „make it much more pleasant for gamers to specific themselves in-game“. As for when all this may present up, Degree 5 says „as quickly as attainable“.
„Degree 5 appreciates everybody’s continued assist and stays dedicated to repeatedly refining Fantasy Life i: The Woman Who Steals Time,“ it concludes in its announcement submit, „in addition to increasing content material to supply the very best gaming expertise.“
Why all this free DLC? That’ll be all the way down to Fantasy Life i’s spectacular gross sales, with the sport having already shifted 1m copies since its launch on the finish of Might. Degree 5 can also be celebrating the milestone with a „commemorative reward code“ that’ll unlock an „unique piece of apparatus“, plus a „commemorative Pegasus mount“ – though its submit profusely apologises for mistakenly giving gamers on sure platforms a unicorn as a substitute. That error ought to now be mounted, alas.
And if you would like to bump that gross sales quantity as much as 1m and one, Fantasy Life i: The Woman Who Steals Time is accessible now on Steam, Xbox Sequence X/S, PlayStation 5, Swap, and Swap 2.
