Into a Hearth Yonder Announced for PC

Developer Sway State Games has announced Into a Hearth Yonder, a new cozy creature-collecting MMO-lite with a charmingly colorful art style that's in the works for PC. It's due out next year. Players in Into a Hearth Yonder, whether playing solo or with friends, will explore the world of Viteria with your loyal following of automata – little companions that can augment your gameplay, like by buffing combat, farming, fishing, mining, and crafting. "We thought it would be fun to embody player stats and skills as cute, Tamagotchi-like automata," said Sway State studio head Chris O'Kelly. "You take joy in collecting and caring for them, and in return, they enhance your exploration of Viteria, improve your quality of life, and empower you to lean fully into your favorite playstyle." "We aimed to lay out a cozy table of adventure, to explore at your own pace, with plenty of building, crafting, exploration, magic," O'Kelly added. "'Survival' but with less struggle - just a worry-free deceleration, really." The Into a Hearth Yonder development team is comprised of a group of people who have worked on the likes of worked on Divinity: Original Sin, Dying Light 2, Harold Halibut, and Horizon: Call of the Mountain.
