As Animal Crossing: New Horizons is basically considered a dead game, fans of the series are desperately craving a new title to fill the Animal crossing-shaped hole in their chest. The recently wrapped Nintendo Direct may have announced exactly what they were looking for. Not only does this title bring the wholesome charm of AC, but it also offers a fantasy adventure. 

Japanese developers, Level-5, revealed their new game, Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time, in the latest Direct. It is a social slow-life RPG fantasy that mixed up the Animal Crossing gameplay with the RPG games like Dragon Quest and Zelda. After years since the release of the last Fantasy Life game, fans couldn’t be more excited for the release. 

Can Fantasy Life i, the new Nintendo game be the new Animal Crossing?

In the latest Direct, Level-5 was one of the brightest stars. The developer announced a variety of titles as well as new IPs. The Japanese gaming company started the year with a bang as their catalog included some big announcements including, a new puzzle RPG Deca Police Game, a brand new Professor Layton game, and, the most anticipated, Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time.

This feature reminded the fans of a certain Nintendo game that gave the freedom to the players to manage their own island village. Just like in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, players will get to Terraform their islands to give them the shape and style their heart desire. But that’s not it. 

Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time also offers an in-depth role and job system. Some of them are Woodcutter, Angler, Cook, Paladin, Magician, and more. Players will have the full freedom to choose any of these roles and help their community grow.
