Singularity 6’s cozy MMO Palia is coming to the Epic Games Store with every content and quality-of-life-update available so far. This marks the first time the free-to-play game is available outside Singularity 6’s own launcher, as the developer gears up to launch it on other platforms, including the Nintendo Switch, later in 2023.
“Epic Games is a pioneer in establishing an accessible platform that publishes video game content that appeals to its community,” Anthony Leung, Singularity 6 co-founder and CEO, said in a statement. “Palia is a perfect fit on the Epic Games Store, and offers the Epic Games community, and existing Palia players, an opportunity to make even more meaningful in-game connections via community-driven gameplay and life-sim mechanics that create a sense of belonging among players.”
Palia’s launch on Epic – and subsequent platforms, when it happens – brings with it all current updates. These include the fan-requested “Hotdari” update that makes Hodari a romanceable NPC, a Halloween update, and the platformer-inspired Palia obstacle course. There’s also a suite of new outfits, quests, and recipes to dig into, so whether you’re keen on uncovering the world’s mysteries or just kicking back in your garden, there’s plentyof ways to spend your days.
Palia is all about just chilling as you see fit. There’s a big world to explore and quests to complete with friends in multiplayer play, or you can get chummy with the locals and help with their problems. If you’d rather hang out at home all day, like me, you can do that as well. Palia lets you design every aspect of your home, cook lavish meals for your friends, or just vibe in the garden and watch the clouds roll by.
In other words, if you like the sound of an Animal Crossing MMO, this is probably for you.
