RainyGames and Merge Games have announced that the farming life sim SunnySide will be released on PS5 in the Summer after next month’s PC launch.
SunnySide is set in a small yet diverse Japanese town and claims to modernize the farming sim (specifically the Stardew Valley model that itself modernized Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons).
SunnySide release date and trailer
PS5 and Xbox Series X|S players will be able to chill on the farm when SunnySide is released on July 10, 2024. PS5 players also have the added bonus of a physical edition. PC players can be the early bird and get it on Steam on May 24 or, indeed, play the demo right now.
You can watch the release date trailer below to get a feel for the cozy anime-infused life sim.
Featuring a rich anime-inspired cast of characters, modern farm-sim gameplay, and a cozy turn-based combat system, SunnySide promises to push the boundaries of the entire genre.
With over a hundred different crops to grow and more than 25 characters to meet, SunnySide‘s “hang out” system allows players to balance cultivating new relationships while building their perfect homestead seamlessly.
