Cosy RPG Hawthorn looks like Stardew Valley and Skyrim had an adorable baby together


Yesterday, several former developers from studios such as Bethesda, BioWare and Naughty Dog revealed their upcoming game - the delightful looking Hawthorn.

Hawthorn is coming from brand-new indie developer NEARstudios, which boasts some impressive talent including Mass Effect and The Last of Us veterans, as well as Skyrim's lead designer Bruce Nesmith. Watch on YouTube"Once upon a time, woodland creatures built a trading post in forgotten Windermere Valley, but now it is the haunt of varmints, fairy lights, and mysterious rumours about why this village was abandoned," reads the official blurb below the trailer. Elsewhere in cosy game-related news, Tales of the Shire - the upcoming Hobbit life sim from Wētā Workshop and Private Division - was recently delayed, having initially been set to release this year.
