Fantasy Life i might be the star of the Switch 2 launch, providing both the Animal Crossing and RPG experience it needs


Got an Animal Crossing itch to scratch on Switch 2? How about an RPG itch to go with it? Well look no further than Fantasy Life i.

This place is massive and much more closely resembles the kind of adventuring land you find in a typical action-based RPG (and which will be the basis of the roguelike mode being developed for the game, by the way). It's the sort of place with zoned biomes and packs of enemies that gradually increase in strength, and even towers and shrines to unlock that do similar things as in the recent Zelda games - reveal nearby locations, or offer puzzles. For instance, combat prowess: you can level up in your chosen Life while out adventuring, but you can't increase your rank without doing jobs for the guild master, who's back in town.
