Seed Sparkle Lab’s forthcoming anime-inspired life and farming sim Starsand Island will land on PC and Xbox later this month.
Revealed today, the game will land on Steam Early Access and Xbox Preview on February 11. Starsand Island will see a full release this summer on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC (via Steam). The official release will also see the addition of its multiplayer mode. An announcement trailer can be seen here.
A synopsis for Starsand Island reads:
Set on a relaxing island, far from the hustle and bustle of big city life, Starsand Island sees the player’s character return to their childhood home on a journey of personal healing. Along the way, they’ll master a series of skills including farming and fishing; make new friends and relationships with islanders; and explore every part of the peaceful paradise - including mysterious ruins inhabited by incredible creatures - on foot or on a selection of vehicles, from roller blades through to hoverboards, cars, and motorbike with sidecar!
They’ll also be able to build the home of their dreams down to every photo frame with Starsand Island’s intricate and extensive DIY and construction system, and invite friends to help craft their paradise together. Once their ideal house has been built - whether that’s a grand manor, mid-century bungalow, quaint cottage, or any other design they have in mind - players will be able to decorate and furnish the interior and exterior with a range of decor.
