Animal Crossing New Horizons dropped on Nintendo Switch back in 2020. Many players have sunk hundreds of hours on their little Animal villages. Those coming off New Horizons, or who don’t have access to a Nintendo Switch, can rest assured. Independent developer Robert Tatnell’s Hokko Life has officially joined Steam Early Access.
Announced via a Tweet on the game’s official Twitter page, Hokko Life has officially joined Steam Early Access. This collaborative venture with Team17 aims to create a “cozy, cute life-sim game” in the same vein as Animal Crossing or Harvest Moon. Players will be able to take control of a customizable character, living in a town ran by anthropomorphic animals.
