Team17 e lo sviluppatore cinese Pathea Games hanno finalmente annunciato che il sandbox RPG My Time at Portia, che trae ispirazione da Animal Crossing, Harvest Moon, Dark Cloud 2 e i lavori di Hayao Miyazaki sarà disponibile su PC, tramite Steam Early Access, PlayStation 4, Xbox One e Nintendo Switch. Se la prima edizione sarà disponibile ad inizio 2018 quella per console invece arriverà solo più avanti nel corso del prossimo anno.
Setting sail for Portia, a town on the edge of civilization, you’ll arrive to find a workshop left to you by your Pa – a place where you can begin to craft a new life, using the relics from the past to improve life for the villagers in the town.
Gather materials from Portia’s stunning open world: cut down trees, forage for herbs, mine in the ruins and even grow your own garden. There are many unique areas for you to explore including deserts, island, reefs, highlands, marshlands, mines and more! There are even two different types of dungeons including abandoned dungeons filled with important resources such as relics and ores for you to harvest or more hazardous dungeons where you’ll be able to encounter and battle monsters!
The world of Portia will feel alive as the villagers have their own unique behaviours and will go to school, do their jobs, work out, have fun and have their own stories to share with you. You’ll be able to befriend and romance the villagers within Portia.
Attualmente su PC tramite Steam, Ichi.io, IndieDB e GameJolt è disponibile la demo di My Time at Portia mentre venerdì sarà disponibile una live traime Twitch. A fine settimana, infine, sarà lanciata una campagna Kickstarter del gioco.
