Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time Will Bloom Onto Switch In Summer 2024

"I'm gonna send you back a thousand years" sounds like a threat

Seriously though, I'm always up for a life sim and Level-5 does good work.

If the girl can send us back a thousand years, can she send us back to 2004 when everything was all right with the world and we were actually hopeful?

Fantasy Life Switch = Fantasy Life 3DS + ACNH.
I cannot wait the English release in Summer 2024.

Looks awesome! I feel very lucky I found out about Fantasy Life right before the 3DS eShop closed and was able to get it and the DLC. Love this game!

Cautiously optimistic for this.

Not surprised at all by the release date. It was obvious Level-5 wasn't releasing any of these big games in 2023.

@Princess_Lilly The 2020s have sucked, for sure, but claiming that 'everything was alright with the world' post-9/11, post-Patriot Act, post-invasion of Iraq, post-the start of the Afghanistan War... just no, lol.

Now all we need is Metroid Prime 4, Mario Kart 9, Persona 6, the next Elder Scrolls, a new Metal Gear Solid made by Kojima, and this decade of gaming gridlock will end.

Looks exactly like it should, can't wait.

Impressive trailer for it, I'm happy to wait for this as it looks like every game I love all rolled into one

@Princess_Lilly
Actually, that was pre-September, 2001.

I thought there were three or four new classes.

They should have added one more class: ZooKeeper!

Game should be awesome, but those graphics look pretty phoned in. You can do way more than this on a Switch, especially an isometric game. I'll still buy it, but just saying....

Why is the date a secret? Why is it strategic?
No one else makes a game like this?
It'll probably be an April/May release.

@NintendoJunkie
on the DS, "L/R" were used to spin the camera 360°

Coming to Nintendo Switch
Other platforms undecided

I don't like that last part.

I can't wait for this one! The first one is probably one of my most played games on the 3DS!

Well my summer is sorted.

This feels too much like a mobile game. I think I'll just stick with the new Professor Layton instead.

I'll buy this as the original was great and it will be good to play it for a long time with a comfortable controller.

Is the multiplayer online or local only?

@Spider-Kev @Ralizah Depends on where you live, Europe was much better off due to things you mentioned. Although no matter where, and no matter how you look at it, 90s and 00s were still the best 20 years of human history . No hatred, no racism, no emotional damage every day. Everything was new, fun and fresh. We just didn't know what we were about to lose that moment when we counted down to zero and joyfully screamed Happy New Year 13 years ago.

@Princess_Lilly "No hatred, no racism, no emotional damage every day. Everything was new, fun and fresh."

I'm glad you lived a charmed childhood, but that's just... not the case, lol. At least not for America and the middle-east. This decade is becoming a bigger mess than the 00s, but so many terrible things cropped up post-9/11. It was a decade of war, imperialism, torture, mass surveillance, worsening racial tensions with muslims, etc. that capped off with the second biggest global economic downturn in history.

After watching the new Vision trailer I don’t think this is a sequel. It looks like it’s a remaster with additional content such as 2 extra job classes, making it a “deluxe” version of the 3DS game. If that’s the case I’m beyond disappointed.

@Ralizah oh my childhood was not that great, I just decided to focus on the positives. 00s had a great deal of them. Pop-Cultural boom, fantastic music, urban culture, birth of the internet in the shape we know this day. It was a super peaceful decade comparing to what came after. I mean we have a regular war with genocides in the middle of Europe. Imperialism? It was the last decade that was free from influence of both imperialistic/ultranationalistic organizations. CCP wasnt a global threat yet and Russia was still on its knees after enslaved countries got free from it in 89. The main issue with all of these downsides is that they all got so much worse in 10s and 20s. Racial tensions were nothing in 00s comparing to 10s. Back then we had movies with Samuel L Jackson and Will Smith and everyvody loved them, nobody would even think about artificially fanning the flames

I dont mean to say that everything was perfect, but after 2010 everything went south. Every single thing got worse. I respect your opinion if you disagree, I just wanted to state mine.

@Spider-Kev Strategic reasons and other consoles undecided… must mean to coincide with the Switch 2 launch and it’ll be revealed to also be on Switch 2 at a later date. Thank you very much… I’ll put my tin foil hat back on.

I will buy this game.

@Princess_Lilly

You were just young. 9/11 had just happened. We were bombing into oblivion a nation that had nothing to do with it. The housing market was creating a false bubble that would nearly bankrupt the world…and poor/low income people have never recovered their place in that market. I’m sure you meant this as a joke, but the harsh reality is that as we grow older we become more aware of the sh*ttiness of this planet. The goal is to hold onto hope despite that new information.

I'm really liking the changes so far. It seems that Keiji Inafune has fully learned what made Fantasy Life great (at least, to me) and doubled-down on its amenities for the better. Hopefully "cosmetic equipment" is in the works as being able to wear any clothing over your (strongest) equipment would be a blessing.

Do us all a favor, Level 5 Comcept: Take all the time you need necessary before cutting the tape. Don't let Mario Golf: Super Rush or Cyberpunk 2077 be the future of gaming.

@Princess_Lilly Wow! Tell me you don't live in the United States without telling me you don't live in the United States.

@LinktotheFuture no, I don't live in the US and I never said I did. I'm also not sure why that would be relevant?

@JohnnyMind awesome! thank you!

Here's the sad truth 9/11 was a resulting of screwing up the middle east and what would one expected to come home to roast. Take Afghanistan looked whom was kicked out and came right back into power-USA was about nation building and precious resources nothing about humanity was even thought of. And take the solders that serve and got squat help when the came back for their sacrifice. If you want to mention 9/11 you better take responsibility for the aftermath as well since you broke it you should fix it. Always love it when people forget the aftermath now let's what's more on NL.

@Ralizah So bring us to a time where economically it was stable and the country felt secure. So after 2008.
