The Good Life‘s release date is on October 15, 2021, simultaneously coming out on Steam, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One.

At first glance, well-known video game director Hidetaka “Swery” Suehiro's latest game seems to be a more lighthearted adventure compared to his past works. But don't let the colorful village fool you.

In this RPG, players take on the role of Naomi Hayward, a photographer from New York City who is tasked to investigate some mysterious happenings in Rainy Woods. And then a dead body appears in the river. Besides quirky characters like The Woodland Witch, there's also the whole transforming into cats and dogs business going about—just as expected from a Swery game.

All the twists and turns are sure to bring an eerie yet thrilling experience, especially for those who have been backing the game since Swery set up a Kickstarter page in 2018. After delays to the launch, players just have to wait a few days longer before they can grab a copy of The Good Life.
