'Palia' is a Free Farming MMO Coming to the Nintendo Switch

— June 24, 2023 — Art & Design
Palia is an online community simulation game developed by Singularity 6, a new game studio founded by veterans from Blizzard, Epic, Riot, Zynga, and Sony. The game was revealed in June 2021 and is expected to launch in 2023 for PC and consoles. Palia is set in a beautiful and inviting fantasy world where humans are the legendary race that disappeared thousands of years ago and are now returning.

In Palia, players can create their own characters, build their homes, meet and befriend a cast of non-playable characters, and experience an evolving narrative with other players. The game features deep customization systems, a robust Neighborhood system that allows players to form communities, and a social matchmaking system that ensures friends and neighbors are always close by. Palia is designed to be a cozy and relaxing game that gives players the freedom to live their fantasy lives. The game will have a free-to-play model with optional microtransactions.
