Animal Crossing-Like Floatopia Journeys to Android

NetEase Games unveiled its charming life sim, Floatopia, at Gamescom, promising a multi-platform release, including Android, sometime in 2025. This whimsical game features a sky-bound world of floating islands and unique characters. The trailer depicts a peaceful environment where players farm, fish, and customize their airborne homes.

A Surprisingly Cute Apocalypse

The game's premise: the world ends, but in a delightfully quirky way, reminiscent of "My Time At Portia" rather than "Fallout." Players inhabit a world of fragmented landmasses suspended in the sky, populated by individuals with diverse, and sometimes underwhelming, superpowers. The unexpected potential of these abilities is a key element of the narrative.

As the Island Manager, you'll engage in familiar activities reminiscent of "Animal Crossing" and "Stardew Valley," cultivating crops, cloud fishing, and decorating your island home. The mobile nature of your home allows for exploration and socializing with other players.

Form friendships, host island parties, and share adventures with your in-game companions, each possessing unique quirks and abilities. Multiplayer is optional, allowing for a solitary or social experience.

While a precise release date remains unconfirmed, pre-registration is available on the official website.
