Pixelshire News

I've seen a lot of questions about Pixelshire on Steam Deck! 🎮

Based on our testing, the game should be playable on Steam Deck at PC launch. However, our primary focus right now is on the PC version and controller support.

Official Steam Deck support is planned for later this year alongside the console release, and we’ll share more details about its status as we get closer to launch so you’ll know what to expect.

We are thrilled to share the long-awaited news! Pixelshire is coming to PC on May 8th! That's less than two months until you can embark on your journey to grow your community, plan your town, master trades, get to know your neighbors, and explore the enchanting continent of Arcadia.

Hey everyone!

We know many of you are eagerly awaiting news on Pixelshire’s release, and we truly appreciate your patience and support. Our goal is to launch sometime in Spring, but we’re not ready to lock in an exact date just yet.

Right now, our focus is on polishing the game, fixing remaining bugs, and refining gameplay mechanics to ensure that the experience is as smooth and enjoyable as possible. By the end of February, we’ll have a much clearer picture of where we stand and whether we're on track for the targeted release window.

We’re incredibly excited about how Pixelshire is shaping up, and we can’t wait to share more with you soon. Stay tuned for further updates as we approach the final stretch!

Thank you for being part of this journey with us!

Greetings, @everyone! 👋

I wanted to provide a quick update on what's been happening in Pixelshire lately, as things have been moving fast behind the scenes.

We are currently deep into alpha testing, and it's been a whirlwind of bug fixes and system improvements. My apologies for not being as active in the channels lately—alpha testing is keeping the team and me incredibly busy! 😅 We're actively making improvements based on the alpha feedback to ensure the game is in the best shape possible.

In addition, we're working hard on localizing the game into several languages, including English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, and Greek. 🌍 We also plan to add more languages after the release. The languages were selected based on player demographics to ensure we reach the largest portions of our audience.

For those of you who were asking, that's how we determined the languages aside from Greek (which is my native language).

We're also wrapping up some final porting tasks for the Switch and PlayStation versions 🎮 and tackling the required age ratings for each platform.

Now, onto one of the biggest questions we’ve been getting:

When will the game be released? 🕒

The simple answer: once we're satisfied with the alpha feedback. We're targeting a release within 2024. As soon as we feel confident in the state of the game, we'll lock in and announce a specific date.

Regarding the physical Switch version that some of you have been asking about:

This has been postponed by the publisher because the physical version of Switch requires around 6 months to be ready, and we didn’t want to delay all platform releases for that long. Unfortunately, this decision was out of my hands, but I want to be transparent with you all that we tried our best to avoid this delay. The digital versions on Steam, Switch, and PlayStation will still be released much sooner. 🚀

Thank you again for your continued support and patience. 🙏
