Fantasy Life i: The Woman Who Steals Time – the sequel to developer Degree 5’s 2012 Nintendo DS life sim and RPG factor – is getting a bunch of free DLC, which we already knew. What we weren’t beforehand conscious of, nevertheless, is that its DLC will embody an open-world roguelike mode.
It is not fully clear why a comparatively laidback, job-focused life sim RPG would need to get in on the roguelike motion, however that is what Degree 5 goes for. As detailed in its announcement weblog, the replace – which is at present “actively underway” – will characteristic an “advanced model of Ginormosia, together with a system mixing roguelike and open-world components”.
Degree 5’s announcement stops wanting explaining how the brand new mode will truly work, but it surely does say the replace will embody “participating content material for each skilled gamers and newcomers alike.” Moreover, the replace guarantees “highly effective new gear”, plus “fashionable gear, mounts, and a wide range of uncommon objects.” A phone manufactured from butts instantly springs to thoughts, however I think I am prone to be disillusioned.

And we’re not fairly completed but. Fantasy Life i’s free DLC replace may even embody a brand-new character who’ll “depart a major mark on the world”, plus new hairstyles and new emotes to “make it much more satisfying for gamers to specific themselves in-game”. As for when all this can present up, Degree 5 says “as quickly as potential”.
“Degree 5 appreciates everybody’s continued assist and stays dedicated to constantly refining Fantasy Life i: The Woman Who Steals Time,” it concludes in its announcement put up, “in addition to increasing content material to supply the very best gaming expertise.”
Why all this free DLC? That’ll be right down to Fantasy Life i’s spectacular gross sales, with the sport having already shifted 1m copies since its launch on the finish of Might. Degree 5 can also be celebrating the milestone with a “commemorative present code” that’ll unlock an “unique piece of apparatus”, plus a “commemorative Pegasus mount” – though its put up profusely apologises for mistakenly giving gamers on sure platforms a unicorn as an alternative. That error ought to now be fastened, alas.
And if you would like to bump that gross sales quantity as much as 1m and one, Fantasy Life i: The Woman Who Steals Time is offered now on Steam, Xbox Collection X/S, PlayStation 5, Change, and Change 2.
