Coral Island is a re-imagined farm sim game inspired by classics, where you grow crops, nurture animals, and befriend the islanders.

You're finally leaving Pokyo behind and moving to Coral Island

Decide whether to revitalize not only the town, but also the surrounding coral reefs. It may get tough, but stick with it, because the island is ripe for change.

Grow crops, nurture animals, and befriend the islanders. Experience a tropical island rich and teeming with nature!

It's time to leave big-city life in Pokyo behind and start a new chapter of your life on Coral Island! Be who you want and create the idyllic farm of your dreams, where you'll tend crops, nurture animals, and build a bond with the natural world around you. Help revitalize the nearby town and its surrounding coral reefs, and forge relationships with a vibrant community of more than 50 fellow people who call Coral Island home. Farm. Decorate. Craft. Explore. Relax. Your future—and the future of Coral Island—is what you make of it.

Coral Island is available via Steam Early Access and is also available for Game Preview on Windows 10/11 and on PC Game Pass.

  • Write your own story: On Coral Island, the story changes with each passing season, but life just goes with the flow.

  • Catch of the day: Island living has a lot of perks, including being just a stone's throw away from fun activities like hunting for insects and catching fish.
  • Dive the ocean & mine the caverns: Go diving to restore the coral reef, or mine precious gemstones in the cavern. Whatever you decide to do, you’ll find loot to hone your tools and upgrade the quality of your livestock and crops.
