Ikonei Island: An Earthlock Adventure builds on the success of the Earthlock RPGs, taking the rich world-building and magical setting of the franchise into new territory.

Taking inspiration from titles like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley, Ikonei Island: An Earthlock Adventure offers a unique take on the genre, adding to compelling resource gathering and crafting systems with perilous pirate camps, the ability to enlist the unique talents of the island’s wildlife to help you out and many more exciting additions to be announced.

Set on a deserted island, the game tasks players with exploring its diverse and intriguing landscape as they collect resources for crafting and befriend wildlife to employ their unique abilities to progress to new areas of the island. They will discover ancient ruins from a bygone civilization, deal with treasure-hungry pirates, and unlock a host of different biomes, ranging from icy mountains and parched deserts, to dense jungles and humid swamps, as they uncover the secrets the island has to offer.

Norwegian developer Snowcastle and publisher Jagex revealed that Ikonei Island: An Earthlock Adventure will be releasing on November 9th on PC, Xbox and PlayStation, with Switch coming at a later date, at a retail price of $24.99 (£20.99).

The game can also be enjoyed for free with someone that owns the game via the Ikonei Island: Friends’ Pass, launched on Steam today!

From today, Snowcastle have released Ikonei Island: Friends’ Pass, a free version of the game that allows anyone to hop onto the Island and explore the online multiplayer co-op experience with up to three of their friends. Anyone can play alone or together for the first two hours of play! BUT if at least one of you owns the full version, you can play indefinitely!

Gather resources, craft tools, and gear. Farm the land, build your base or a cozy home, and decorate it however you like. You just need to make a 'Ribbit Request' (well a ‘Join’ Code) to be able to join in the same game session together. Plus if your demo runs out, not to worry - after you purchase the base game you can continue where you left off.

Ikonei Island: An Earthlock Adventure is available on Steam Early Access  at $14.99 / €12.49 / £11.39.

Players will also have the opportunity to make the island their own. An upgradable hamlet serves as a base of operations and unique placeable items allow you to customize the island to your liking.

Make fun and unique items to truly make Ikonei Island your own!
