UK publisher Merge Games (@MergeGamesLtd) announced a new deal with indie developer RainyGames to publish their upcoming narrative-driven farming and life sim, SunnySide for PC. Xbox Series S / X, PlayStation 4 & 5 and Nintendo Switch arrive in 2022. A new gameplay trailer for SunnySide showcasing never-before seen gameplay content and new inventory UI will be released at GDC.
Announced in 2021, SunnySide is the highly anticipated open world farming JRPG with deep social sim aspects. Players will be challenged to bridge the gap between traditional practices and modern influences as they find harmony in the Japanese countryside. As they cultivate new experiences and build a thriving homestead, they must also let their relationships with locals blossom.
‘We are excited to be partnering with the talented team at RainyGames to publish SunnySide for PC and consoles’. Commented Callum Ayers, Product Manager at Merge Games. `We were instantly drawn to this charming and unique farming sim and knew that this would be a perfect title for our fans and fits perfectly with our portfolio of engaging titles for 2022’.
‘Here at RainyGames, we couldn’t be more excited to be working with Merge’. Commented Sydney Stockdale, Co-Founder and Producer at RainyGames. ‘They bring an incredible amount of industry knowledge and experience to the table! But beyond that, on a personal level, they have been an absolute joy to work with. Merge has been so supportive of our goals and vision for SunnySide, and that kind of support is a huge blessing. We’re really excited to see what the future will bring!’
Merge Games and Rainy Games have also confirmed today they will be in San Francisco during GDC from 21 - 24 March at the Intercontinental Hotel where they will have the first hands on code for SunnySide available to play.
