Finn Brice, CEO of Chucklefish (publishers of Stardew Valley) has posted a tweet that teases the company's next home-grown title:
Not much is known about the title as of yet, although Brice has alluded to an upcoming project in the past which he characterised as being "Stardew Valley meets Harry Potter". It's important to note that by "Harry Potter", he's referring to the idea of witches and wizards attending a magical school, rather than indicating any formal crossover between the two franchises (although yes please let's go).
Previous tweets have seemed to have hint at a game called Spellbound, and the presence of those witches in what definitely resembles a cutesy life-sim world could point to this being the same project.
Responding to users on Twitter, Brice clarified that there there will be "no formal announcement" for a while; he also retweeted a user who had retweeted the image with the caption "Little Stardew Academia", indicating that comparisons with the popular Little Witch Academia franchise may be appropriate.
In the meantime, Chucklefish is hard at work preparing Stardew Valley for the Nintendo Switch; no release date has yet been announced but the port is expected to arrive later this year, with online multiplayer coming to the farming sim sometime in early 2018. Stardew Valley is available right now for PC, PS4 and Xbox One, and we love it.
