Stardew Valley Meets Zoo Tycoon In New RPG We Need Immediately

Fans of Stardew Valley who are eager to lean more into the animal management side of things can look forward to one upcoming release which combines the cosy vibes of Stardew with RPG elements.

Developed by Pixel Puffs and expected to launch in quarter one of 2026, Pawsome Resort is a cosy life sim with co-op elements.

Players will be in charge of managing an animal hotel in a gorgeous pixel-art village.

It is here that you will need to design your resort, care for animals, grow crops, craft furniture and much-needed items, complete quests, and of course, bond with your fellow villagers.

This farming sim with RPG elements is guaranteed to offer a cosy experience with some minor challenges which will be reminiscent of titles such as Stardew Valley and Zoo Tycoon.

Pawsome Resort takes place in Pebble Town and it is here that players will learn that every guest is unique and that includes everything from cats to crocodiles.

Play alone or with up to 2-friends as you work together to care for animals, build your resort and gradually increase your lot to cater for all of the animal friends you will make along the way.

However, it will not be long before you discover that some strange events are plaguing the village and it will be up to you to uncover the truth. By completing quests and meeting mysterious characters, it will not be long before you are able to bring back harmony to the quiet village.

Pawsome Resort has not yet received a full release date but it will be heading into early access as early as the start of 2025 so if you are eager for an animal-management sim that is reminiscent of Stardew Valley, this will be the one for you.

So get ready to head to the pixel-art village of Pebble Town and care for everything from fluffy cats to towering giraffes in Pawsome Resort.
