White Owls Inc. and Playism have announced that The Good Life, the next game from Deadly Premonition creator SWERY, will be available on Xbox Game Pass from launch.
The Good Life, which will release on October 15, is a "debt-repayment RPG" that lets you experience a slice of life in the small British town of Rainy Woods. It will launch on Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and Steam, as well as on the Game Pass subscription service.
If you're curious as to what weird and wonderful things Hidetaka “SWERY” Suehiro and his team has dreamed up for The Good Life, a demo is available right now on Xbox One. PC players will be able to play this demo when it arrives on Steam as part of the Steam Next Festival, which begins October 1.
That demo will give you a first taste of a game in which you play Naomi, a photographer from New York who's arrived in Rainy Woods to discover the truth behind the "happiest town in the world". Unravelling that mystery requires cooking, eating, sleeping, shopping, farming, taking photos, and other "unconventional quests". You can also play as a human, cat, or dog, which is not what you'd usually expect of a mystery game.
The Good Life was announced back in 2017 and was crowd funded, albeit suffering initial setbacks after the first round of funding failed. Back in 2018 The Good Life was listed as coming to Xbox Game Pass in that November, but the release never happened. Finally, though, it looks like The Good Life is about to make it's debut on October 15.
