Netflix is venturing into the realm of MMOs with their latest announcement at GDC 2025: *Spirit Crossing*. Developed by Spry Fox, the creators of beloved titles like *Cozy Grove* and *Cozy Grove: Camp Spirit*, this new cozy life-sim promises to deliver a serene gaming experience filled with warm pastel visuals, calming melodies, and an emphasis on fostering connections rather than competition.
In *Spirit Crossing*, players can explore a vast world, build and personalize homes, and collaborate to cultivate a thriving village. The game encourages community spirit with activities such as resource gathering, riding fluffy creatures, joining dance parties, and simply enjoying time with friends.
The visual style of *Spirit Crossing* draws inspiration from Studio Ghibli, French comics, and even elements of modern art like Corporate Memphis. This unique blend aims to create an environment that feels timeless and inviting, a place where players might choose to stay for years.
One of the standout features is the in-game calendar system that influences the game's progression. For instance, planting a tree won’t result in an instant orchard; players will have to wait three to six real-world months before they can harvest their bounty. This slow-paced, long-term design echoes the thoughtful approach Spry Fox took with *Cozy Grove*.
At the heart of *Spirit Crossing* is the focus on meaningful connections. Spry Fox’s studio co-founder, David Edery, has expressed his desire for the game to be a space that fosters friendships and turns strangers into companions.
Netflix recently released a captivating trailer for *Spirit Crossing*, which you can watch below to get a sense of the game’s enchanting atmosphere.
Currently, Netflix and Spry Fox are offering an opportunity to participate in the closed alpha test for *Spirit Crossing*. If you’re eager to get an early look, you can sign up on the official closed alpha test page.
The game is set to launch later this year. In the meantime, stay tuned for more exciting news, including our next feature on *The Great Sneeze*, which transforms classic art into a playful puzzle adventure and is available now.
