"Into a Hearth Yonder: PC Release Announced"

Developer Sway State Games has unveiled an exciting new project, *Into a Hearth Yonder*, a cozy creature-collecting MMO-lite designed for PC, slated for release next year. This game promises to enchant players with its vibrant, colorful art style, setting the stage for an immersive experience in the world of Viteria.

Whether playing solo or teaming up with friends, players will embark on adventures across Viteria, accompanied by a delightful array of automata. These charming, Tamagotchi-like companions not only add joy to your journey but also enhance your gameplay by boosting various activities such as combat, farming, fishing, mining, and crafting. "We thought it would be fun to embody player stats and skills as cute, Tamagotchi-like automata," said Chris O'Kelly, the studio head at Sway State. "You take joy in collecting and caring for them, and in return, they enhance your exploration of Viteria, improve your quality of life, and empower you to lean fully into your favorite playstyle."
