XSEED Games has announced an agreement with Dutch developers Little Chicken to publish their in-development supernatural life sim “Moonlight Peaks” in North America in 2026.
“We always look for projects that offer our audience diverse new titles with our indie publishing efforts, but this time we’ve found a project that’s much closer to home,” said Kenji Hosoi, Executive Vice President of XSEED Games. “Moonlight Peaks is a supernatural fit given our deep experience with the farming/life sim genre, and we look forward to working with the team at Little Chicken to bring their game to life, and our fans!”
“Moonlight Peaks” is set in a titular town, home to vampires, werewolves, mermaids, and other supernatural denizens who mostly come out at night—where the unnatural is the norm. Players play as a descendent of Count Dracula, who must prove to their skeptical father that an (un-)life of compassion is possible, even for the undead. While players design their perfect vampire lair and learn the art of farming magical crops and witchcraft, they’ll get to know the eclectic mix of human and supernatural residents that also call “Moonlight Peaks” home and maybe even find their eternal love!
“Partnering with Marvelous and their group of companies for a worldwide release was an opportunity we were excited to accept,” said Yannis Bolman, President of Little Chicken Game Company. “As pioneers in the farming and life-sim genre with Story of Seasons and then the Rune Factory series, we were thrilled to be invited into their family. Moonlight Peaks will fit seamlessly into their publishing portfolio, and we hope to introduce fans of those series to our own innovative and unique ideas for the genre.”
More information about the setting and features of “Moonlight Peaks” will be revealed at a later date, but players can download a new demo on PC via Steam for a glimpse at the haunted haven that awaits.
