Spiritfarer®: Farewell Edition Launches with Exciting New Features and Cozy Dying Experience

January 23, 2026 - The highly anticipated "Spiritfarer®: Farewell Edition" has been officially announced for release this Summer on Steam, the Epic Games Store, Xbox, and Xbox Game Pass. The game, known for its cozy management mechanics, is now accompanied by three major content updates and a brand new, exciting feature. Spiritfarer® is a management game about dying. As ferrymaster to the deceased, players will build a boat to explore the world, care for spirit friends, and release them into the afterlife. The Farewell Edition includes the heartwarming base game, ensuring that fans can experience the full emotional journey. However, the edition also introduces a new dimension to the series. This Summer, players will be able to enjoy a brand new action-roguelike experience designed for up to 33 players. The game features instant-seamless matchmaking, allowing for quick and easy connections. Players can also opt for private lobbies for a more personal experience. The online multiplayer experience is a premium game, not free-to-play, and was created by a specific team formed in 2018 to handle this new online mode. In this action-roguelike mode, players will embody a soul fighting for eternal lives against the "Wrath of God." The combat system is unique, utilizing "sins and virtues" as weapons against a horde of monsters and massive bosses. Cooperation is essential for survival, and the soul can be "forged" between attempts to enhance the journey. While the game has a story and narrative, the focus remains on the player experience and the journey itself. Players are encouraged to show their support by wishing the game on Steam, following on social media, and signing up for the mailing list. The developers are also engaging with the community through the Steam Community Forums and Discord. More details can be found on the official announcement page.
