Aside from the initial reveal, we don’t know much yet about the next Fantasy Life Level 5 entry coming to the Nintendo Switch at some point this year. However, there was a surpris ing revelation about this new entry in the RPG simulation series. Japanese publication Famitsu
Best known for Mega Man and in recent years the Kickstarter project Mighty No. 9 along with the successful Azure Striker Gunvolt series, Inafune is one of the talents behind this upcoming release.
Level-5 CEO and former Fantasy Life producer Akihiro Hino elaborated on this, mentioning that Inafune “has the ability to bring people together” and that he “created not only a new crafting system” with a new creative team at his disposal, but “even went so far as to create a whole new life, too.”
To add some context to that last part, “life” in the original game acted like a class / specialization, where you could develop a skill. In this new chapter you will build your own city on a ruined island. You’ll also travel between the past and present to uncover the mysteries of the island, and popular characters from the series will return.
