Thunder Lotus’ Spiritfarer was one of the best surprises of 2020, and with its unique premise (the developers describe it as a “cozy management game about dying”), it managed to deliver one of the most enjoyable and moving gaming experiences of the year. Thankfully, the praise that it has received has also been reflected in commercial success.
Thunder Lotus has announced that Spiritfarer has now sold over 1 million copies worldwide across all platforms. At last count, the game’s sales had crossed 500,000 units in April of this year.
Fittingly, this announcement also goes hand-in-hand with the launch of Spiritfarer: Farewell Edition. Essentially, the subtitle has been bolted onto the game, because it has now received its final free content update. Called the Jackie and Daria Update, it adds two new spirits, a new event, a new location, and new boat buildings and resources.
“All good things must come to an end. And Spiritfarer has been especially good for Thunder Lotus,” said creative director Nicolas Guérin. “For our work to be welcomed into the lives of so many people is especially gratifying, particularly given how much heart we tried to invest in the game. It was a challenging project, but telling these stories truly helped us grow as developers. We’d like to offer our heartfelt thanks to all our fans for their support and for helping us reach this special milestone!”
Spiritfarer is available on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, and Stadia.
