Saddle up, cozy game fans. Cattle Country is almost here. Playtonic Friends and Castle Pixel have announced that their charming Wild West life sim will launch on May 27, 2025, for Nintendo Switch.
If you’ve ever dreamed of settling into frontier life with just the right mix of homesteading and wholesome adventure, Cattle Country promises the full ranch experience. Build your homestead, tend to animals, and get to know your fellow pioneers as you explore the sun-soaked prairies of the Old West. Whether you’re in it for the laid-back vibes or the pixel-perfect charm, this is one to watch. You can play the Cattle Country demo on Switch ahead of launch, and maybe even start practising your best cowboy hat tip in the meantime.
From the Press Release:
Inspired by classic Western adventures and blended with wholesome farming charm, this demo has been lovingly fine-tuned with help from our amazing community. Enjoy refined gameplay, expanded customisation, and exciting new features – plus a special appearance by cowboy voice acting legend Roger Clark (Arthur Morgan, Red Dead Redemption 2) as your trusty friend back home.
