LEVEL5 Inc. are releasing FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time today and the good news is that it's Steam Deck Verified. So it will work great on Desktop Linux and other SteamOS systems. The game does have Easy Anti-Cheat, which they've clearly enabled and so it's listed on our anti-cheat page.

What is it? A curious mixture of elements from the likes of Animal Crossing and Zelda, an action-adventure RPG wrapped up in a very cosy style with solo and online co-op play (supports Steam Remote Play Together) with an open-world setting. Their "Life" system sounds interesting, with 14 different jobs available in the game that you can switch between any time, with each having their own progression.

You can get an overview of the features in their previous video below:

For people who have played it during Advanced Access, a nice change to the multiplayer is being made with today's update to it so that "progress can be made on accepted quests even during multiplayer sessions" which was a pretty big oversight.

Looks like an incredibly sweet RPG, with the pre-release Steam user reviews already giving it a "Very Positive" rating.

FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time | Release Date: 21st May 2025

It's too bad the Co-op has such bad reviews otherwise this would actually look pretty good.

Made me think of the cancelled Level-5 OG Xbox game True Fantasy Live Online for some reason. I was hyped about that one back in the day: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_Fantasy_Live_Online
