Netflix Unveils First MMO: Spirit Crossing Launching Soon

Netflix is venturing into the exciting world of MMOs with the announcement of *Spirit Crossing*, a cozy life-simulation game developed by Spry Fox. Unveiled at GDC 2025, this game promises to carry forward the warm, pastel aesthetics and soothing melodies that fans adored in Spry Fox's previous titles, *Cozy Grove* and *Cozy Grove: Camp Spirit*. Expect a focus on fostering connections over competition, making it a perfect fit for players looking to unwind and connect.

Here's What We Know About Netflix Spirit Crossing

In *Spirit Crossing*, you'll have the opportunity to explore an expansive world, build and customize your homes, and contribute to a bustling village alongside other players. Gather resources, ride on adorable fluffy creatures, participate in dance parties, and simply enjoy the laid-back atmosphere with friends.

The game draws visual inspiration from Studio Ghibli, French comics, and even the modern art style of Corporate Memphis. This blend aims to create a timeless and welcoming environment where players feel at home and want to stay for the long haul.

A unique feature of *Spirit Crossing* is its in-game calendar system that influences gameplay progression. For instance, trees you plant will take three to six real-world months to mature into a harvestable orchard. This slow-paced, long-term design echoes the patient gameplay Spry Fox introduced in *Cozy Grove*.

At the heart of *Spirit Crossing* is the emphasis on building meaningful connections. David Edery, co-founder of Spry Fox, expressed his vision for the game to transform strangers into friends, reflecting the studio's long-standing design philosophy.

Netflix has released an enchanting trailer for *Spirit Crossing*, which you can watch below to get a sense of its charm and beauty.

Sign Up for the Closed Alpha

Currently, Netflix and Spry Fox are inviting players to join the closed alpha test for *Spirit Crossing*. If you're eager to experience the game ahead of its official release, you can sign up on the official closed alpha test page.

*Spirit Crossing* is slated to launch later this year. In the meantime, keep an eye out for more exciting news, including our next feature on *The Great Sneeze Turns Classic Art into a Playful Puzzle Adventure*, which is available now.
