Netflix Unveils First MMO: Spirit Crossing Launching Soon

Netflix is venturing into the MMO genre with their new release, *Spirit Crossing*. Developed by Spry Fox, the game was unveiled at GDC 2025. If you're a fan of Spry Fox's previous titles such as *Cozy Grove* and *Cozy Grove: Camp Spirit*, you can anticipate a similar experience with enchanting pastel visuals, calming melodies, and a strong emphasis on fostering connections rather than competition.

Here's What We Know About Netflix's Spirit Crossing

*Spirit Crossing* invites players to immerse themselves in a vast world where they can build and decorate homes, and cultivate a bustling village alongside others. Activities include gathering resources, riding on adorable fluffy creatures, joining in on dance parties, and simply enjoying the company of friends.

The game's visual style draws inspiration from Studio Ghibli, French comics, and even incorporates elements of modern art like Corporate Memphis. This blend aims to create a timeless and comforting atmosphere, encouraging players to settle in and enjoy the game for years to come.

A distinctive feature of *Spirit Crossing* is its in-game calendar system, which influences progression. For instance, planting trees requires patience, as they take three to six real-world months to mature into a harvestable orchard. This slow-paced design is a hallmark of Spry Fox's approach, previously seen in *Cozy Grove*.

The core of *Spirit Crossing* lies in building meaningful connections, a principle deeply ingrained in Spry Fox's design philosophy. Co-founder David Edery has expressed his vision of the game as a space where strangers can become friends.

Netflix has released a trailer for *Spirit Crossing*, showcasing its charming and enchanting world. Why not take a moment to watch it?

Netflix and Spry Fox are currently inviting players to participate in a closed alpha test for *Spirit Crossing*. If you're eager to experience the game early, you can sign up through the official closed alpha test page.

*Spirit Crossing* is set to launch later this year. In the meantime, don't miss our next feature on *The Great Sneeze*, which transforms classic art into a playful puzzle adventure, available now.
