Dangen Entertainment and Moonsprout Games have just dropped an unexpected update for Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling in honor of the game’s fifth anniversary. This update brings the game to version 1.2 and is available across all platforms, including PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. With this update, players can dive into a rich array of new content designed to enhance the post-story experience.
Bug Fables, which made its debut back in 2019, is a charming indie RPG heavily inspired by Nintendo’s Paper Mario series, particularly drawing from the original N64 game and its beloved follow-up, The Thousand-Year Door. Players step into the shoes of Vi, Kabbu, and Leif, a trio of bugs on a quest across Bugaria to uncover the Everlasting Sapling, meeting an intriguing cast of characters along the way. The game received acclaim for its engaging characters, strategic combat, and especially its post-game offerings. Initially released on the Nintendo Switch, Bug Fables eventually made its way to PC and PlayStation a year later. Now, five years on, dedicated fans and newcomers alike have even more content to explore.
In version 1.2 of Bug Fables, a wealth of features is introduced, notably enriching post-game content, including a slew of powerful new bosses. Players will also uncover 11 fresh medals, each bringing a unique twist to gameplay strategy.
The update spices things up by adding a fishing mechanic, allowing players to reel in various worms from the local lake. These catches are neatly logged in a new compendium. On top of that, players can recruit allies to fight by their side, enhancing strategic gameplay. The update even throws in a brand-new music track to accompany players on their bug-sized adventures.
Quality-of-life improvements are also on the list, such as tweaking Vi’s Beemerang to better control angles during combat, locking them to the nearest eight cardinal points. The developers expressed their gratitude towards the dedicated Bug Fables community for their support over the past five years. This update offers long-time fans a fantastic reason to revisit the whimsical world, while also providing the perfect opportunity for new players to jump in.
