Fae Farm , the cozy co-op farming sim released in 2023 by Phoenix Labs, is going offline. A message posted to the game's Steam page says the game will remain playable offline in singleplayer mode, but "will no longer be playable online and will not receive any future updates." It also appears that developer Phoenix Labs, which laid off " the majority of the studio " in January, is now fully closed and gone for good.
Phoenix Labs said when those layoffs were made that it would provide updates on the future of Fae Farm, and its debut game Dauntless, "in the coming weeks." The studio announced a month later that Dauntless, a Monster Hunter-style game that ultimately fell prey to the actual Monster Hunter , would be closed entirely in May , but there was no further word on Fae Farm until now.
