Sea Fantasy Release Date Announced for Nintendo Switch: Metasla’s Pixel RPG Launches June 19, 2025

Metasla, the indie developer known for their distinct pixel art and inventive gameplay, has officially announced that Sea Fantasy, their upcoming open-world action RPG, will launch on the Nintendo Switch on June 19, 2025.

The game will be available digitally via the Nintendo eShop, marking its anticipated debut on Nintendo’s flagship hybrid console. Sea Fantasy invites players into a vibrant, pixel-crafted world driven by unique fishing mechanics and RPG elements.

The core narrative follows two protagonists, Rod and Axel, as they embark on a quest to capture marine creatures known as Sea’Az.

The game challenges players with creative fishing sequences, open-world exploration, and co-operative gameplay elements that set it apart from traditional RPG titles on the Nintendo Switch platform. Gameplay Overview and Key Features Sea Fantasy’s central mechanic combines real-time action with fishing gameplay, tasking players with catching Sea’Az through a “Gauge Action” system.

Success hinges on stopping a bar within a designated “Hit Area” or, for critical catches, the “Critical Area,” inflicting damage to the target creature.

Players must deplete their opponents’ HP by precisely timing their actions, while more formidable Sea’Az introduce unique gauge-based challenges for increased difficulty. Resource collection and crafting play a significant role in player progression.

By harvesting materials from defeated Sea’Az, players can craft and upgrade vital equipment—including fishing rods and hooks—offering both customization and tactical depth to the fishing action.

The dual-character dynamic between Rod and Axel allows players to delegate fishing duties, material stripping, and obstacle removal, building a cooperative rhythm throughout the adventure. The expansive in-game world is navigated by boat, enabling players to freely explore diverse environments rendered in detailed 2D pixel art.

In addition to fishing and exploration, Sea Fantasy incorporates a variety of action-driven scenarios and boss battles, ensuring a dynamic gameplay experience that blends adventure and skill. Commenting on the upcoming Switch release, a spokesperson for Metasla stated that bringing Sea Fantasy to Nintendo’s platform will allow even more players to experience the studio’s signature blend of creativity and challenge, tailored especially for fans of indie RPGs and pixel art design. Release Details and Availability Sea Fantasy is scheduled for release on June 19, 2025, exclusively on the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo eShop.

This strategic launch places the game among the top summer releases for the platform, solidifying Metasla’s emergence as a noteworthy developer in the indie game community.
