Forget hunting for cryptids—it’s time to become one.
Indie developer and publisher Planet 47 Games has officially launched their highly anticipated forest simulator, Bigfoot Life, on the Epic Games Store. For anyone who has ever wondered what it feels like to step into the oversized footprints of North America’s most elusive icon, your chance has finally arrived.
Rather than taking the well-trodden path of a traditional survival shooter, Bigfoot Life flips the script, inviting players into a meditative, third-person simulation where you embody Sasquatch as the unseen guardian of the wilderness.
Step Into the Woods: What Is Bigfoot Life?
At its heart, Bigfoot Life is about experiencing the forest from an entirely new perspective. Instead of rushing to survive, the game encourages players to unwind, explore, and connect with nature at their own pace.
As Bigfoot, you roam dynamic, lush landscapes that change across vibrant day-night cycles and shifting seasons. Whether you are fishing in quiet streams, foraging for mushrooms and berries, or building shelters to rest during harsh winters, the game offers a peaceful, non-linear experience focused on exploration and environmental storytelling.
Key Features to Sink Your Claws Into
- Customise Your Cryptid: Before stepping into the wild, you can custom-design your Bigfoot’s appearance to make the legend your own.
- Play Your Way: Choose from three distinct game modes:
- Normal Mode: A balanced experience with gentle progression and light needs.
- Survival Mode: A slightly tougher challenge featuring resource management and seasonal survival.
- Free Roam Mode: No limits, no objectives—just pure, relaxing exploration.
- Unlock Unique Bigfoot Powers: Level up to acquire abilities like Bigfoot Vision, Speed, Portals, and Strength.
- Heal & Protect Nature: Use Bigfoot Healing to cure injured wildlife and restore balance to the ecosystem.
- Deal with Human Hunters: Avoid curious humans and persistent Bigfoot hunters looking to snap a photo and prove your existence. Outsmart them, steal their gear for bonus points, or choose a peaceful route and attempt to become friends!
- Find Love in the Wild: Meet other Sasquatch in the wilderness, level up, and eventually find and attract a mate to share your forest life.
