It may not be dropping until 2025, but Winter Burrow has today been revealed as a cozy little woodland survival game about a big-city mouse heading home. And it’s coming to Game Pass.
Developer Pine Creek Games and publisher Noodlecake have revealed Winter Burrow during the Xbox Games Showcase. This is a cosy woodland survival game that focuses efforts on a big-city mouse returning home. Why? Well, so they can fix up their childhood burrow.
Coming to Xbox, Game Pass and Steam in early 2025, in Winter Burrow you’ll be found exploring, gathering and crafting, much like you would do in the plethora of other survival games on the market. But how many let you do it as a little mouse, intent on creating warm sweaters, baking pies and meeting the locals!
Key features
