Having honed the basics and built out the features, it’s time for the Stairway Games team to allow players the chance to make a new life for themselves on Coral Island. And they’ll be able to do that through Game Pass, Xbox, PlayStation or PC.
Available right now as a full V1.0 release is Coral Island. It comes on the back of a decent amount of time in Early Access and Game Preview to launch in full. Whether you pick it up as part of your Game Pass subscription, or prefer to open the wallet, it matters little – just head to Coral Island now.
Breaking out of Early Access
The coziest of cozy games, Coral Island transports you to a wonderful new world. This is one in which you’ll get to farm, to decorate, to craft and to explore. All in hope of being able to eventually kick back and relax, fulfilling your future. This is a place where dreams come true.
Anyone familiar with the plethora of cozy games, life sims or the like of recent times will know what to expect here. Perhaps if you’ve spent hours with My Time at Sandrock over the last few weeks and are looking for a new draw, Coral Island may well provide it.
There’s certainly much going on in Coral Island. With more than fifty fellow folk making up a vibrant little community, we can see us wanting to get in on the key features sooner rather than later…
Key features
- Build your dream farm – Transform your overrun land on Coral Island into a lush and lively dreamscape—you decide what to build, what crops to grow, and which animals you’d like to tend.
- Write your own story – On Coral Island, the story changes with each passing season, but life just goes with the flow. Spend your days exploring, or find that special someone in town to build a life together. Save the seas, brave monster-filled caverns, or focus on perfecting your farm. It’s all up to you.

- Catch of the day – Island living has a lot of perks, including being just a stone’s throw away from fun activities like hunting for insects and catching fish.
