We’ve been following the story of Cattle Country, a cozy pixel art ranch sim from publisher Playtonic Friends. The rootin’ tootin’ cozy cowboy game has been released on PC via Steam, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. Since then, a new update, titled Beneath and Beyond, has been released to bolster the game’s content, add some quality-of-life upgrades, and fix a few bugs. Cattle Country’s new content and upgrade are free to all those who previously purchased, no matter the version.
In a press statement, Playtonic Friends said. “Saddle up and grab your pickaxe, it’s time to head Beneath and Beyond! The latest content update for Cattle Country, the cozy frontier life-sim from Castle Pixel.”
Features in Beneath and Beyond:
