Bug Fables Gets an Update for Its 5th Anniversary

It’s been almost 4 years since I played Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling, and 5 since the game came out.

I found Bug Fables to be an excellent game that satisfied my craving for a classic Paper Mario game while still having an identity of its own. There’s still no sign of a sequel, but I have my fingers crossed.

But even if there’s no sequel, that doesn’t mean there’s no news. For its fifth anniversary, the game got a surprise update!

(I’ll admit, when they teased news coming yesterday, I had hoped for a sequel announcement, but this is still exciting.)

The 5th anniversary v1.2 update adds a fishing mini-game, a new post-game boss fight, a medal that lets allied characters support you, 11 other new medals, new items, a new music track, and some quality-of-life improvements.

It’s wonderful to see Bug Fables being supported even five years after launch, and it increases my hopes that we’ll see more from this universe someday. The additions aren’t enough to make me replay the game just yet, but it sounds like Bug Fables will be an even better experience for new players now.

Bug Fables is available on Steam, Switch, PS4, and Xbox One (all digital-only, although there was also a Limited Run Games physical release for the Switch), so if you’ve been hoping for another game in the style of Paper Mario, this looks like the best time to give Bug Fables a try!

What do you think of the new Bug Fables update?
