The Cozy Grove sequel first launched on mobile in June 2024, and its wider release is now set for mid-July. Spry Fox is handling the console and PC launch itself after its time under Netflix Games, which also sold the studio back to its founders in late 2025.

Why it matters

This expands a previously mobile-only game to the major console and PC platforms, which can broaden its audience and give existing fans a bigger-screen version. It also shows Spry Fox taking back direct publishing control for this release.

A cute game about ghost bears is leaving phones and coming to big game systems and computers on July 15. It is like a tiny storybook garden getting a bigger house so more people can visit.

Analysis

A wider release for the sequel

Spry Fox says Cozy Grove: Camp Spirit will arrive on Steam, the Epic Games Store, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and Switch 2 on July 15. The game first came to iOS and Android in June 2024, and the new launch answers the long-running demand for a version on bigger screens.

What the game is

Camp Spirit is a life sim built around helping ghost bears remember their pasts and move on. Players are stranded on an island after a bus crash, repair a broken vehicle over time, and work toward reuniting with a lost scout troop. The article says the game also includes asynchronous gift-giving for friends, new companions and events, and a new powerwashing activity that was not in the original Cozy Grove.

Who is publishing it

Spry Fox is publishing the console and PC versions itself. That follows a short period under Netflix Games from 2022 to 2025: Netflix bought Spry Fox in 2022, published Camp Spirit on mobile in 2024, and then sold the studio back to founders David Edery and Daniel Cook in December 2025 during a broader Netflix Games restructuring. The article also notes that Spry Fox began work on another life sim, Spirit Crossing, while under Netflix, and Netflix is still publishing that game on iOS and Android.

The story is mainly a release-date announcement, but it also marks a shift in how Spry Fox is handling distribution across platforms.

Key points

  • Spry Fox will release Cozy Grove: Camp Spirit on July 15 across Steam, Epic, PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch platforms.
  • The game first launched on iOS and Android in June 2024.
  • Camp Spirit is a sequel about helping ghost bears remember their pasts and moving on.
  • The release includes asynchronous gift-giving, new companions and events, and a new powerwashing activity.
  • Spry Fox is publishing the console and PC versions itself after its Netflix ownership ended in late 2025.
The Upside

If the rollout goes well, the game could reach many more players than it did on mobile alone. The bigger-screen versions may also make the social and cozy parts of the game easier to enjoy for fans who waited for console and PC support.

The Downside

The bigger launch could still be limited by how much interest the game gets outside its existing mobile audience. Releasing on many platforms at once also raises the bar for polish and compatibility across older and newer systems.
