Overview
Pocket Beasts is a creature-collecting idle strategy RPG from RPG Lover Studio, drawing its bestiary from the mythology of the Classic of Mountains and Seas (Shanhaijing). You tame mythical beasts, assemble a team, and let them fight on your behalf — including while you are offline. It launched on Steam on November 13, 2026, with English, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese support.
Highlights
- Over 100 collectible pets spread across nine races and every rarity tier, from Common up to the radiant Celestial.
- Synergies matter: more than 30 bond effects let you pair beasts by element, lineage, or divine grouping for team-wide bonuses.
- Hatch, evolve, and reincarnate your favorites, then let the auto battler handle the fighting even when you step away.
The loop leans on team-building rather than moment-to-moment input. Because the roster spans nine races and multiple rarity tiers, the interesting decisions come from how you combine creatures — matching elements or divine groupings to trigger the bond effects that shape your squad's performance.
Evolution and reincarnation give long-term goals for the pets you keep, while the idle layer means progress continues between sessions.
Who It's For
This one suits players who enjoy collection-driven progression and tinkering with team compositions more than fast reflexes. Fans of creature collectors and idle RPGs will find a familiar rhythm, and the Shanhaijing theme gives the roster a distinct mythological flavor. It offers single-player and multiplayer categories, plus asynchronous multiplayer and turn-based tactics tags, so there is room for comparing builds with others.
