Date Everything! Preview

Team17 Digital and Los Angeles developer Sassy Chap Games have released what might be the most unusual dating simulator ever conceived. Date Everything! has launched on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, offering players the chance to pursue romantic relationships with literally any object in existence through the magic of “Dateviator” glasses.

Romance Without Boundaries

Date Everything! takes the dating simulation genre to unprecedented extremes by allowing players to form emotional connections with absolutely anything – from household items like laundry baskets to abstract concepts like air itself. The game’s central premise revolves around special glasses that reveal the hidden personalities within everyday objects, transforming mundane environments into a world of romantic possibilities.

This sandbox approach to dating means players can explore genuine relationships with 100 fully voiced characters, each offering branching dialogue trees that lead to multiple potential endings. The scope of romantic options appears genuinely limitless, limited only by what players can interact with in the game’s 3D overworld.

Hollywood-Level Production Values

Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of Date Everything! is its staggering production scale. The game features over 4 hours of original music, with each dateable character receiving their own unique theme. Visual content includes more than 11,000 hand-drawn images supporting 1.2 million words of dialogue across 70,000 individual voice lines.

The voice cast reads like a who’s who of contemporary gaming and entertainment talent. Notable performers include Felicia Day (Supernatural, Fallout), Ben Starr (Final Fantasy XVI), Critical Role’s Matt Mercer, BAFTA Award winners Laura Bailey (The Last of Us) and Neil Newbon (Baldur’s Gate 3), Troy Baker (Indiana Jones and The Great Circle), and Ashley Burch (Horizon series), among many others.

Interactive World Design

Beyond the dating mechanics, Date Everything! features a fully interactive 3D overworld that dynamically changes based on player choices throughout their romantic journey. This suggests that relationship decisions will have meaningful consequences on the game environment, potentially affecting which objects become available for future romantic encounters.

The game represents an ambitious fusion of dating simulation, voice acting showcase, and interactive fiction, wrapped in a premise that’s simultaneously absurd and oddly compelling. Physical editions are available for those who prefer tangible copies of their comprehensive dating guide.

Date Everything! appears to be pushing the boundaries of what constitutes a dating simulator, offering an experience that’s equal parts genuine romance game and surreal comedy adventure.
