Bzzzz! Always wanted to buzz around like a busy bee? Well, now you can as this colony has a new lease of life. Bee Simulator: The Hive is out now on on Xbox, PlayStation and Switch – and PC too of course.
If you’re wondering how this is news, considering that Bee Simulator actually released back in 2019, don’t worry – you’ve not gone mad. Per the developers: “Bee Simulator: The Hive combines the original Bee Simulator game released in November 2019, with a hefty expansion named The Hive. The Hive adds new content and mechanics into the base game and endgame to create a fresh new experience for those who have never tried the original game. The main highlight of The Hive lets players build and customize their very own sprawling bee hive colony. You’ll be zipping around the map gathering resources, setting up outposts, and unlocking various buildings to start creating and customizing your very own home for you and your colony.
