We Happy Few is an action-adventure game set in a retro-futuristic British town where inhabitants are compelled to take a happiness-inducing drug. Released in 2018, the game blends exploration, crafting, and combat across multiple character perspectives as players navigate a society obsessed with enforced cheerfulness.
Recent news confirms that developer Compulsion Games has retained ownership of the title following its split from Xbox. The studio expressed appreciation for its time under Xbox's banner and its ability to reach global audiences during that partnership. This change in rights doesn't appear to have affected the game's availability on its original platforms.
