Independent developer Monoii Studio has announced that Bottled By Bears, a cozy idle management game where players help a family of bears run their honey farm, will launch on Steam on November 11th, 2026. The game will also take part in the upcoming Steam Next Fest, running from October 19th to October 26th.
Open bee packs, discover bees, and watch them work. Rarer bees and shinier variants produce better honey, which sells for more, which means more packs and upgrades. The loop keeps going as your collection and business grow together.
There’s more to it than just the management side. Find every bee in the catalogue, deck out your farm however you like, and watch your flower fields shift and grow based on which bees call your hives home.
The free demo is available on Steam now.
