Harvestella, a Brand-new Life Simulation RPG, Available Now on Nintendo Switch and PC
SQUARE ENIX today released HARVESTELLA, a brand-new life simulation RPG, for Nintendo Switch and STEAM. Featuring concept art by Isamu Kamikokuryo (FINAL FANTASY XII) and music by Go Shiina (Tales series), in HARVESTELLA, players will experience a beautiful world that changes with the flow of the seasons and enjoy a variety of gameplay, including tending to crops, befriending townspeople and adventuring into challenging dungeons.
HARVESTELLA is set in a vibrant and colourful world where four giant crystals called "Seaslight" create a stable change between the four seasons. The adventure begins as abnormalities in the Seaslight begin to appear, creating the "Quietus," a season of death that takes place between the naturally occurring four seasons. During the Quietus the crops wither and people cannot venture outside, and troublingly, these seasons are mysteriously growing longer with each year.
In this life simulation RPG, players will grow and tend to crops, use ingredients to cook and craft items, and venture into the overworld, which vibrantly changes based on the season, to visit different towns, interact with townsfolk, go fishing and more. Players can select from various Jobs, such as Fighter, Shadow Walker, and Mage, and venture into dungeons with their party to discover the origins of the world as well as the truth behind the calamity along the way.
HARVESTELLA is now available digitally for Nintendo Switch and PC via STEAM. A physical edition for Nintendo Switch is also available, in addition to a free downloadable demo for Nintendo Switch.

Also, what the lad said:
Something to do with weird Japanese-ownership over the name, but the USA company holding the name Harvest Moon, and those two not getting along very well for the last 20 years.
Also, Stardew Valley happened, lol. As did Rune Factory.
Even though it's fair to say game plots can overlap others at times this goes beyond simply "Borrowing" things/ideas from another.
I will be honest here, I never played Harvest Moon or ever saw it being played but if what you guys are saying is accurate then instead, it's taking a gaming concept, spinning it around in a different direction with a different coat of paint brushed on to dress it up as something different when it's not (So much).

So worth it!
/s off.
Someone remind them that games are supposed to be exciting.
$60 Sounds great!
Animal Crossing is one of the most well known games on the planet.
I find war based strategy games relaxing. So much so that I play them before bedtime.
Grass works...is awesome :laugh:
I still play the game quite often to try and get through to the secret ending at the Chrystler tower to never actually end up doing it.
I am scared for the remake.
