Story of Seasons, for the uninitiated, is what fans in the West used to know as the Harvest Moon series. While Harvest Moon continues on under the guidance of Natsume outside of Japan, the original series dubbed Bokujō Monogatari in that region chugs along here as Story of Seasons. Still developed by Marvelous Entertainment, the latest entry in the franchise has been revealed as Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town!
Here’s what Marvelous has to say about the game:
The long-awaited brand new entry in the original farm/life simulation franchise, known in Japan as Bokujo Monogatari, makes its debut on Nintendo Switch, bringing players more freedom than ever before to shape an untamed wilderness and customize their farm down to the very tile. A new cast of marriage candidates, a town that grows and thrives along with your farm, and a request system highlight the new features, all while retaining the core elements of the STORY OF SEASONS series. Finding Earth Sprites while exploring your farmland may lead you to mysterious, fantastical lands such as gardens where the seasons never change, an island in the sky, or even the inside of a volcano!
Pioneers of Olive Town is set to grant players more freedom than ever as they cultivate their farms and seek out new spouses. The game will launch on 03.23.21 and will also come in physical form for those who love to have actual cartridges in their collections.
