Story of Seasons

Released: 3/31/2015

STORY OF SEASONS is the beginning of a new chapter in the 'Bokujo Monogatari' series, a long-standing and top-selling farming/life simulation franchise. Though the series is reborn with a new name, it continues the well-loved traditions of customizable farms, animal care, marriage and child-rearing. After creating a customized character, players can live out a new life by cultivating their favorite fruits and vegetables while expanding and filling their farm with their choice of animals. Fans of past games in the series will love the many new additions on display here, including an enhanced variety of seeds, pets, and other ways to make their farms truly their own. But the major addition is the new theme of 'connectivity,' as trading with other countries will help grow the player's crop variety and wallet, as well as the prosperity of the entire town. Players can also connect locally via Wi-Fi to visit one another's farms and tend crops as a team, expanding both their harvests and their friendships.
