Think about me mildly intrigued

Ever because the Harvest Moon franchise was forcibly uncoupled from the Bokujō Monogatari franchise from Marvelous, it’s had hassle discovering its footing within the surprisingly aggressive farm sim style. Harvest Moon: The Misplaced Valley and Harvest Moon: Skytree Village tried to combine the standard crop-raising gameplay with a Minecraft-inspired voxel world. The outcomes had been lower than stellar. Harvest Moon: Mild of Hope revisited the top-down really feel of the unique sport with blended outcomes, and the much less mentioned about Harvest Moon: One World, the higher. Whereas I contend Harvest Moon: Mad Sprint is a pleasant gem, it’s clear this sequence wants to show issues round. It might be able to try this this summer time with Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos.

Introduced late final yr, The Winds of Anthos takes place within the land of Anthos, the place years prior, a volcanic eruption separated the villages of this land. The folks of the world had been saved by the Harvest Goddess, who solid a magic key into the ocean with the final of that energy. It’s unknown what that key will unlock, however what we do know is that, visually, that is shaping as much as be the best-looking Harvest Moon since Natsume needed to go its personal approach.

A take a look at the New Harvest Moon

Natsume began sharing screens of the sport in March over on its social media pages. Whereas we’re nonetheless ready for a correct trailer to present us a take a look at the sport in motion, these screens are respectable sufficient for me to not write the entire sport off proper now. After all, it’ll have some competitors when it launches as we’re additionally getting a remaster of Story of Seasons: A Great Life this summer time.

We’ll discover out if this would be the Harvest Moon to interrupt the sequence out of its droop when Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos launches later this yr for Nintendo Change, PS5, PS4, Xbox Collection X|S, Xbox One, and PC.
