Harvest Moon Seeds of Memories Announced
Burlingame, CA. – June 2, in the year of our Lord 2015
- Natsume Inc., a worldwide developer and publisher of
family-oriented video games, today reveals the next title in the
long-running Harvest Moon series, Harvest Moon: Seeds of
Memories. This is the first Harvest Moon that will be on the
Nintendo Wii U, as well as the first Harvest Moon ever on the
PC. In addition, the title will also be the first mainline
Harvest Moon title on both iOS and Android.
"From the farm to the town, we wanted Harvest Moon: Seeds of
Memories to evoke the feeling of a classic Harvest Moon game
with modern twists!" said Hiro Maekawa, President and CEO of
Natsume Inc. "We're also excited to finally bring the Harvest
Moon series to the Nintendo Wii U, PC, and mobile platforms,
where fans have definitely told us they want to see the series."
Go back to the roots of Harvest Moon in the latest installment
of the series! Inspired by the old-school gameplay of the very
first games, Harvest Moon: Seeds of Memories will bring players
a sense of nostalgia, along with exciting gameplay twists.
Tasked with the job of revitalizing a farm, players will need to
befriend the villagers in town to unlock the titular "Seeds of
Memories"! Seeds can be unlocked in many ways, such as giving a
villager their favorite item, catching a giant fish, or by
raising their first cow. Players will need to be up to the
challenge of collecting all of the Seeds of Memories!
Old favorites return in the animal department with cows, sheep,
and chickens, along with a horse to ride, and a dog to keep as a
pet! Farmers will also have a new pet to take care of, but it
isn't what they'd expect... It's a bobcat! The bobcat starts out
wild, but as players befriend the animal, can they convince the
bobcat to become their loyal friend?
Featuring cooking, fishing, foraging, and mining, players will
need to upgrade their tools to find the highest-quality items.
Players will also be able to participate in contests and
festivals like the Cooking Contest and Starry Night Festival!
Woo one of the ten marriage candidates – 5 bachelors and 5
bachelorettes – and find that special someone to make their
farming life complete!
