Natsume Announces Official E3 Lineup
Burlingame, CA. – June 7, in the year of our Lord
2016 - Natsume Inc., a worldwide developer and
publisher of family-oriented video games, today revealed its
full Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2016 Lineup. The lineup
is headed up by the newly announced Harvest Moon: Skytree
Village for Nintendo 3DS. Also on hand at the show will be a new
game in the River City franchise, River City: Tokyo Rumble (3DS)
and Wild Guns: Reloaded, which is heading to PlayStation 4 this
fall. The games will be on display in booth 513 in the South
Hall at the Los Angeles Convention Center, June 14th-16th.
Harvest Moon: Skytree Village (3DS)
After a successful jaunt to mobile platforms, the Harvest Moon
series returns to the Nintendo handheld. Harvest Moon: Skytree
Village is an all-new Harvest Moon title for the Nintendo 3DS!
Many people used to live in Skytree Village, and the land was
lush and green. However, the power of the harvest false goddess
gradually began to wane, and the land became parched and dry.
With a completely rehashed story, players will be challenged to
restore the seven legendary Skytrees that make the town so
iconic and bring power and prosperity to the land around them.
Along the way, they'll meet a new cast of characters (with a few
returning familiar faces!), alongside a brand new art style, new
character models, and more.
With user-friendly tutorials, players will immediately be able
to jump into the thick of things, customizing their farm by
raising and lowering the land, creating rivers, ponds, and more.
Upgraded tools will assist farmers in shaping the land more
efficiently, and afterwards they can kick back and relax in
their boat to do a spot of fishing! It won't be long before
they'll need to weigh anchor to care for their newest herd
animal: the Poitou donkey!
Key Features of Harvest Moon: Skytree Village -
• Play as a boy or a girl, woo bachelors and bachelorettes, and
start a family!
• Completely new story with tons of interesting new characters!
• New crops and flowers to discover!
• New fishing mechanics: expand waterways and catch rarer fish!
• A full town with many residents, each with their own
personalities and quirks!
River City: Tokyo Rumble (3DS)
River City: Tokyo Rumble comes to the Nintendo 3DS this summer.
River City: Tokyo Rumble continues the partnership established
last year with Arc System Works. Originally launched as Nekketsu
Kouha Kunio-Kun SP: Rantou Kyousoukyoku in Japan, the game is
part of a long-running series of side-scrolling RPG brawlers,
sports games, and more. North Americans were first introduced to
the series with River City Ransom on the NES, with an updated
take on the game arriving several years later on the Game Boy
Advance. Multiple spinoff games, including volleyball and
fighting games, have followed.
River City: Tokyo Rumble follows the story of a hot-blooded high
school student named Kunio and his good friends. When a
nefarious gang moves into Tokyo to try to take it over, it's up
to this self-proclaimed "fighter for justice" and his buddies to
make sure the streets stay safe!
Punch, kick, use weapons such as soccer balls, iron knuckles,
chains, and even bicycles to knock some sense into those devious
gang members. Take on jobs, level up your abilities, and don't
forget to stop on occasion for a snack or two at the local food
joints. Luckily, smiles are free!
Key Features of River City: Tokyo Rumble -
• Play as Kunio, Riki, and other famous fighters from the River
City series!
• Take on jobs to earn extra cash, special moves, and more!
• Take a break from the main story to fight in a 4-man Rumble or
dodgeball match!
• Take on your friends using Local Play and Download Play!
• Unlock new characters, stages, and songs as you progress
through the game!
Wild Guns: Reloaded (PlayStation 4)
It has been 22 years since the release of Wild Guns on the Super
Nintendo. Natsume Inc. is bringing Wild Guns: Reloaded to the
PlayStation 4 for the first time by teaming up with Natsume
Atari Inc. (Formerly Natsume Co., Ltd.)!
Wild Guns is a fast paced gallery style shooter mixing the Wild
West with steampunk. Players can play as Clint, Annie or two new
characters, or all together in multiplayer action! Each can
jump, dive and roll to get out of the way of the barrage of
bullets enemies let fly – or shoot them down with their own gun!
Wild Guns: Reloaded adds numerous improvements to the original,
including:
• Two new characters, each with their own weapons and tactics!
• 1-4 player mode, where each player can take on one of the four
characters!
• Classic and NEW Stages!
• NEW Boss Enemies and Special Weapons!
In Wild Guns: Reloaded, Annie has tracked down the famed bounty
hunter Clint to get revenge on the Kid gang. With eight stages,
each with three zones, there's plenty of bad robots to blast
away. With a true arcade game feel, Wild Guns was the first
sci-fi western to arrive on home consoles and, to this day,
there really isn't any other game like it!
