Hometown Story will be making its first appearance at E3 2013 next month. Natsume announced today that the game will be making its playable debut at the expo.
Natsume president and CEO Hiro Maekawa said:
“We’re very pleased to have a playable version of our new IP, Hometown Story, at this year’s E3. We’ve been able to see the exciting development process of this game during the past year, and are now extremely happy with the chance to share the game with everyone!”
Hometown Story is developed by Harvest Moon creator Yasuhiro Wada. Nobuo Uematsu has composed music for the title while Atsuko Nishida has provided character designs.
Hometown Story begins as players return to their hometown after inheriting their grandmother’s shop. The shop has become run down, but the magical sprite “Pochica” will help you get things back up and running. You’ll meet the unique residents of the town, all of whom grow throughout the game.
