Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma to x Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar free DLC announced

It has been announced by Marvelous that Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma will be receiving a free content update in collaboration with Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar. As of now there is no information about this update, other than it will be available in the near future.

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma is a spin off of the Rune Factory series, seeking to emphasize its action RPG elements rather than the farming ones the franchise is known for. Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar is a faithful remake of 2008’s Harvest Moon DS: Grand Bazaar, while smoothing out some of the rougher edges from the DS era. 

You can read more about both games below:

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma
Choose from one of two protagonists whose destinies are intertwined by mysterious forces. Use sacred treasures to fight against the Blight’s many forms to restore the people, and even gods, to their natural glory. Take farming further, as you’ll manage more than a plot, rebuilding entire villages and cultivating new allies and resources along the way. Explore seasonal-themed villages heavily inspired by traditional Japanese culture, each with brand-new festivals and revamped fan-favorites, as well as charming romance candidates.

Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar
Bring the winds of change to Zephyr Town
Build your farm in Zephyr Town and breathe new life into the once-famous bazaar. Set up your stall to sell produce and goods from the crops and animals you raise on your farm, and meet charming townsfolk to befriend and romance as you help the close-knit community thrive.

Both Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma and Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar are out now on the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2. You can also check out our review for Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma here, and Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar here.
