Today, Natsume shared the lineup of marriageable candidates in Harvest Moon: Skytree Village. Three characters are introduced: Dean, Cyril, and Gabriel.

Get the lowdown on each character straight from Natsume below. We also have a few screenshots and art in the gallery.

Dean is a big-hearted, strong young man with a love of flowers, which got him teased as a young child. Dean and his mother Carol came to the village to plant the mysterious seedling his late father left to them. Dean works in town as a florist, along with his mother.

“If you listen to flowers closely, they will tell you just what they need. Give them what they ask for, and they’ll blossom beautifully!” -Dean

Cyril is dashing aristocrat who comes from a famous family. He is serious, but a bit forgetful and gullible. However, he is an extremely straightforward and honest person, as is always trying to do the right thing.

“All I can offer is the earnest pledge of a gentleman to do my bit with a stiff upper lip and a tally-ho!” -Cyril

Gabriel is the oldest son of Sofia, the livestock keeper, and has a younger brother, Michael. He is a quite shy, and isn’t very good at talking to people, but his love of animals shines through in everything he does.

“I don’t express myself well… It takes me a long time to find the words.” -Gabriel

Update 2 (9/15): The update can now be downloaded in North America.


Update: The 3Souls patch is a 44MB download.


Original (9/9): 3Souls’ new patch can now be downloaded in Europe. In case you missed it, here’s a recap of what’s included straight from developer Red Column:

– Two new languages: Thanks to the great help from Nintendo-Town.fr and Simone Morelli, we were able to offer french and Italian in the game!
– Rush Respawn: new mode in the Game Over screen. Now you can choose to continue from the last moment before you died (without restarting the full level).
– More Vault options: you can check out the ML-Rules, Memories and the “8 Seconds of Nindies” found them in the game.
– Easter egg less intrusive: “8 Seconds of Nindies” is now hidden and need a extra action to be activated.
– Wheel portal balanced: more intuitive and forgiven.
– Lightball portal balanced: accept light and darker colors.
– ML-Rules position changed: those are not in the way of the player anymore.
– Framerate ventilator fixed: this happened sometimes in the the stages with ventilator shafts and now has been fixed.
– Remove any Try&Error: any platform, path or puzzle has always a clue to be resolved.
– Minor adjustment overall: better experience with different adjustment in platforms, blocks and other elements in general, for a better gameplay experience.

The update isn’t live in North America just yet, but it should be coming soon. We’ll let you know when it’s up in the states.
