Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma getting Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin collaboration [update: English trailer]
January 22: During a live stream event today, Marvelous revealed that Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma is receiving a Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin collaboration.
Not much about the partnership was confirmed. However, a quick look was shown with a video during that live stream. The collaboration makes sense given the similar settings and how they’re both under the Marvelous brand.
We have that live stream archive below – the Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin collaboration for Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma is shown at 1:42:44. You can also watch a good chunk of footage.

June 2: Marvelous has now shared an English trailer, which we have below. We also have the following information:
Harvest Goddess Sakuna and her guardian Tama, from the Edelweiss-developed Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin, will be available as a villager and party member when the title releases. Don’t be fooled by her diminutive size and choice of weapons, Sakuna has more experience fighting with farming implements than most warriors and is a capable companion on any adventure. Back at the village, don’t miss out on conversations with the Harvest Goddess featuring all-new voice over. Plus, Sakuna and Tama can assist with village tasks, including farming her specialty, rice!
