Natsume is bringing out River City: Tokyo Rumble as a physical title in North America tomorrow. Over on Amazon, you can now purchase the game with a limited edition keychain. Note that this is the only retailer where the bonus will be available, and there’s a chance that it will sell out at some point.

With River City: Tokyo Rumble releasing tomorrow in North America and Thursday in Europe, we now have some direct-feed footage from the English version. You can get a look at the various modes below.

Over on Amazon Canada, the official Harvest Moon: Skytree Village has been put up for us to see. You can see what the packaging image looks like above.

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

River City: Tokyo Rumble will launch in North America on September 7, Natsume announced today. The game will be offered both physically and digitally in North America.

Those who purchase River City: Tokyo Rumble from the Natsume Amazon store will receive a limited edition Kunio keychain. We have a look at that above.

As for the game itself, here’s an overview of River City: Tokyo Rumble:

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!

Players will punch, kick, and use a variety of weapons such as soccer balls, iron knuckles, chains, and even bicycles to knock some sense into those devious gang members. Taking on jobs, leveling up abilities, and stopping for a snack or two at local food joints are just some of the action-packed mayhem players will experience. Luckily, smiles are free!

Update: Added new screenshots to the post.


Original: Natsume has sent out some new assets for River City: Tokyo Rumble detailing some of the game’s characters. Find art below, along with their descriptions.

KUNIO – Kunio seeks to take back Tokyo from the massive Lion Alliance gang. Kunio is a thug with a heart of gold who looks out for his pals and fights for justice.

RIKI – A misunderstanding with Kunio roped Riki into the fray. Riki fights for justice, but when he gets really mad, he snaps and goes berserk.

MISAKO – Misako frowns on delinquents, but makes an exception for Kunio.

SHINJI – Shinji went to school with Riki and is older, so he expects to be respected. He demands respect from his lowerclassmen, with fists if necessary!

MISUZU – Physically huge, Misuzu intimidates people and has a tough personality to match. Treat this delicate flower like a lady, or she’ll introduce you to her fists!

RANDY – Returning from River City Ransom, twins Randy and Andy make up the Double Dragons!

SABU – Gunning for revenge against Kunio, who previously humiliated the Sanwa Gang. Fans of Renegade should remember this bad guy!

TEX – Usually easygoing, until something gets him riled. Then he turns nasty! Watch out for his spin attack!

TIGER CLAW – The younger of the Double Tigers wrestling brothers!
