It was an exciting Nintendo Direct presentation today, especially for those who are fans of the Rune Factory series. Not only was a remastered version of Rune Factory 4 revealed, titled Rune Factory 4 Special, but Nintendo also confirmed that the next entry in the series is indeed in development.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Part of the joy of video games is leaving the regular world behind for a while and playing make-believe. And no other genre allows that fantasy more thoroughly than simulation. In the year 2022, players had plenty of simulation fantasies from which to pick. They could scout talent, manage finances, and guide a Formula 1 team to glory in F1 Manager 2022. Or, they could start a power washing business from their garage in PowerWash Simulator and wash their troubles away with odd jobs around the town of Muckingham. Alternatively, they could take a ranger post in the charming seaside town of Rigbarth, grow crops, fight monsters, and get married in Rune Factory 5. They could even build the university of their dreams in Two Point Campus."
Daily Video Game writes: "Amazon is offering up to 73% off on a wide variety of good select titles for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch gamers right now, ranging from action-adventure to RPG, shooter, and more, including recent releases!"
Wish the oddworld collection got released on ps4. I'd buy that disc in heartbeat
Rune Factory 5, Cuphead, and Mario + Rabbids are just some of the Early Black Friday UK deals you can purchase now.
I actually thought nothing in this Direct would make me too excited... Then, out of the blue, freaking Rune Factory 5 gets announced!! Stardew Valley did a decent job mixing Harvest Moon with dungeons, specially considering it was done by a single person, but Rune Factory is obviously the true king of the genre.
Yessssss!!!! Been too long since 4 and its being made for a freaking hd console!!!! This was the only announcement I needed to be satisfied with that direct. Neverland is still alive baby!!!! The drought of story of seasons/rune factory has been killing me!
