posted on by Karen Ressler
Marvelous and XSEED Games announced during the Nintendo Direct presentation on Wednesday that Rune Factory 4 Special, a remastered Nintendo Switch version of Rune Factory 4, will launch this year. In addition, the presentation confirmed that Rune Factory 5 is in development.
Developer Neverland released Rune Factory 4 for the Nintendo 3DS in Japan in July 2012, and XSEED Games canceled in Europe.
The Rune Factory series combines RPG elements such as dungeon-crawling with farming game elements such as raising animals (in this case monsters). In Rune Factory 4, the player is a prince or princess who can manage a village. The new version will offer new stories about "newlywed" life, after the player marries one of the townspeople.
