HARVEST MOON: THE LOST VALLEY GOES GOLD

Natsume Inc., a worldwide developer and publisher of family-oriented video games, today announced that their farming-RPG Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley has gone gold! Launching exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS on November 4 2014, anticipation has been rising for this blend of classic Harvest Moon gameplay and innovative new mechanics. Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley is rated E for Everyone by the ESRB and retails for $29.99.

“From the moment we announced the newest Harvest Moon title at E3, we’ve been working hard to bring players an exciting game,” said Taka Maekawa, Producer of Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley. “We’ve taken 17 years of fan feedback and the passion of the Natsume staff and poured both into this title.”

Fans can pre-order the game now both in stores and online at GameStop and EBGames (Canada) and on the Natsume store to receive an adorable pre-order dog plushie! Modeled after the dog players can have as a pet in-game, this cute 5″ plushie continues the longstanding tradition of Harvest Moon cuddly collectables.

Also available for pre-order is the Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley Collector’s Edition! Featuring a 12″ premium-size rabbit plushie, one of the wild animals within the Lost Valley, the rabbit is part of a full set of premium plushies created by Multiverse Studio, Inc. and available exclusively via the Natsume Online Store.

In Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley, players will have to discover why the Lost Valley is cursed in a perpetual winter. With the Harvest Goddess nowhere to be found, and the Harvest Sprites locked away, it’s up to the player – an unlikely farmer who was caught unexpectedly in one of the Lost Valley’s fierce snowstorms – to discover the source of this curse, and bring the seasons back to the Lost Valley!

Plant crops, raise cows, chickens, and sheep, foster relationships with locals, and even woo a future spouse! Marry, have a child, and unlock the full potential of all seven Harvest Sprites, along with the Harvest Goddess and Harvest God – all inside a fully customizable world where the land is customized by the player themselves!
