XSEED Games and Marvelous Europe have a new trailer for Rune Factory 4 Special, announcing its release on December 7th for Xbox One, PS4 and PC via Steam. It will retail for $29.99 and include the “Another Episode” DLC for free. Check out the trailer below which also features a decent amount of gameplay.
First released in 2012 for the Nintendo 3DS as Rune Factory 4 and then on the Nintendo Switch in 2020, Rune Factory 4 Special sees players dropping into Selphia, a quaint town which appoints them as the de facto ruler. Thus one sets out to improve the town by farming, helping out various NPCs with tasks and venturing into dungeons to slay monsters. A number of companions are available who can join the player on their adventures and it’s possible to settle down with one of them.
Rune Factory 4 Special includes new content like Newlywed Mode which offers post-game content with one’s partner and a new Hell difficulty for an added challenge. XSEED is also working on bringing Rune Factory 5 to the West in March 2022 with support for same-sex marriages. Stay tuned for more details in the coming months.
