Live as a Hero of Rigbarth in Rune Factory 5!

The story trailer for the fifth major installment in the main Rune Factory series was released earlier today. The series began as a spin-off to Natsume Inc.'s Harvest Moon (now known as Story of Seasons). Since then, it has become its own series. Rune Factory 5 takes the player, as Ares or Alice, to the border town of Rigbarth.  As a member of SEED, a group of peacekeepers, the adventures are endless.

The story trailer previews the journey the player will take, as well as more of the characters. Complete the storyline of your special someone to “fall in love, pop the question, and even start a family!” Most notably, it is the first game in the series to feature same-sex marriage.

Live as a hero and keep the peace in Rigbarth as Rune Factory 5 releases on March 25th, 2022 for the Nintendo Switch. Pre-order now available. Need something to get you by until release? Check out our Headland review.
