Harvest Moon: Skytree Village fans can rejoice as the next entry in the Harvest Moon series is getting a special limited edition in North America courtesy of a partnership between Natsume and NIS America. Although Natsume is bringing the Nintendo 3DS exclusive game to North American audiences, NIS America is working with the publisher to deliver a limited edition featuring some additional collectibles. Today, NIS America has started taking pre-orders for the Harvest Moon: Skytree Village Limited Edition exclusively on their official North American online store.
In addition to a copy of the game, collectors who purchase the limited edition will get a 44-page softcover artbook, a physical copy of the game’s soundtrack packaged in a jewel case, plus some additional items packaged in a colorful box.
One of the more unique collectibles is a set of six lapel pins. Each pin is a unique representation of a signature farm animal from the series, including a dog, chicken, sheep, horse, donkey, and cow. Also of note is a rubber strap keychain in the shape of a blue feather; but, a final image of what this particular item looks like has not yet been revealed.
The list price for the limited edition is $49.99, and it is only available for purchase on the NIS America online store.
In addition to the traditional farm life the franchise is known for, Harvest Moon: Skytree Village tasks the player with restoring life to a barren land by cultivating the power of seven legendary Skytrees.
The game was announced to be in development at E3 2016, along with a playable demo at the Natsume booth. On first impression, Siliconera previously reported Skytree Village felt like a “fresh start” for the franchise.
Harvest Moon: Skytree Village is expected to launch in North America in Fall 2016, with the NIS America online store listing an expected launch window of October 2016.
