Bandai Namco have announced a brand new Doraemon Story of Seasons game, Friends of the Great Kingdom, is set to arrive later this year.
After a few years, Doraemon Story of Seasons is finally getting a sequel. Friends of the Great Kingdom will retain the farming-sim gameplay with the Doraemon aesthetic, while telling a brand new story for players to enjoy!
DORAEMON STORY OF SEASONS: FRIENDS OF THE GREAT KINGDOM brings back the beloved Doraemon with an all-new original heartwarming story. Players guide Doraemon and his friends as they set up their farm on an unknown planet, experiencing casual farm simulation game play set against a picturesque landscape with realistic natural elements such as wind, light, and seasons.
“DORAEMON STORY OF SEASONS: FRIENDS OF THE GREAT KINGDOM builds on the traits that have set this series apart, as a relaxing and well-paced farm simulation game with beloved characters, compelling storytelling, and a rich, visually beautiful fantasy world,” said Koji Nakajima, Producer at Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. “DORAEMON STORY OF SEASONS: FRIENDS OF THE GREAT KINGDOM takes players and their friends on a journey with Doraemon, Noby, and other lovable characters as they build their farm and experience life on another planet.”
Players can experience DORAEMON STORY OF SEASONS: FRIENDS OF THE GREAT KINGDOM as a single-player game or with a friend in offline “couch” co-op, teaming up to build their farms and enjoy activities together such as harvesting crops, tending to animals, or going fishing. The sequel delivers new gameplay with Doraemon’s Gadgets, unique tools such as a “Mini Raincloud” and “Farm Restaurant” that players can use to improve and better manage their homestead.
No firm release date just yet, but Doraemon Story of Seasons: Friends of the Great Kingdom is set to launch on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PCs at some point this year.
