The Rune Factory 5 E3 trailer gives us a glimpse at a few of the characters, including Alice, Ryker, and Scarlett, along with some familiar and new monster faces, such as a giant, three-headed red dog and massive snake fiend.

It also shows some of Rune Factory 5’s  fully 3D locations in more detail, from lush forests to idyllic farm vistas.

Rune Factory 5 continues the series’ tradition of blending dungeon crawling and action-packed fights with sedate farming but adds a few twists. XSEED describes it like this:

Rune Factory 5 is currently slated for Nintendo Switch only. However, if you need more farming bliss in your life on other platforms, XSEED also announced it’s releasing Rune Factory 4 Special on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, and Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town on Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

In addition to their normal duties, the hero can farm the land, cast a line into the nearby river, and so much more! Team up with townsfolk to battle monsters and unleash powerful combination attacks—just one of the features new to the series.
