ESRB Lists Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life, Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland Games for PS4

posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins

The Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB) is currently listing the Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life Special Edition and Harvest Moon Save the Homeland PlayStation 2 games for the PlayStation 4. The ESRB lists the publisher as Natsume Inc. for both games.

Marvelous released Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life Special Edition (Bokujō Monogatari: Oh! Wonderful Life) for the PS2 in Japan in 2004. Natsume released the game in the United States in 2005, and 505 Game Street released the game in Europe in 2005. The game is an enhanced port of Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life (Bokujō Monogatari: Wonderful Life), which arrived on the Nintendo GameCube in 2003 in Japan and in the United States and Europe in 2004.

Harvest Moon Save the Homeland (Bokujō Monogatari 3: Heart ni Hi wo Tsukete) shipped for the PS2 in Japan and the United States in 2001.

Natsume published most of the previous games in the Bokujō Monogatari franchise under the umbrella title of Harvest Moon in North America. However, since XSEED Games — Marvelous AQL's own subsidiary — published the most recent game in North America, it cannot use Natsume's Harvest Moon title. The last game, Bokujō Monogatari: Tsunagaru Shin Tenchi for Nintendo 3DS, debuted in North America under the title Story of Seasons in March 2015. XSEED Games will publish Bokujō Monogatari: Mitsu no Sato no Taisetsu na Tomodachi for the Nintendo 3DS under the title Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns in 2017.
