Platforms And New Screenshots For HARVEST MOON: THE WINDS OF ANTHOS Revealed

With the building anticipation for their next title in the series, Natsume Inc have shared some crucial information as well as providing a handful of screenshots for Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos! For starters, the land players will explore is known as Anthos, and is home to the Harvest Sprites, spirits that protect people and nature, as well as the goddess of nature known as the Harvest Goddess.

Players will be able to find and care for a variety of animals, including traditional farm animals like cows, chickens, sheep, and horses (which can be ridden as a form of travel), but will also be able to befriend pets like parakeets, owls, and rabbits, as well as wolves and Bengal tigers. It's essential to grow a variety of crops like corn, giant squash, and pineapples, as well as beautiful flowers including hibiscus and tulips to run a successful farm. Players will need to collect seeds from around the world with the help of the Harvest Wisps to grow both regular and rare crops.

About 10 years ago, an unprecedented eruption in Anthos's volcanic region forced the Harvest Goddess and her Harvest Sprites to use all their powers to protect the people. The people were saved, but the eruption left the villages cut off from each other... Many of the people who were caught outside of their own villages during the eruption ended up seeking refuge in Providence Village, so it's become something of a multicultural hub since then. Players can meet a variety of interesting characters, like Westley, who helps lead Providence Village alongside his adventurous younger sister, Vivi.

Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos doesn’t have a set release date yet, but it is confirmed to be released on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. What do you think of the latest screenshots for the game?
