The Celestial Collapse—a calamity caused by a colossal object crashing into the eastern lands known as Azuma. The devastating impact sent fragments of terrain to the skies above and the seas below. With the earth shattered, the power provided by the runes ceased to flow. The gods of nature vanished soon after. Mountains crumbled and fields withered, leaving the people with nothing…not even hope. You awaken, startled by a dream of dueling dragons. You don’t remember how or why, but a voice resonates within you. “Accept the power of an Earth Dancer. Use this power to save the land.” The classic action-RPG and life-simulation gameplay, beloved by Rune Factory fans across the globe, is taken in a bold new direction in Guardians of Azuma. This all-new adventure takes place in the never-before-seen eastern country of Azuma where you will assume the Earth Dancer powers and fight against the spreading Blight to bring hope back to this once-prosperous land. Choose from one of two protagonists whose destinies are intertwined by mysterious forces. Use sacred treasures to fight against the Blight’s many forms to restore the people, and even gods, to their natural glory. Take farming further, as you’ll manage more than a plot, rebuilding entire villages and cultivating new allies and resources along the way. Explore seasonal-themed villages heavily inspired by traditional Japanese culture, each with brand-new festivals and revamped fan-favourites, as well as charming romance candidates.

Embrace your fate. The adventure of a new world awaits. Bold New Abilities and WeaponsAs an Earth Dancer, use the power of dance, sacred treasures, and fresh weapons like the Bow and Talisman to purify the land, your farms, and undo the Blight’s damage. It Takes a VillageDon’t just mind the farm—rebuild entire villages! Construct and place buildings, enticing people to return to the villages and contribute. Revive the gods to bring vitality and valuable resources back to the plagued lands. Your Fantasy Japanese LifeExperience beautiful Japanese-inspired character designs and aesthetics—from festivals to events to monsters. Explore Azuma’s natural landscapes and its seasonal-themed locales steeped in tradition. Classic Romance and RelationshipsChoose between male and female protagonists, then befriend or romance any of the eligible candidates in fully voiced scenarios.

    A great launch title.
    Given the limited choice for Nintendo Switch 2 games at launch I think this is a pretty great option. It is my first Rune Factory game and it has been easy to pick up and play. The story is engaging and the gameplay loop is satisfying.If it matters to you the game is on a cartridge.If the launch day lineup was stacked this is probably not a 5 star game but given the limited options, unless you want Mario Kart and nothing else this is going to keep you interested until more games show up.

    A different, but no less fun Rune Factory.
    This game is not like the mainline Rune Factory games. There is farming but it’s very simplified and less involved compared to the other games. This game focuses on exploration, town building, and forging relationships. The story is good, the combat is fun, and the graphics are great on the Switch 2. If you want something a little different from the usual formula or are a fan of Rune Factory in general then I recommend this one

    This will surprise you!
    Been playing this for around 9 hours and it’s a solid game. Story is great, combat is good and the farming simulating/building is actually my favourite part which surprised me. Highly recommend this. This game will keep me busy for hours, worth the money.

    Great Game, But Not All on the Card
    The game itself is fine, even if cutscenes are typically overlong. The problem I have is that Marvelous said the entire game would be on a 64GB card, yet you have to download the 12GB Switch 2 update to play.Update: it seems this is probably a patch mistake made by the developer, as some players have said the Switch 2 version can be played from the card provided you don’t update the game the first time you boot it. Otherwise, it refuses to boot until you download that 12GB.

    Overpriced but fun farming sim.
    Overpriced but fun farming sim, if your looking for a good JRPG, however your not going to find it here, only pay £35-£40 for this.

    Great game
    If you enjoy the Rune Factory games, or any cosy/relaxing games where you build relationships, decorate your villages, farm and much more, then grab it. I’m 20+ hours in can’t put it down. Love the art style, music, story and characters.
