Despite there now being a rather saturated farming simulation game market, Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town still manages to earn a place amongst popular games such as Stardew Valley and My Time at Portia.

Now we get a sneak peak at the remake, and with less than a month remaining before release. The trailer shows just how much effort went into making this remaster just as delightful and darling as possible.
