As a clarification, this title was developed by Marvelous, the original developers of the Harvest Moon series. Marvelous rebranded their franchise to the Story of Seasons as the rights to the Harvest Moon name in the US belongs to Natsume. Natsume is a separate company responsible for their own version of Harvest Moon games: Lost Valley and Skytree Village.
XSeed, the localization team for this game, also announced that they will bring some Trio of Towns DLC to the West. Japan received nearly six months of DLC support post-launch—which includes new marriage candidates, pets, clothes, and more. No release date, pricing, or specific DLC has been revealed yet, but the DLC which was free in Japan would likely have to be paid in the West to cover localization costs.
STORY OF SEASONS: Trio of Towns is a fresh new entry in the Bokujo Monogatari' series, a long-standing and top-selling farming/life-simulation franchise. After creating a customized character, players can live out a new life by cultivating their favorite fruits and vegetables while expanding and filling their farm with their choice of animals. For the first time in the series, players can explore three different towns, each with their own regional crops, animals, and flavors, in search of new ways to grow their farms and friendships.
