The Ushi No Tane websites specialize in information, FAQs, and guides about the Nintendo console versions of the Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, and Legend of the River King video games. These game genres are created and published in Japan by Marvelous (JP). In other regions, you'll find Natsume, XSeed Games/Marvelous (USA), Marvelous (EU), and Rising Star involved in the series' release.

The latest version of the mainstream farming series that have been released in various regions of the world are:

• Japan: Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life (January 2023)
• North America: Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos (September 2023) and Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life (June 2023)
• Europe: Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos (October 2023) and Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life (June 2023)

The latest version of River King, in all regions of the world, is River King: Mystic Valley (JP 2007, NA 2008, EU 2009).

Since 2000, Ushi no Tane has been run by a grouchy old lady who happens to be fond of video game agriculture along with two feline helpers: Intern Captain Bootu and Intern Hondo Mewnaka. The website is not officially affiliated, sponsored, endorsed, or employed by the developers of Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, or River King. This is simply a fan site.

Latest Farming Video Game News

Last Weekend for HM64 Guide and April '18 Comic | Posted at 03:49 PM 06 April 2018Happy Farm'n Friday! As scheduled, the snow peas went outside last weekend along with a few marigold protectors. Unfortunately the slugs destroyed one of the marigolds; half of it is gone, surrounded by evidence of dried mucus. Bah! No worries, as there's plenty of marigolds to replace it. The second batch of seedlings are coming along quite nicely! Since a lot of the first batch of plants have been planted in larger pots or transplanted outside, there's room to start a new group of 20 seedlings under the grow light. Mwa ha ha, more coleus for the front-porch flower boxes! This week was a bit quiet for farming information. Still no peep from Marvelous in Japan about the Nintendo Switch version of Story of Seasons. We also have Harvest Moon: Light of Hope coming out next month in North America and later this summer in Europe via Rising Star Games. Wada's new game, Little Dragons Cafe, is being released later this summer in both NA (via AKSYS Games) and Europe (via Rising Star Games). We did Natsume Community Manger CeeCee back this week! Huzzah!

Last Weekend for Gerry's HM64 Guide Kickstarter

There's a few days remaining to support the unofficial Harvest Moon 64 player's guide written by Matt Gerry. The last physical print-run of the guide is featured as backer rewards for those who contribute to the crowd funding campaign. Since the $3,500 pledge goal was met (and has expanded to over $5,000), a digital version of the guide will be released for free in PDF or ePub formats. The Gerry's Guide Kickstarter ends on April 9 (Monday!)
