Marvelous released a new trailer for Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar, the newest remake in the life sim series. Grand Bazaar will launch on PC, Switch, and Switch 2 on August 27, along with a special Premium Edition.

Grand Bazaar is set in Zephyr Town, once a hub of trade and commerce, but now little more than a ghost town. To restore the town’s glory, players will expand their farm, harvest crops, raise animals, and sell their wares. Plus there’s fishing, bug catching, and horse racing.

Players can raise over 100 different crops throughout the seasons. Zephyr Town is known for its windy weather, and iconic windmills. Windmills are used to refine raw goods. Plus, players can ride the winds using a glider.

Story of Seasons, formerly Harvest Moon, is one of the oldest farm sim series. Like many modern entries, Grand Bazaar is a remake of Harvest Moon DS: Grand Bazaar, which originally released on the Nintendo DS in 2010. The remake features a larger world, new characters, expanded story, and, in a series first, full voice work during cutscenes.

Grand Bazaar is also getting a special Premium Edition, for $69.99. The Premium Edition includes a 115+ page art book, soundtrack on CD, Sheep Pocket Plush, cloth poster, and special Outer Box.

Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar will launch on Steam PC, Switch, and Switch 2 on August 27. It’s rated E for Everyone.
