Numskull Games (@NumskullGames) and Natsume Inc (@Natsume_Inc) have teamed up to bring Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos to Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch platforms. Numskull Games will publish the physical release of the game in Europe, marking the first collaboration between the two independent video game publishers.

Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos includes beloved characters, like the Harvest Sprites and Harvest Goddess, and familiar goals like farming and caring for animals but also takes the player in new directions as they explore a new world.

Anthos was a peaceful land guarded by the Harvest Goddess and Harvest Sprites, protecting its inhabitants from natural disasters. However, a volcanic eruption devastated the region, requiring the protectors to exhaust their power safeguarding the people and animals of Anthos. Villages were separated and unfortunate souls were trapped, unable to return.

The Harvest Goddess, believing in future reconnection, sent a message in a bottle before falling into a deep sleep. Now, 10 years later, you discover the SOS. With the help of your inventive friend Doc Jr., you must revive the Harvest Goddess and Sprites while reuniting the villages. Explore and farm across Anthos using Doc's Expando-Farm, spanning snowy mountains to beautiful beaches.
