VIZ Media has officially announced a new single player adventure RPG to be released next Spring. Working with developers they have worked with in the past on this project shows how committed the team is to completing the project.
In
Garden Story, players take control of Concord, the newly appointed village guardian. With neighbors around and tasks to be done, the game sounds like it might not be too far off from an
Animal Crossing title with a bit of a spin.
“
Garden Story is an exciting addition to VIZ’s growing game catalog. The game’s development furthers our position in the indie game space and builds upon our relationships with the talented indie studios and developers at Picogram and Rose City Games. No gardening experience is required!” - Brad Woods, Chief Marketing Officer, VIZ Media.
“We met Picogram a couple years back at one of our community events with Portland Indie Game Squad, and we love what they do. I’m so excited that we get to be a part of making
Garden Story happen - it’s really something special!” - Corey Warning, co-founder of Rose City Games
"I've always loved working with the talented people at Rose City Games, and I've been a big fan of VIZ Media's work since I was a kid. To say the least, the journey to this point has been nothing short of wild! Believe it!" - Picogram
As you can see, everyone seems to be excited to work together and to bring fans this exciting new title in the Spring of 2020. Will you be checking it out?
In Garden Story, players take on the role of Concord, the newly appointed village guardian. There’s lots to keep this helpful adventurer busy; not only do your neighbors need assistance, but a mysterious Rot has also seeped into the foundations of the once flourishing island. Fortunately, Concord won’t be working at this alone. Help your friends with their struggles, and they’ll help you through yours. Balance caring for the environment, exploring new regions, and fostering new friendships as you solve puzzles and help restore the Grove to glory!
Garden Story will be available on PC and Mac OS X Platforms in the Spring of 2020.
