Well here's a lovely bit of news for your Thursday morning (or whenever you're reading this) — the adorable and charming Doraemon will be returning to Switch this November in his farming sim sequel, Doraemon Story of Seasons: Friends of the Great Kingdom.
Earlier this week, Bandai Namco released a new trailer announcing that the game would be launching on 2nd November. The game takes place on a brand new planet and sees Doraemon and friends attempting to make a new, cosy life. You'll harvest crops, rear animals, and get to use plenty of Doraemon's trusty gadgets. Like a Time Kerchief. Sounds like we could do with one of these.
The game's lovely watercolour-esque visuals (and adorably chubby cows) are irresistible by themselves, really. But you can visit farms above the clouds too. Doraemon sure has a lot of tricks up his sleeve...
This fun crossover with the Bokujō Monogatari series (Story of Seasons, what used to be Harvest Moon in the West) will help keep us cosy in the final months of the year after we've had a few too many hot chocolate drinks...
Will you be picking up Friends of the Great Kingdom on 2nd November? Let us know!

I will pick the PS5 version. 😊
I love the Art Direction but I played the demo of the first game and it was sooooo ridiculously hand holding that I lost all interest in some few minutes.
I hope one day they will make a real good Story of Seasons Game more like the harvest moon games they made on snes, n64 and ps1.
Hope we can have the option to remove that awful border
Of course I will pick up this game. This was a great surprise to me when it was announced in the Direct. The last game was the best Story Of Seasons on the Switch. The atmosphere was simply much better and everything felt so warm and friendly. The artstyle is better and more natural. And playing a boy who stays a boy is cool too.
I bought the first one just recently but haven't got to trying it yet. Aesthetic is a big part of the attraction with these kinda games, and the Doraemon peeps have done a better job on that front than most of the competition.
Not day one but minute one for this BokuMono fan!
I wish Doraemon was more popular outside of Japan.
Good luck competing with Harvestella!
