For those that haven’t gotten to play Doraemon Story of Seasons, now is the perfect time.
I am always on the lookout for great deals on games to add to my library, and share with my friends. Doraemon: Story of Seasons is certainly one of my favorite Nintendo Switch games currently available.
If you are unfamiliar with this game, it is a crossover between the mega popular Story of Seasons games, and the Japanese manga Doraemon. It is a super cute little adventure game with lots of farming and social aspects.
You play as Noby, the main character from the Doraemon series. Explore the town, make friends, and help build the community into a strong, unified and beautiful place to be.
Run your farm, raise cattle or relax and do a little bug catching. If you are feeling adventurous, there will always be some exciting journeys to partake in Doraemon: Story of Season.

This new Doraemon game is set to be released in Japan next year.
The collaboration between Doraemon and Story of Seasons has been one of the greatest things to happen to gaming in some time. Now, Doraemon goes in a new direction with a fresh game being released that is based on the action/adventure anime movie of the same title.
Doraemon: Nobita’s New Dinosaur will release in Japan in 2020, and will hopefully come to the West. Although the Story of Seasons crossover is the only Doraemon game to receive a western release so far, so it doesn’t seem likely. But, who knows? Maybe Bandai Namco will get their hands on this one, too.
The new movie and game will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Doraemon franchise. The popular manga series has been doing quit well in gaming industry, and will continue to do so with the release of this new game, which follows in a line of over 60 Doraemon video games that have been released over the years.
Not much more has been revealed about the release of this new Doraemon game, but I will be sure to keep an eye it!

In the latest Nintendo Direct, Nintendo and Bandai Namco announced that Japan will be getting an exciting crossover game. The game will ‘combine’ the farming simulation Story of Seasons franchise with popular kids anime franchise Doraemon. The game will be entitled Doraemon Nobita no Bokujou Monogatari, or Doraemon: Nobita’s Story of Seasons.
Playing as a young boy named Nobita (who also features in Doraemon’s orginal manga and anime), the Story of Seasons aspect of the game sees players growing crops, raising animals, and improving their farm, which is located in a town called Shizen Town. The game also features the Harvest Goddess and other regular characters from the Story of Seasons Franchise, as well as Doraemon and his friends.
The Doraemon part of the game utilizes the tools of Doraemon (who is a robotic blue cat) when growing crops. Using his tools, you can enlarge and even mutate crops.
As is typical in Story of Seasons and Harvest Moon games, Doraemon: Nobita’s Story of Seasons has regular town events that players can partake in. At these events, Doraemon can use the aforementioned tools to lend a hand.
Another feature of the game shared with the Story of Seasons franchise is the ability to make friends with gifts. By giving villagers items that they like, Nobita can improve his relationships with them.
Although there isn’t a set release date, the game is expected to release exclusively on the Nintendo Switch in Japan later this year. With Story of Seasons games selling well in Japan, and Doraemon being an extremely popular anime series there, it is expected that the crossover game will sell like hot cakes.
Whilst Doraemon is less notorious in the West, we can still hope that this adorable looking game will eventually get localized!
