I'm pretty happy that Xseed is bringing it over and I hope they keep releasing them because while Natsume was the one who brought the series here in the first place, their translations sucked with many errors that even a 1st grader could pick up. Plus, Natsume always took forever to bring them here. With the wonderful translation that XSEED did for Rune Factory 4, I am hoping for something of that nature.

Glad to see Connect to a New Land confirmed for a stateside release. I was expecting an E3 announcement at the LEAST but an early one is fine too. Very Happy

Haha and I was just talking about the Harvest Moon franchise the other day with my older siblings!Rune Factory is fun and all but sometimes we just want to have a calming experience taking care of animals and crops.Glad to hear this is heading over hoping for more trailers in the near future and a release date.Also have to remember that new name.Kind of saddening since I got used to the title Harvest Moon since I was a lil kid.

From reading the article and doing some research of my own it seems that is the case since Natsume owns the title Harvest Moon Xseed had to release it under a new name.Quite saddening too since I got used to the name Harvest Moon since I was a little kid.

Yes. You can swim to salvage items and fish from the river.

I got my copy on release day and loved It. Unfortunately, I loved it so much that my 3DS battery broke.

At least the translation will be better than past Harvest Moon games with Natsume's original awkwardness: http://legendsoflocalization.com/lets-confirm-the-origin-of-fire-in-harvest-moon/

Missed opportunity to title the game Moon Harvest. Good way to keep it legal and honor the legacy.

But then some people will confuse it as a rip-off brand.

The reason I had translated Irisu as Ilis is because there already is an Iris in the Harvest Moon/Rune Factory series. Didn't want to mix them up.
