'Return to PopoloCrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale' hits 3DS on March 1st

First 'PopoloCrois' game to head West in over a decade.

Publisher XSEED has announced that their upcoming 'Return to Popolocrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale' will be releasing in the US on March 1st. The game is, as the name implies, a spinoff of the farming sim 'Story of Seasons', containing elements and characters from the classic 'PopoloCrois' JRPG franchise, adding in classic RPG questing and turn-based combat to the typical farming gameplay. You can catch the latest trailer for the game below:

I dearly love 'Rune Factory' another RPG 'Story of Seasons' spinoff, and while this takes things in a slightly different direction, I'm all for developers tinkering with the farming sim in unique ways. This looks endlessly charming, like something out of the PS1 era of RPG design, and I'm very fond of that idea.
