Rune Factory 2: A Fantasy Harvest Moon* for DS has been announced by Natsume for release in America on September 30th, 2008.
Rune Factory 2 is set several years after the first game where Raguna and friends have defeated the evil plans of the Sechs Empire. Things are at peace again in Norad Kingdom. In the village of Alvarna, a boy named Kyle has become old enough to travel on his own. Right before he begins his adventures, a strange premonition of doom begins to appear as a strange lady named Mana makes an appearance. It’s up to the player to uncover the source of these premonitions and bring peace to the kingdom once more.
In a first for the Rune Factory series, the story of Rune Factory 2 is multi-generational. Players begin the game as Kyle, a strange man who comes to Alvarna Village. Eventually, players will take on the role of Kyle’s child, opening up a whole new adventure.
It’s an innovative feature that allows players to follow the story of their family and the townsfolk over two generations! Rune Factory 2 offers innovative Touch Screen controls, easy-to-use menus, and an all-new compelling storyline.

* note: In Japan they dropped the sub-title for this and all future “Rune Factory” games in order to grow it as it’s own franchise independent of Harvest Moon.
