E310 | Rune Factory 3 Heading to US

Natsume has officially confirmed that the latest entry in the Rune Factory series will be making its way to the US later this year.

Rune Factory 3: A Fantasy Harvest Moon once again puts players in touch with the rewarding Harvest Moon setup with a dollop of action and the third instalment for DS is set to be "the deepest Rune Factory yet" according to Natsume president Hiro Maekawa.

This time round we take on an adventurer that on the surface seems pretty normal. However Micah holds a deadly secret: he's half monster. He sets out to unite the humans and horned Univir before an evil force destroys them both. Play as both human and monster, and work with up to three players wirelessly to conquer dungeons packed to the brim with rare items and devious foes.

Rune Factory 3: A Fantasy Harvest Moon will make its first appearance at E3 2010 later this month.
