Natsume previously published games in the Bokujō Monogatari game series in North America under the umbrella title of Harvest Moon.
Natsume has continued to release new games under the Harvest Moon title.
The company recently announced that it will release the Harvest Moon: Light of Hope game for PlayStation 4, PC, and Nintendo Switch in Japan, North America, and Europe.
However, XSEED Games is now publishing Bokujō Monogatari games in North America, and it is using the title Story of Seasons because it cannot use Natsume’s Harvest Moon title.
