The producer of Story of Seasons and Rune Factory has formed a new studio
It's been some time since we've heard about the new Story of Seasons game, and even longer since we've heard anything about Rune Factory. And while that fact hasn't changed, the producer of both franchises seems to be up to something. Yoshifumi Hashimoto has created a new studio called "Hakama". The purpose of this new development studio isn't clear yet, but it's a direct subsidiary of Marvelous, which has normally been the publisher of both aforementioned game series. Hashimoto has also stepped down from his role of Chief Creative Officer and Executive Officer at Marvelous in order to helm this new studio. At the time of writing, Hashimoto is confirmed to be working on two games: Dragon Marked for Death, a 2D action RPG, and Story of Seasons: Untitled, both of which are Switch exclusives.
