Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar Brings the Cozy in Wholesome Direct Trailer

Two characters having a delightful conversation in Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar.

Reviving a dilapidated farm is a standard in farming sims, but revitalizing a town’s bazaar is quite the undertaking!

During the recent Wholesome Direct, developer Marvelous reassured us of the coziness of Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar with its latest trailer. Longtime fans will remember this game originally as Harvest Moon DS: Grand Bazaar, now remade from the ground up for modern platforms!

Make friends, double-jump around your farm, and sell your best goods at the bazaar in the new trailer below:

It’s up to you to revive Zephyr Town’s bazaar by farming the best crops, raising livestock, and cooking up delicious treats to sell to townspeople and visitors alike. As your side hustle at the bazaar grows, the more you can improve your farm. Everyone wins!

During our hands-on preview with the game last month, our fearless leader Mike Salbato had this to say about his time with the game:

I’m impressed at the apparent scale of the game and its abundance of characters, crops, and animals, the engaging bazaar aspect, and its overall presentation and feel. And I still spent only a small amount of time with it.
