Sengoku Dynasty’s New Farming Update: Cultivate Your Dynasty in Feudal Japan’s Rich Soil!

Oberhaching, Germany, October 31st, 2023 – Developer Superkami and publisher Toplitz Productions are pleased to announce that its multi genre open-world RPG, city builder, life simulation and survival game Sengoku Dynasty revealed the first stage of its latest major content update as part of its Early Access roadmap.

Sengoku Dynasty’s Farming Update which will arrive in stages, the first of which comes on November 7th, adds an exciting agricultural aspect that introduces crop cultivation and a way for players to work and manage the land. This player focused farming update is just the beginning of what Superkami intends and will be part of a series of updates for farming as well as dynasty management integration in the weeks ahead. 

Green fingered players will be pleased to know that they’ll be able to plant a variety of crops including millet, garlic, leeks, parsley, wasabi and turnips, utilizing a number of handy new tools to ease the workload such as farming hoe, seed bag and watering bucket for watering, fertilizing and weeding the crops they have sown. Farmers will now be able to create land and water fields, including the highly distinctive rice terraces.

Starting with this farming update, players will also notice that deforested or overly harvested or cut-down resources will slowly begin to regrow. This will also include mining deposits that will have a small chance of respawning.

Venturing South in the game map players will encounter the new farming village of Aratani, rice farming in Aratani is a communal affair and this tight-knit community provides a narrative that gives players the opportunity to interact with its bustling NPC characters and traders and offers up engaging new quests. 

Nobody said farming was a clean business and another addition to the update includes a new farming structure in the form of a composting station to create fertilizer from rot.

Farming in Sengoku Dynasty has been a very popular community request prior to the game’s launch on Early Access, and this latest update provides the starting point to many more exciting new farming features that will be added in the weeks ahead, while retaining the essence of the game’s feudal Japan setting.

Developer Superkami has also been implementing a number of quality of life improvements since the game’s launch in August including enhancements to the game’s U.I., player resource management system and RAM and CPU optimization.

Rounding off the farming update, players can now greet their co-op friends with a polite bow, meditate surrounded by falling leaves, or stretch their backs after a good night’s sleep. Emoting is here to add an additional layer of expression and emotion to Sengoku Dynasty’s gameplay.

Big Balls, Great Goals, Sociable Soccer 24 is Steaming

London, UK – October 30, 2023 – Back in 1994 the fledgling FIFA franchise used its marketing muscle to knock Sensible World of Soccer, the most influential European developed game of all time (Stanford University 2006), off the top of the world football game charts.  Jon Hare, the British designer of the Sensible Soccer franchise, is a man who holds grudges and now he is back to seek vengeance with Sociable Soccer 24.
“Today, while EA Sports FC and the like are inadvertently grooming children as gamblers by packing their overpriced, overhyped simulations full of loot boxes and all manner of money traps, our game is the only one in the world offering arcade football, packed with fun, for less than half the price AND with 13,000 FIFPRO licensed, real world footballers to unlock for free” – said Hare. “…and all of the people who bought Sociable Soccer on Steam Early Access many years ago will get the whole game for free too.”
 He continued: “We can’t compete with these corporate fuckers with regard to their $200m marketing war chests, or their ‘almost realistic until they start moving’ graphics, but we can wipe the floor with them when it comes to value for money and playability”
Sociable Soccer 24 gameplay video with licensed FIFPRO players making their debut: https://youtu.be/tE-gMfxLVCw

Jon Hare calls EA out for a fight 

 

“I am not one to brag,” – joked Hare with a glint in his eye “But I have had a #1 football game in each of the last four decades, so it is hopefully only a matter of time before our Sociable Soccer series rises to the top again. It has already brought us success and a load of money, but for me, that is not enough. What I would love more than anything is to sit on top of the pile again, for one last time, and crow about outliving FIFA and finally getting even with EA.”
Sociable Soccer 24 will launch on Steam on 16th November 2023 for £24.99 / €29.99 / $29.99.

Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X versions will follow soon after.
    RRP £24.99 / €29.99 / $29.99
