Grand Bazaar is Marvelous Entertainment's latest farm-sim remake.

Comments

Marvelous Entertainment announced Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar during the March 2025 Nintendo Direct. The title is a remake of the 2008 Nintendo DS game Harvest Moon: Grand Bazaar. The Story of Seasons remake launches for Nintendo Switch on August 27, 2025. Previous Story of Season remakes, including Friends of Mineral Town, launched on PC and other platforms, though Marvelous didn't say whether Grand Bazaar will as well.

Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar drops you in a run-down town whose glory days as a center of commerce are long gone. Rather than just running a farm and becoming the center of village life, your goal in Grand Bazaar is revitalizing the marketplace by selling the best items you produce and contributing to everyone else's success as well. The Grand Bazaar remake trailer showcased a visual overhaul--the original 2.5D is replaced with full, detailed 3D models--and sound clips, along with a new way to travel around the valley via a wind glider. Marvelous also said the remake will feature new characters and new events.

Other remakes, including Friends of Mineral Town, tweaked relationship systems to be more inclusive and added quality-of-life improvements as well, though Marvelous didn't outline other improvements in the reveal.
