Today, Marvelous USA officially announced new DLC for Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar, partnering with the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland for the release of The Pine Hoverfly Outfit Set. The pack will launch alongside the game on August 27, 2025, for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and Windows PC via Steam.
As a part of the partnership, all net proceeds from the new Pine Hoverfly Outfit Set DLC will directly support the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS) and its crucial invertebrate conservation efforts. The contents of the pack will include a new in-game sweater, beanie, and glider.
This isn’t the first partnership between the two, as Marvelous donated to support RZSS’s efforts to reestablish the pine hoverfly, a ‘Critically Endangered’ insect, back in 2020. This donation enabled the wildlife conservation charity to significantly expand its breeding programme from 170 to 8,000 individuals annually, actively preventing the species’ extinction.
Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar is the latest installment in this prolific series, transporting players to Zephyr Town with the hopes of restoring it to its former glory. Players will raise animals, harvest crops, and sell wares from their own stall in the lively weekly bazaar to restore prosperity to the town.
The game features picturesque mountainside living, effortless gliding across town using wind power, and a colorful cast of characters to befriend and romance. Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar is now available on the Marvelous USA Online Store on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 in a standard physical edition for $49.99/$59.99, and a physical Premium Edition for $69.99/$79.99.
