Story of Seasons’ 30th anniversary collaboration opens at Nasu Kogen Rindo Lake Family Ranch on September 22, 2026, bringing familiar farm-game tasks into a real ranch. You can follow resident requests around the grounds, then try hands-on activities such as brushing animals or milking.

Kirari: I’d want a photo with a favorite character’s panel and the real ranch in the background. That’s a lovely setting for an anniversary keepsake.

Red: I want to try the milking. I know the routine with a controller—now I’m curious how I’d manage with an actual cow.

The poll’s top ten join the ranch

The collaboration runs through January 11, 2027. Its opening phase brings back content from last year and features the top ten characters from the series’ 30th anniversary popularity poll, with character and animal panels placed around the ranch.

Most first-phase content is planned to remain available through the final day. Further content may be added or updated during the event.

Follow the stamps, requests and a blue orichalcum ball

The character-search stamp rally costs ¥300. Complete it to receive one random original trading card from ten designs.

Resident request boards offer another reason to explore: find the boards around the ranch and complete their requests. Each completed request earns one random card from the same ten-card set.

At the digital adventure lab, finding the blue orichalcum ball or completing the cow digital coloring activity also earns one random card. The activity itself is listed as free, but a separate attraction fee is required.

Put down the controller and try milking

The collaboration’s hands-on ranch activities include brushing and milking at ¥600 per person each, plus butter-making at ¥700 per person. Each participation earns one random trading card, so there is a souvenir attached to trying a real ranch task, too.

A food break, then anniversary goods

The collaboration menu includes five drinks and two food or dessert items. Each menu item purchased comes with one random coaster from ten designs.

The ten-item goods lineup combines new 30th anniversary and top-ten-character designs with returning goods from last year. Every ¥3,000 spent on collaboration goods, including tax, earns one random mini badge from ten designs.

Returning goods are available only while stocks last. Some are planned for online sales after the event, with details to be announced later; that plan does not cover every item.
