Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma Protagonists Marriage Explained

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma Director Shiro Maekawa talked to Famitsu about the new spin-off title in the fantasy farming series and explained how the marriage system works between the two playable protagonists. [Thanks, Famitsu!] In past titles in the Rune Factory series, the player is usually given the choice to play as either a male or female protagonist. However, in Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, the protagonists of both genders will appear throughout the course of the game and story, and the game allows the player to marry the other protagonist as well. When asked about the reasons for adopting the protagonists marriage system for Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, Director Maekawa said that there are two. The first one is that the Wii and PS3 spin-off Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny introduced this system, but it was never used in any other game. Maekawa felt not using it was a great waste and wanted to include it for this game. The second reason is due to player feedback. When they introduced the choice for a male or female protagonists, many players felt like really liked these characters and designs and wanted to be able to marry them. Maekawa also felt similar to these designs and characters, so he took these comments as another reason to include this system. Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma will come out on May 30, 2025 for the Nintendo Switch and Windows PC via Steam. You can read more about the marriage candidates in the game here.
