Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma has been handed an official release date on PS5. It launches on the 13th February, 2026.

This one has seemed inevitable for quite some time. PS5 age ratings for the game surfaced before it had even launched on Switch 2, Switch, and PC earlier this year, and more recently, the title's PS5 Trophy list was leaked.

As we've reported previously, this hybrid RPG combines exploration, town-building elements, character bonding, and slick action combat. It got really strong reviews on its original platforms, so if you haven't already played it, it'll be one to watch on PS5.

There's no doubt that it'll be releasing during a busy period, however. February's already got Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined, Nioh 3, Romeo Is a Dead Man, Yakuza Kiwami 3, Resident Evil Requiem, and Tales of Berseria Remastered. March is similarly packed, at the time of writing.
