Harvestella details Shatolla, Heine and Emo, Mechanic and Woglinde jobs, more

Square Enix has provided more information about Harvestella today, covering aspects such as the summer location Shatolla, characters Heine and Emo, Mechanic and Woglinde jobs, and more. Alongside that, a new set of screenshots have been provided.

Summer Location: Shatolla

Welcome to the seaside town of Shatolla.

Many of the residents here support themselves through fishing.

There is a large tavern in the center of town. Fishers who have finished a hard day’s work gather here to drink and sing together.

Ever since the change in the Seaslight, giant bubbles have been appearing on the seas by Shatolla. People call these the Summer Bulla.

At the same time, a whispered rumor begins to spread amongst the fishing community about the sea witch, Lorelei. They say her singing voice can drag ships to the bottom of the ocean.

In the tavern, a singer known as Emo tries to bring courage and cheer to the fishers.

The diva of Shatolla wants to travel to the Seaslight for some reason. Although it doesn’t seem like she can tell anyone why…

Your journey will take you into the dangerous Coral Shrine!

Characters

Next, allow us to show you a couple of the characters you’ll meet in Shatolla: Heine and Emo.

Heine

Heine is an inventor with an atelier in Shatolla. He’s a young man who spends his days entirely absorbed in creating inventions. Everyone treats him as a bit of an eccentric.

A dandy and ladies’ man, he’s quick to start flirting with women.

Emo

Emo is the diva of the tavern in Shatolla.

She seems to have a somewhat otherworldly air about her…

Adventure: new jobs revealed

Jobs determine your weapon and abilities in battle. You can equip many different jobs in Harvestella, such as the previously revealed Fighter, Mage, and Shadow Walker.

Adventure: Skills

Each job has its own unique skills, which you can obtain from its Skill Board.

Some skills can be performed in battle while others take effect simply by being acquired.

JP (Job Points) are required to obtain skills, and are gained by defeating enemies in battle.
You’ll gradually unlock more and more panels and obtain skills that grant all kinds of effects!

Daily Life: Summer Produce

That’s enough about battles and action – let’s talk about food!

While some produce can be grown and harvested all year round, some fruit and veg can only be grown during a particular season.

Daily life: Waterside and cave biomes

If you’ve played the Harvestella demo, you’ll have seen the field outside the protagonist’s home. That’s not the only place to grow crops, however – there are fields in special environments too! There are some crops that can only grow in these environments.

Waterside biome

Here we see an irrigated field full of water.
Sweet crops grow well in this biome.

Cave biome

Spices and other seasonings grow well in the dry ground of caves.

Daily Life: Renovation

The Renovator in Lethe can help you to improve many aspects of your daily life.

For example, they can expand your field, build or animal enclosures, or construct a kitchen counter to allow you to cook.

Animal Enclosures

Having an animal enclosure built will allow you to rear livestock.

You can increase the number of livestock you can keep by building more animal pens.
