Okay, so this first one seems to be your pretty traditional Harvest Moon box art, showcasing the protagonist over on the right surrounded by a bunch of adorable creatures, and a typical farmyard setting in the background. It’s simple, effective, and just… nice!

Ooh gosh, this is a real vibe, huh? Ditching the cartoon-y aesthetic for a slightly more realistic take, we’ve got a lovely landscape image of a farmer with his trusty doggy along with a cow and a horse. The figures look almost silhouetted against the gorgeous moonlight, and we love the blue/purple gradient used for the night sky.

Japan’s approach is similar to North America’s, utilising the same main image of the protagonist and surrounding animals, albeit flipped. The portrait orientation means this can be placed front and centre with the game’s title sitting just above. The background is gorgeous too! Man, this will be a tough one…
