Rune Factory 4 Has Been Cancelled in Europe

Rune Factory 4 Has Been Cancelled in Europe on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

MarvelousAQL EU has announced that Rune Factory 4's European release has been cancelled. This is likely tied to the recent closure of developer Neverland, meaning the series' future is currently up in the air. What is disappointing is that the US release could not simply be released, even just via eShop.

In a Press statement, MarvelousAQL said the following:

We regret to inform you that the European release of Rune Factory 4 for Nintendo 3DS has been cancelled. While MarvelousAQL has made every effort to secure the title's release for this territory, it is, unfortunately, not possible to do so at this time.

MAQL and MAQL Europe would like to thank everyone for their support and enthusiasm for their European releases. Please look forward to announcements on new MAQL titles over the coming months.


No doubt many readers were looking forward to this farming/rpg hybrid, which is said to be the best in the series. A sad day indeed!

Typical, I finally decide to try the series with this entry and it gets bloody canceled. What a shame with such a well-loved franchise. Smilie

Very sad news. Smilie I've only played Rune Factory Frontier on Wii and would have loved to get another RF on a handheld where it would be more convenient to play but that's not happening anymore...

Terrible news from a useless publisher I was regularly visiting their site waiting for news after i read there was going to be arelease date set to be announced.  Lucky for me I have a USA 3DS .  
  I have sent them an Email of Complaint, and a eShop release would NOT soften the blow for me.
