By Affection is in the atmosphere

Struggling to choose who to pursue romantically in Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma? Well, worry not, as Marvelous has a resolution for you — timeline and world exploring (thanks Siliconera!).
No, this isn’t a prank; the official Rune Factory PR account declared that you can date and wed multiple characters in the forthcoming Rune Factory game by utilizing the “Technique to Traverse Between Worlds”. The mechanism doesn’t have a title in English as of now.
This feature allows you to leap into an alternate timeline without repercussions, meaning your family, partner, and everything else stays intact in the actual world. You can maintain up to 30 different timelines simultaneously, which is more than sufficient to explore all 12 romantic options in the main game. Phew!
Other analogous games often involve repercussions for attempting to woo multiple characters, or simply won’t permit it without terminating your current relationships.
Some installments, such as Rune Factory 2, include rival marriages, but this kind of freedom is a rare occurrence. We’ve encountered the expression “interdimensional adultery” being tossed around and, um… yeah?
So, which romance option does the producer favor in Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma? Well, he adores all of them — which is fortunate since you can kiss all of them!
Are you acquiring Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma for Switch or Switch 2? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
