The stunning Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma: Earth Dancer Limited Edition is currently available for just $67.89, a significant drop from its original $100 price, as part of Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days. This promotion is a rare find, especially considering most retailers sold out of the Earth Dancer Edition months ago. It’s likely to vanish quickly before Amazon’s sale concludes!
For players eyeing the game on the newer Switch 2, an important note: while the Earth Dancer Edition was originally released for the Switch 1, Switch 2 owners can grab a $10 upgrade pack from the eShop. This upgrade path also offers the best value for the standard edition. The Switch 2 standard edition (full game on card) is on sale for $60 (originally $70), meaning the original Switch version, priced at $44, becomes a mere $54 after adding the necessary Switch 2 upgrade.
But the savings don’t stop there! Amazon is also offering fantastic discounts on other titles in the Rune Factory series for Nintendo Switch:
- Rune Factory 3 Special: Now just $16.36 (down from $30)
- Rune Factory 5: Grab it for only $18 (originally $30)
