Famitsu, the ever-reliable tome of gaming, has two scans for the new video game Rune Factory 2 for the Nintendo DS. Developed by Marvelous Interactive, this sequel the Rune Factory: A Fantasy Harvest Moon has you plant crops, whack monsters, and get the girl at the end of the day.

Our weblator indicates that the key elements found in the prequel, Rune Factory, are still present: capturing animals for food and help in farming, among others. The scans from Famitsu also show new characters as well as new environments.

While we don't have enough information about this great game (which is part of the Harvest Moon video games, by the way) at the moment, do stick around here in QJ as we dig up more details.
