Garden Story News

Ever since our lil grape’s debut in Garden Story, we’ve been getting TONS of requests to make a plushie. Maybe it’s something about Concord’s captivating smile. Well, whatever it is, we couldn’t agree more and we are finally making it happen!



Everybody’s favorite grape is now a plushie and we can’t contain our excitement! We are teaming up with Makeship to bring this perfectly round, soft, and adorable Concord plushie to life.



[h3]The campaign kicks off on Tuesday, November 22nd at 12am GMT, and it is only available for a very limited time! [/h3]

Like all Makeship campaigns, Concord plushies will only be produced if we reach our minimum funding goal. Friends and guardians of the Grove, let’s make this happen!

Look out Seattle... we’re pulling out all the stops for our biggest booth yet!

For this year's PAX West, we will have demo stations for Garden Story, Floppy Knights and The World Next Door. Come say hi to our team and pick up some limited edition merch. We'll be selling enamel pins and T-shirts, including this collaboration with artist infinitebrians:



It’s been a while since we last went to a convention, so we're excited to (safely) hang out with everyone again! Our staff will be wearing masks and hand sanitizer will be available at all of our demo stations.

[h3]Can’t make it to PAX? All merch is available on our website right now! [/h3]

Pre-orders are scheduled to ship out in September. International shipping is available.


Let us know if you're going to PAX West, we'd love to meet ya!

Now, in July 2022, we're seeing Microsoft do it again. This time, the game that's arriving for Xbox and PC players is Garden Story, a very chill game set in a cozy little village that sees you arrive as the newest guardian of the Grove, whose duty it is rebuild the village and uncover the story of its hidden past. It comes to the service on July 12.

The game draws on many genres – you'll find little nods towards farming sims, dungeon crawlers, even hardcore action-RPGs in there – but, ultimately, the title stands on its own to be a pretty unique title. You'll need to explore the Grove throughout the four seasons, each time of year bringing in its own problems and benefits. You'll complete daily requests to defend, restore, and improve the town, and as you progress you'll unlock memories that allow the main character, Concord the grape, to harness the power of their predecessors.

Our pals at Rock, Paper, Shotgun have outlined the game's nature in a review from last year:
