The verified update
Yes. The official product metadata classifies Harvest Moon: Echoes of Teradea as “Simulation / Farming.”
The evidence was checked against Natsume Store product listing and is current to 2026-07-31. The date attached to the underlying source is 2026-07-31.
What the source establishes
- The label appears next to release date and player count
- the description also covers farming
- open-world exploration and relationships expand the feature mix.
Why it matters
Use Simulation/Farming as the first-party category while describing adventure systems separately.
That distinction helps players make a release, platform, route, story, or purchase decision using the narrow fact actually supported by the source.
The remaining boundary
A store genre field is not a complete list of every mechanic or platform tag.
Any later change should be dated and linked to a new first-party notice rather than silently overwriting the historical source.
