Rune Factory 5 Shop and Silo Expansions: Everything unlocked and required to renovate Rigbarth

Rigbarth isn’t complete when you begin your Rune Factory 5 adventure, there’s still plenty to expand and unlock with your shops, house, and farm through Studio Palmo. Expanding the village shops will unlock new stock for sale and more crafting features, while upgrades at the Silo are a must for marriage. You’ll also need to build new structures on the farm, like a Monster Barn, to maximize your profits. 

We’ll explain all available building expansions in Rune Factory 5, including how much they cost and what goodies they’ll provide access to. Prioritize these carefully, as task board requests and other sub-event story elements are gated by the expansions here. 

During the first half of Rune Factory 5, only the first two expansions are available for every building. In the second half, the third expansions become available as Ludmila opens her flower shop.
