News: A surprise announcement from Square Enix at the recent Nintendo Direct should make RPG fans happy.

Square Enix has revealed that Saga Frontier 2 Remastered is now available. Announced during Nintendo’s recent Direct, Saga Frontier 2 Remastered is an enhanced version of the beloved 1999 role playing game. In this game players will experience the intertwined fates of Gustave, a royal heir caught in a struggle for power, and Wil, a fledgling excavator confronting a hidden world-threatening danger. This remaster comes with fully enhanced visuals in high definition, a revamped UI, enhanced gameplay systems, new post-end-game content, and more.

Saga Frontier 2 Remastered Key Features Include:

Fully Enhanced HD Visuals: The game’s signature warm watercolor-style graphics are more defined and vibrant, and original character sprites are upscaled for modern resolutions. New sprites have been prepared for characters who did not have unique sprites in the original game.

Revamped UI: History Choice, chronology, a revamped screen layout and a multitude of other gameplay systems have been reconstructed to facilitate more intuitive and comfortable gameplay.

Brand-New Story Content: Under the supervision of Saga Franchise General Director Akitoshi Kawazu, Benny Matsuyama introduces new story events that provide additional insight into the events of Saga Frontier 2.

New Gameplay Features: Added elements like Parameter Inheritance, postgame content and New Game+ make for an enhanced and expanded gameplay experience.

New Minigame for Western Fans: The excavation minigame, created for the Japan-exclusive PocketStation peripheral for the PlayStation, is playable in the west for the first time as ‘Dig! Dig! Digger’ in Saga Frontier 2 Remastered.

Saga Frontier 2 Remastered is available now for Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4, PC via Steam, iOS and Android. Will you play it?
