You play as the ruler of the kingdom of Avalon in a world where the Seven Heroes do, indeed, return, but resurrected as Demons, bent on World Conquest. Long ago, there were Seven Heroes who saved the world and were prophesized to return one day. It took a long time to get the game, but we finally got it.Ĭoming from the 1990s era of RPGs, here is my review of both the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation Vita versions of Romancing SaGa 2! Story However, one of the older titles recently got a localization via Mobile platforms and was then ported to several current systems, including two handheld consoles that I heavily support on this website. A good third of the franchise never left Japan, including the more recent SaGa: Scarlet Grace, made exclusively for the PS Vita handheld.

The Saga series is a franchise that is not often seen in the Western World. Eight heroes set off on their own journeys, as if guided by the hand of fate.Platform: Nintendo Switch / PlayStation Vitaĭownload: 1.4 GB (Switch) / 383 MB (Vita) The Fatestones lie scattered across the world and the gods of evil are resurgent once more. Now 1000 years have passed since that titanic battle. In ages past a mighty battle rocked this land, when Elore, the king of the gods, fought three malicious deities: Death, Saruin and Schirach.Īfter a long and drawn-out struggle, Death and Schirach were sealed away and rendered powerless, with the final deity Saruin also trapped through the power of the Fatestones and the noble sacrifice of the hero Mirsa. The primordial creator Marda brought forth the land of Mardias. The gods created man and man created stories. This makes it highly recommended for both fans of the original and newcomers to the SaGa series. This remastered edition has evolved in all areas, featuring upgraded HD graphics and numerous enhancements to improve playability. The free scenario system that lets you create your own storyline remains at the core of the game, letting you select one of eight protagonists with completely different origins and backstories, then set off on a unique journey. The original Romancing SaGa -Minstrel Song- included many of the SaGa series trademark elements, such as the Glimmer and Combo mechanics and was considered to be the epitome of the series when it first released.
