Exploring the SaGa Franchise
Recently, Square Enix has been reinvigorating the SaGa series through remasters, remakes, and new entries, such as SaGa Emerald Beyond, which debuted in April. Players can snag great deals on various SaGa titles, with a promotional code offer allowing for a 15% discount on selected games.
The SaGa franchise originated as a spin-off of Final Fantasy but quickly established its unique identity, known for non-linear narratives and intricate character development. In Romancing SaGa 2, players control different characters from a royal family working to protect their empire against looming threats, all while engaging in castle-building mechanics and making decisions that significantly impact the storyline.
With the remake’s enhanced features, now is the perfect opportunity to dive into this beloved classic or revisit it for a fresh narrative experience.
Upcoming Preorders
Fans can also look forward to the forthcoming physical edition of Romancing SaGa: Minstrel Song Remastered International for PS5 and Nintendo Switch. The remastered edition initially launched in 2022 on various platforms and is set for release early next year, though a specific date has yet to be confirmed.
