Switch 2 Port
A Nintendo Switch 2 version of Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven, the full 3D remake of the hit 1993 RPG that received critical acclaim upon its initial release last year, is now available for purchase. With faster loading times, improved visuals and a smoother gameplay experience, players can embark on an epic standalone adventure that will span multiple generations as they build and protect their empire while contending with the fearsome Seven Heroes in snappy yet strategic turn-based battles. Players who own the Nintendo Switch version of this title can purchase the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Upgrade Pack to experience this upgraded version.
In Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven, experience a generation-spanning adventure to expand your empire while fending off the threat of the Seven Heroes. With the Free-Form Scenario system, your choices will impact the story’s development, including who inherits the imperial throne with each successive generation. Developed by the team behind the 2020 Trials of Mana remake, this ground-up remake and standalone story features modern visuals, reworked strategic gameplay and various other enhancements that will delight longtime SaGa fans and newcomers alike, including the ability to switch between the classic soundtrack and a newly rearranged version, plus three difficulty modes that can be adjusted at any point. A free demo with transferable data is also available.
