A semi-surprise announcement from Square Enix during this morning’s Switch 1 Nintendo Direct was a remaster of SaGa Frontier 2. Originally released for the original PlayStation, SaGa Frontier 2 was the eighth SaGa game and, obviously, second in the Frontier sub-series on PlayStation. SaGa Frontier 2 is probably lesser-known, having released late in the PlayStation’s lifecycle, just a few months before the PlayStation 2.



The new version, despite being announced in the Nintendo Direct, is being released today for pretty much every available gaming device under the sun: Switch, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, Steam, iOS, and Android (sorry, Xboxers).

It doesn’t appear that there’s been a major graphical overhaul, though the graphics have been made to support HD and widescreen displays. However, there have been additions to the plot to “uncover truths from the original,” and new QoL updates, New Game +, minigame content and post-game challenge battles added as well.

Strangely, the store listings for the game have not been published yet for Nintendo, Steam, or iOS as I write this, so I’m not sure when exactly the game is releasing or what the price point will be. SaGa Frontier Remaster is currently listed at $24.99.
