SaGa Frontier 2 Remastered revitalizes a cult classic with stunning visual preservation and crucial quality-of-life upgrades. While its uneven gameplay systems show their age, the game's breathtaking watercolor aesthetic and ambitious dual-narrative structure remain uniquely captivating.
Console Creatures writes, "SaGa Frontier 2 Remastered brings another excellent cult classic to modern audiences."
So glad this came out! Really hoping Square will put up the entire Squaresoft PS1 library on current-gen.
"SaGa Frontier 2 Remastered is a solid port of a great JRPG from more than two decades ago. It keeps what was special about the original — the story and the characters — and adds to it with new plot elements. While we weren’t in love with the combat mechanics or the exploration puzzles, they don’t get in the way of a great story. Just like we don’t love everything about our family, we could overlook the game’s shortcomings to focus on what made it memorable." - Trent Cannon | NintendoLife
