Marking the 1993 RPG’s debut in western markets more than 20 years after its Japanese launch, Square Enix have confirmed that Romancing SaGa 2 is now available for purchase on iOS (via App Store) and Android (via Google Play) devices.

Following similar smartphone ports for the Final Fantasy series, this remastered version maintains the feel of the original release, but also comes with updated visuals and optimised touchscreen controls. This version also comes with new classes, original dungeons and a “New Game+” function which will allow players  to carry over character attributes and items into a brand new game, enabling them to enjoy the story and obtain items they may have missed, or save lands and companions that were sacrificed originally.

Official Blurb on Romancing SaGa 2

The epic tale of Romancing SaGa 2 spans multiple generations of rulers of the Vareness Empire, fighting to bring an end to a brutal war across the ages. Players play as of a series of royal rulers in a valiant struggle against the Seven Heroes.

Romancing SaGa 2 is one of the many titles in the lauded SaGa roleplaying game series. In this popular entry, released for the Super Famicom in Japanese only in 1993 and boasting sales in excess of one million copies, the player’s struggle spans multiple generations as he assumes the role of a series of rulers of the Varennes Empire in a valiant struggle against the Seven Heroes. A free scenario system—a hallmark of the SaGa series—enables the player to take command of a variety of protagonists along the line of imperial succession and experience the history of a nation as it grows and changes. This freedom of choice provides a compelling narrative that served as the cornerstone of the title’s success on its initial release.
