Square Enix has announced that it is bringing two of its classic JRPGs, Legend of Mana and SaGa Frontier, to the PC platform via Steam. The publisher shared the news in a press release published this week, which confirmed that both of these titles have been remastered with optimized visuals and gameplay, as well as new features. Legend of Mana and SaGa Frontier were originally released for the PlayStation in 2000 and 1998 (NA), respectively.
“Legend of Mana will come with remastered visuals, a rearranged soundtrack, and the ‘Ring Ring Land’ mini-game which will be available to the West for the first time,” Square Enix explained in its press release. “During their travels, they’ll encounter a colorful cast of characters, square off against fearsome monsters in real-time combat and explore the vast world of Fa’Diel, all while experiencing Legend of Mana’s timeless story.”
“Players will experience [SaGa Frontier] as one of eight heroes via the Free-Form Scenario System. Each character has their own storyline and goals, exploring the sci-fi fantasy universe known as ‘The Regions’ in different ways while discovering unique worlds, technology, and magic. The remaster will also build upon the original title’s multiple storylines by introducing previously cut content, including Fuse’s main scenario and several new events for fan-favorite character Asellus.”
Legend of Mana will be available digitally for $29.99 on Steam, PlayStation 4, and the Nintendo Switch on June 24. Fans who purchase the game before July 23 will receive an early purchase reward that includes 10 avatars and a custom Legend of Mana theme (PS4) or Legend of Mana wallpaper (PC). SaGa Frontier Remastered will be available for $24.99 on Steam, PlayStation 4, the Nintendo Switch, and iOS and Android mobile devices on April 15.
