Earlier this year, on April 15, a remaster of Square Enix’s SaGa Frontier was released on mobile devices, PC, Playstation 4, and Nintendo Switch. The game was originally released for Playstation 1 in Japan in 1997, followed by a North American launch in 1998. Square Enix’s game remaster is obviously more available on platforms than the original, and according to the company, sales. are doing well.
RPG Site spoke to SaGa series creator Akitoshi Kawazu, as well as SaGa producers Masanori Ichikawa and Hiroyuki Miura. Miura says that “one thing that was particularly unexpected was the number of Steam sales, which were more than we expected, and there are more Steam players than we expected. Comparing across the board, however, the Switch version produced the most sales, which were much higher than we expected ”.
With this commercial success, there has been speculation about other game remasters in the series. When asked about this, Kawazu only said that “there are probably some titles that we really need to look at redesigning content before they can be re-released, like Unlimited SaGa.”
