Bandai Namco has announced the release date for Baten Kaitos 1 & 2 Remaster.
The game has been confirmed for a September 14 release in both Japan and Southeast Asia.
Although European and North American dates have yet to be confirmed, announcements appear to be imminent.
Bandai Namco almost always releases games in Asia, Europe and North America on the same day, and its Southeast Asia trailer shows footage of the game running in English, suggesting September 14 is also likely to be the western release date.
The trailer shows a number of new features present in the HD Remasters, including multiple ways to help the player get through the game quicker.
These include an Instant KO option which lets players defeat the enemy with a single attack, the ability to increase game and battle speed up to 300%, and a No Encounters option to avoid random battles when grinding isn’t needed.
Originally announced in February during a Nintendo Direct presentation, Baten Kaitos 1 & 2 HD Remaster contains remasters of both games in one package.
Get ready to indulge in nostalgia with this remastered collection of your beloved RPGs — Baten Kaitos Ⅰ & Ⅱ HD Remaster comes to you soon on the Nintendo Switch on 14 September 2023.
