Romancing SaGa 2 Remake's Overview Video Is How All RPG Revivals Should Be Marketed | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven is set to release on the 24th October for both PS5 and PS4, and if you're not quite sure about this completely remade RPG, we'd highly recommend giving this 'Primer' video a watch.

As far as we're concerned, this five-minute overview is a perfect example of how to market an old-school revival. The game's producer, Shinichi Tatsuke, gives us an earnest walkthrough of what the remake's all about, covering the original title's history, how it's been reborn, its main systems, its new features, and what you can expect from the experience in terms of general gameplay. It's just an impressively clear and concise breakdown of the stuff that matters.

Tatsuke also notes that Revenge of the Seven is being developed by the same team that crafted the Trials of Mana remake — which bodes well.

The original Romancing SaGa was ahead of its time in several ways, so we're quite interested in seeing whether this remake resonates with a larger audience here in the West. Are you looking forward to this one? Pass down all of your best abilities in the comments section below.

Robert (or Rob if you're lazy) is an assistant editor of Push Square, and has been a fan of PlayStation since the 90s, when Tekken 2 introduced him to the incredible world of video games. He still takes his fighting games seriously, but RPGs are his true passion. The Witcher, Persona, Dragon Quest, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, Trails, Tales — he's played 'em all. A little too much, some might say.

If Concord had this kind of introductory video, it would stil be alive

Hats off to them for that video, it's clear & concise. Told me almost everything I needed to know, especially that you don't need to play Romancing SaGa 1 first, as they are separate games.

its pretty cool these games get a new life with a fresh look. hopefully people give it a chance. maybe we'll get a new game.

@Czar_Khastik You mean it might of lasted 3 weeks instead of 2?

Actually looking forward to this,
