    SaGa: Scarlet Grace (PSV) | Ambitions (PC/PS4/NSW/Android/iOS) - December 3, 2019


    The next game in the SaGa series is a PS Vita title due out in 2015, Square Enix announced during this morning’s SaGa 25th anniversary live stream.

    The news came via a 25th anniversary trailer shown at the end of the stream, showing every SaGa game released up to date, before an “and now—” pops up on screen and teases the PS Vita title with two pieces of artwork.

    Was this the game for the ps1 where the music was great, but the gameplay was absolute shit? i think i remember running into a tower with a giant super early on and got destroyed and that ended my playing of this game.

    The gameboy/SNES SaGa games were the shit. The Ps1 entries weren't so hot though.

    The game will be produced by SaGa series creator Akitoshi Kawazu, with character designs by Tomomi Kobayashi and music by Kenji Ito.

    Square Enix? Vita? Where's the mention that it'll be on smartphones also?

    It was probably one of the Saga frontier games. I don't have confidence the games will be any good. lol the gameplay mechanics are usually wonky and a little unintuitive. imo

    The gameplay will be extremely unintuitive.

    But man will it be pretty, and have awesome music if Kenji Ito's at the helm.

    Naturally I will buy this.

    i don't know, I always liked the SaGa games setup, aside Frontier and Unlimited. I have faith because it's not Final Fantasy.

    Is the thread where we realize, collectively, that SaGa Frontier's OST was fucking amazing?

    Yes.

    Yes it is.

    I still need to go through Minstrel's Song. I WANT to go through Unlimited again, but for people that did it with multiple characters.. I finished it with Ventus. What other characters are actually worth going through as? Think I did half of Laura's, but Jesus, I needed a FAQ just to figure out half of the systems.

    That's definitely not it but man I played this as a kid and loved it. Had one of the most bittersweet endings ever and played better than it looked iirc. All this nostalgia.

    This is what you should be getting a Vita for anyway.

    First Saga for PS1 was one of those games where if you didn't go where you were supposed to you were instantaneously raped.

    With me being the young idiot I was, I made it all the way to the boss of one such area while being super underleveled as fuck.
    Fortunately Red is a goddamn badass and somehow I was able to solo the last half of the boss fight as Alkaiser (after like 15 tries).

    Could be considered 'Romacing SaGa 4,' but contain elements from the other SaGa titles
    When asked about what genre the game is, Kawazu simply states that it’s a “standard RPG,” but that it will continue the series’ trademark of nonlinear gameplay and that the story will have several protagonists in it.

    Regarding just how the character depicted in the first set of revealed concept art is, Kawazu says that he’s “Fire Bringer,” the god of the world in the game.

    Lastly, with regards to the overall feel of the game, Kawazu answers, “In terms of the overall setting, it’s close to something like Romancing SaGa and if you looked at it just through that lens, we could have even called it ‘Romancing SaGa 4.’ On the other hand, there are parts of it that aren’t evocative of the Romancing SaGa games, making it a bit inappropriate to actually call the game that.”
