>Now, however, sources have confirmed that the first Baten Kaitos game is getting a remake exclusively for the Nintendo Switch. eXputer has seen graphical evidence of the title under development but is unable to share any of it publicly at this moment in time.
>Sources have also said that the release date for this remake is planned to be sometime in the summer of 2023 and that a reveal is possible during this year’s E3.
>Moreover, the remake is in the works by the game’s original developer Monolith Soft — a Nintendo-owned company — right alongside Bandai Namco. Additionally, Nintendo is involved in the new remake and will work with the two developers to oversee the title’s development.
The same website leaked Kojima’s “Overdose” footage.
As usual it’s a rumor so don’t take it as gospel.

Ho. lee. Shi.
A step closer to a Xenosaga trilogy remaster. Please Bamco…
Oh man. This takes me back. Hopefully they remake the prequel too if the rumour is true.
I hope so, as I missed out first time around.
As much as I’d like it, I don’t buy it. Monolith Soft was way too busy last year with XC3’s DLC, still working on TLOZ: Tears of the Kingdom (Which is probably going to have updates and DLC), supporting other Nintendo’s first parties like Splatoon 3 (Which is also getting a new Single Player DLC). How they had time and resources for this would be beyond my comprehension. Unless they are some kind of developer demi-gods ~~Which OK, they kind of are at this point~~.
But if they make it happen, I hope they re-dub it because the voice acting in the original was dreadful.

A couple of years back, there were job posting from monolith that they were recruiting for an unnamed medieval/fantasy rpg project, and with it was attached a piece of environmental concept art. I wonder what came of that and if it could be related.
This is AMAZING news! I loved BK on the GameCube, and while Xenoblade Chronicles has done a really great job at scratching the same itch, the original is just such a great game to get on the Switch.
Let it come with Origins PLEASE
I love this game so much
Or at least release them both
Please be true. Anything that will ultimately lead to the sequel finally being released in Europe.
!!
P P Hard
I loved the first one. And the second never got released in europe iirc
Omg one my favourite games on gamecube! Excellent game!
You had my interest but now you have my attention
I never did get around to finishing this on the Gamecube -life interfered- but I remember enjoying it a lot. Here’s hoping it’s real.
Big if true, these two games were so unique and beautiful. I loved the card battle system.
Day one buy.
I will be quite surprised if this is true. Be a bonus if the prequel comes with it.
I did not know this was a thing. I still own it on GameCube but that game is an absolute work of art.
Could be true considering Bandai namco was hiring for a 3d game published by Nintendo last year.
Awesome, I’d love to see this. Game is pricey these days, and I’ve always loved the way this world looks.
OMG yes!!!!!! One of my favorites
Hope this is true, i would love to replay it again
Don’t fucking give me hope. Don’t you dare.
No game other than Skies of Arcadia do I want remade as much as this. It’s all I ever talk about for my favorite game no one has heard of.
DONT BE FAKE PLEASE DIVINE CHILD
This is amazing. I’m so excited to play all these old school jrpgs on switch. Persona 3 & 4 this week, final fantasy pixel remasters and suikoden 1&2 all this year. And now BK!? Sign me up!
Please God be true. Please
Everyone here seems extremely hyped, I’ve never heard of this.
What is this game?
No frickin’ way!
I hope this means they also bring over the sequel (or was it a prequel?) that was never released in Europe.
Thank god Monolith and Nintendo are involved because I don’t trust Namco to release unbroken games on Switch at this point in its life cycle.
Holy fucking shit, I love this game!!! It was hands down one of my favourite JRPG on par with Golden Sun (for me).
That soundtrack, that battle system, that story.
Now as long as they give us the Japanese voices, I’ll preorder the preorder. If not, I’ll just preorder it. I hope it’s true.
Bittersweet for me…bonded discussing this game aeons ago with one of my dearest friends who took his life in 2020. If true I gotta play the shit out of this game for the both of us. ❤️
Crisis Core. Megaman Battle Network Collection. Tales of Symphonia. Now Baten Kaitos? I am loving getting to relive my childhood through these remakes. I love Baten Kaitos, I was absolutely furious when my GC copy stopped working
Edit: rumors won’t stop me from dreaming
The twist in this game was so stunning. Very, very rarely have I been so surprised. And UPSET.
I’m down to try it. Heard it wasn’t bad and I fucking love MonolithSoft so any chance to try their older games I’ll take.
