    I looked away for a moment and came back to think it was a remake of a Tales game lol. Oh well still looks cool.

  2. Captain_CatDad

    Daaaaaamn that looks amazing and brings back so many memories

  3. my-work-acct

    Very surprised and VERY excited for this. Completely out of left field remake for a personal favorite ’90s JRPG.

  4. Fearless_Freya

    About the only thing that really interested me.

  5. -Cloudsmith-

    This is so freaking exciting.

    I feel like people complain that we get too much JRPG stuff in every Direct, but as a JRPG fan, I’m honestly almost never excited about the stuff they announce.

    This Direct was just nonstop hype for me. New Dragon Quest Monsters, Super Mario RPG remake, and now this gorgeous remake of my favorite Star Ocean game. And they all have actual release dates coming out this year. Crazy.

    This was just such a great direct for me, I feel like I’ll be smiling all week.

    This is a day 1 purchase unless it has performance issues like the remaster of tales of .

  7. The_KAZ3

    Need more of these 3D/2D/HD games, possible chrono trigger?

  8. TiredLittleEarthling

    One of the BEST RPG games ever (and the only good Star Ocean entry tbh 👀). I’m definitely picking this up!

  9. LordScyther998

    Never played a Star Ocean before but I love the style of this game. Definitely day 1 buy

  10. Special-Sock-21

    One of my favourite all time games and RPGs! Back in the day I rented this enough times to purchase it twice. Looking forward to getting this.

  11. yellernaner

    the character portrait art is stunning.

  12. ArcadianBlueRogue

    Whoa nelly, I doubted it but whoa nelly

  13. Answerofduty

    I don’t know anything about Star Ocean, but this looks sick.

  14. Grace_Omega

    Never played a Star Ocean game but this looks dope as fuck

  15. Gen_X_Gamer

    Day 1 physical pre-order. Can’t wait!

  16. -dmpunk-

    Looks absolutely beautiful. The character portraits are actually stunning.

  17. Loved this game when I was younger, day one purchase for me

  18. Vetches1

    Just curious, for those who’ve played the original, does it seem like playing this remake is the de facto way to experience the game? Or would there be any benefit in playing the original?

  19. Finarion

    Haven’t played this one, but I played the remake of the first game and enjoyed it a lot so I’ll pick this one up too. I’m excited to give it a go.

  20. SpectrumWoes

    This is probably the only title in the whole direct I was interested in

  21. I_got_shmooves

    Bro, this and Super Mario RPG? What year is it?

  22. BillyLuna

    I’ve heard good things about it. Excited for an excuse to play it!

  23. abolishpmo

    Shedding actual tears rn holy fucking shit! Cannot wait for this to come out!

  24. Versucher42

    This was honestly the only thing in the Direct that I had much interest in. The graphic style here is really cool, and I’ve always wanted to play this game anyway.

  25. I’ve been waiting 4 years for this. Ever since Star Ocean 1 got ported to Switch (even if that version was the PSP remake).

  26. stileshasbadjuju

    How is this game? I don’t really like real time combat but everything else looks cool, really love the art style.

  27. houstonjmb

    Man I really wanted to play this game and now they announced this. Super excited. Who knows, maybe we’ll get a Xenogears remake in the same vein?

  28. Super excited for this, absolutely loved the game on ps1. Something feels off about the game world art though. I like HD2D but this seems off.

  29. DoombotBL

    FUCKING FINALLY

    I still have the original PS1 game but playing this with improved visuals is going to be a treat.

  30. JudgeHoIden

    The original was the best RPG of the PS1 era, I hope this does it justice. RPG fans who missed the original owe it to themselves to play this.

  31. NukaCola_Noir

    This was one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITE GAMES! I’m so hyped for everything they’re bringing back!

  32. Drakeem1221

    Visuals are stunning. Never played a Star Ocean game but it looks like it’s time to start.

  33. Donny_Canceliano

    As someone who wasn’t alive or playing games when a lot of these were released, I know a lot of diehards disagree with me, but I personally feel as though HD-2Ds are objectively better.

    To the point where I don’t even give upres remasters a try Cough FF pixel remasters Cough. If you want me to play a pixel jrpg, hd-2d it and I’ll most likely beat it. Shit is beautiful.

  34. OrganicWeed765

    The things I’d do to see Pokemon BW & B2W2 remakes made by Square Enix

  35. VidGamrJ

    Played this on PlayStation back in the day, wouldn’t mind revisiting it.

  36. Honestly Square has caught lightning in a bottle with their HD 2D art style. This looks great, never played a single Star Ocean game but will probably pick this up.

  37. This and Super Mario RPG are 2 of my favorite games of all time. I put so many hours into each of them.

    This is amazing

  38. ollielite

    Is this a sequel? Do I need to know the first one?

  39. My god 90’s RPG fans are eating good tonight. I thought we couldn’t get better than the Mario RPG reveal but here we are.

  40. Mister_Dummy

    When Switch remakes for old games began to be a common thing a few years ago, I told myself that if there was ONE game I would love to see as a remake, it would be this one.

    I can’t believe it actually happened, after all this time. I have no words for what I just witnessed. This announcement gave me a hype like I haven’t had for a very long while.

    This is unbelievable. I am so overjoyed *_*

  41. BezierBike

    Guys, legit, this is one of the best JRPGs ever. Buy it. Play as Rena so you can use Dias. Just trust me.
