Star Ocean: The Second Story R reveals physical release, collector’s edition

Square Enix has confirmed that Star Ocean: The Second Story R will have a physical release, including a collector’s edition.

The collector’s edition includes a copy of the game, goods box, original soundtrack, art book, and mini acrylic stand collection box. This will be a Square Enix store exclusive. Note that the game is not packed inside the collector’s edition goods box, but will be shipped together.

You’ll get a few pre-order bonuses for the Star Ocean: The Second Story R physical release as well. Players will receive the Pangalactic Federation Longsword, Forest Knuckles, set of recovery items (x20 Mixed berries + x20 Resurrection Potion), and a Sunrise Ring. Also, those who pre-order either version from the Square Enix store will be given the bonus Prism Badge that can be equipped by all characters as a bonus. This hides seven radiant colors and increases stamina by 20.

Star Ocean: The Second Story R launches for Switch on November 2, 2023, and you can pre-order both the standard physical version and collector’s edition for Switch from the Square Enix store here.
