Lunar Remastered Collection review for Nintendo Switch
Posted on 1 week ago by Elias in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: April 18, 2025
Developer: Ashibi / Game Arts
Publisher: GungHo

I was twelve, sunburned, full of cheap cookies, sugary artificially flavored red drink, and a sense of adventure. The game was Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete. I didn’t know it then, but that disc would become one of the most formative RPG experiences of my awkward little middle school life.

Nightdive, which has brought back a bunch of classic games over the past decade, was hoping to tackle GoldenEye as one of its projects. However, that ultimately didn’t come to be.
