WayForward, the studio behind Shantae, just announced that it’s bringing back the GBA game Sigma Star Saga. It launches in 2025.
Sigma Star Saga is making its return after twenty years. WayForward isn’t confirming Switch support just yet, but given the studio’s output, that’s practically a lock.
Sigma Star Saga is a sci-fi adventure title featuring 2D space shooter and RPG elements. The re-release is being built with Limited Run Games’ Carbon Engine.
In a recent video, Okami director Hideki Kamiya and environment artist Ikumi Nakamura. The two spoke about various topics, including the team behind the game and the initial poor sales.
According to Kamiya, Okami was intended to feature “a dream team” of developers. However, he actually believes that the group was ultimately “weak”, before adding how there “was a very drastic contrast within.”
Kamiya stated:
The second big update for Shiren the Wanderer: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island was just made available, and it’s highlighted by new playable character Tatsumi Shiren.
That’s not all to the update. Also included are more dungeon floors for deeper exploration, a “Basic Training” mode, and more.
