Square Enix brought the Super Famicom classic Romancing SaGa 2 to Switch today. Check out the RPG below with gameplay footage.

Square Enix has been one of the strongest supporters of Switch in the console’s early lifecycle. Between what’s already out and what’s on the way, the company has a whole lot of love for the platform. Project Octopath Traveler, Dragon Quest XI, Dragon Quest Builders 1 and 2, and Lost Sphear are just a few of the highlights.

There’s a reason why Square Enix is supporting Switch in this way so far. Speaking with MCV, CEO Yosuke Matsuda said that the system “is a very attractive and platform for us.” He also said that Switch is “a unique piece of hardware.”

Square Enix isn’t just about producing new games. The company has expressed interest in revisiting other titles and putting them on the latest consoles, including Switch.

In an interview with MCV, Square Enix CEO Yosuke Matsuda commented on this subject. Instead of merely porting these older games as they were back then, they need to be modernized.

Square Enix is bringing Romancing SaGa 2 soon to Switch – very soon in fact. Just announced yesterday, the game is arriving on December 15.

This isn’t just a standard re-release of Romancing SaGa 2. Some extra bells and whistles will be included.

Update: Square Enix released a trailer for the remaster:


Original: A remaster of the classic SNES JRPG Romancing SaGa 2 is coming to the Switch. Launching worldwide on December 15th, it’s based on the release of the game on mobile platforms from last year, which was the first time the game received an official English translation. The Switch version will feature improved controls.

Update: Bumped to the top. The Lost Sphear demo is live in North America. Also, you can now pre-load the game in North America.


Original: Lost Sphear, Square Enix’ latest RPG for the Switch, has been out in Japan for a couple of months now. A demo was also released for the game on the Japanese eShop back in September. With the game’s Western release on January 23rd rapidly approaching, the demo is now also available on the European Switch eShop. It’ll likely hit the North American eShop soon as well.

Thanks to Bart and chusetto for the tip.

Now that the Lost Sphear demo is available on the European Switch eShop, we’re able to see what it’s like in English. Take a look at some footage below.

To celebrate Lost Sphear’s western demo release, Square Enix has prepared a new trailer. Developer Tokyo RPG Factory has also passed along a message. Both videos can be found below.

Black The Fall is coming to Switch. Rather than having the news revealed through an official announcement or an eShop listing, we’ve actually found out about it through the system’s news feature. The game now has a channel of its own, though no posts have been made just yet.

Black The Fall is a puzzle-platform game that released earlier this year, and some have compared it to Inside – another game planned for Switch. Square Enix published the title and supported it through its Square Enix Collective program.

We have additional details about Black The Fall below, along with a trailer.

Square Enix has announced its lineup for Jump Festa 2018, which includes the Switch version of Dragon Quest Builders. It will be playable at the show in December. Additionally, a trailer and stage show are planned.

The show, taking place on December 16 in Japan, will have the latest information on Dragon Quest Builders for Switch as well as gameplay. Noriyoshi Fujimoto (producer), Takuma Shiraishi (assistant producer), Saito-V (V-Jump editorial department), and MC Ranze Fukushima will be present.
