The Legend of Legacy

Earlier today, Atlus announced that The Legend of Legacy is coming stateside this fall. With that, pre-orders for the game are starting to open.

You can reserve the game on GameStop here. As other retailers begin taking pre-orders, we’ll update this post, and we’ll add them to our weekly pre-order roundup.

Atlus has officially announced that the company is bringing The Legend of Legacy to the west. In North America, the game is due out this fall.


Continue on below for some screenshots from The Legend of Legacy. You’ll also find a comprehensive overview after the break.

The Legend of Legacy appears to be coming west. During the latest Shin Megami Tensei Network podcast, Atlus PR manager John Hardin apparently let it slip that the RPG is being localized.

Hardin said:

We did announce The Legend of Legacy is coming over here, and we have another one in the can too that I can’t talk about just yet. But another really niche Japanese game that actually isn’t out yet, we’re bringing that over for the 3DS later this year. What could it be?

Regarding the other mystery 3DS title, it’s possible that Hardin may have been referring to Stella Glow. Some people are speculating that he may have forgotten which of those two 3DS games Atlus had already announced. Stella Glow was confirmed for the west just over a month ago, while The Legend of Legacy still hasn’t been officially announced for North America and Europe. That could be changing soon.

The Legend of Legacy ended up selling 53,974 copies in its first week, according to Media Create. It’s now been made known that the game sold through 83 percent of its initial shipment. That made The Legend of Legacy tough to find at retail.

Retailers told Media Create that The Legend of Legacy mainly sold to fans of the SaGa series. In the past, FuRyu heavily promoted how the game was made by Square Enix staff including those who worked on SaGa.

Thanks to the latest Media Create report, it’s been confirmed that The Legend of Legacy sold 53,974 copies in its first week at Japanese retail. It turns out that the title is FuRyu’s best-selling game at launch by quite a large margin.

Here’s a look at how The Legend of Legacy stacks up to FuRyu’s previous releases:

(2011) Unchained Blades [PSP] – 18,256
(2011) Unchained Blades [3DS] – 5,592
(2011) Tsuku Monogatari [PSP] – 13,329
(2012) Unchained Blades Exxiv [PSP] – 6,793
(2012) Unchained Blades Exxiv [3DS] – 6,645
(2014) Lost Dimension [PSV] – 3,868

The Legend of Legacy certainly did well given that its a new IP, and comes from a small publisher!

Due to Twitch’s auto-play, we’re placing this one after the break.
