    Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven Interview - Talking remaking a niche classic with Shinichi Tatsuke

    For us here at RPG Site, what was perhaps the biggest surprise of the June 2024 Nintendo Direct was the announcement of a full remake of Romancing SaGa 2, called Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven. As a fan of the SaGa series, including the incredibly unique and incredibly underrated Romancing SaGa 2, this unexpected new version has me very curious about how it will shape up. Josh's preview from his hands-on opportunity at PAX West (and Cullen's from the newly-announced demo) has me even more eager for this great-looking remake.

    RPG Site: How did the decision come about to remake Romancing SaGa 2, of all SaGa games?

    Shinichi Tatsuke, Producer: To discuss the timeline of events on how the remake of Romancing SaGa 2 happened ... As you know, back in 2020 I was involved with the remake of the Trials of Mana. After that, the team and I were considering which title we should work on next. That was when the SaGa team approached me and asked me if I wanted to join the team for Romancing SaGa 2 remake. And that's how I got involved with the project.

    So, to answer your question on 'why' we chose Romancing SaGa 2 out of all the SaGa titles.. the SaGa team has a goal of expanding the series to to wider audiences around the globe, not just in Japan. We wanted to make the series bigger, and we wanted to make a remake, just like we did for Trials of Mana, which is generally the background as to how this project happened. The reason why we chose Romancing SaGa 2 is that we already created a remake of Romancing SaGa 1 called Romancing SaGa: Minstrel Song, which was originally released in 2006 and received a recent remaster. However, we hadn't done any remakes since then, so we figured that it was a good time to pick up on that again and make another remake for the SaGa series.
