Star Ocean 2 Remake announced!

Oh snaparoni! Never played the original so I’m excited about this. What about you, SW? Also, did Square just screw Xbox over again??

Played the original and love the game. May check this out on switch.

Tried one of the SO games, pretty sure it was on PS2. Couldn't get into it. This was before I completely fell out with JRPGs, just didn't find anything about it appealing.

Played a few Star Ocean games here and there and do enjoy them. Not sure if I played this one or not but am definitely interested in this new version.

Odd that Xbox got the new Star Ocean game last year.😑

Play it on your PC.

Looks interesting. Added to the ol wishlist. I'm a bit JRPGd out at the moment though.

Why did they stick with 16 bit pixels art?

Oh, now this is badass. I can get behind this one. Old school Star Ocean is the shit.

Best game of the series, but not the one that needed another remake (poor forgotten Til’ the End of Time). The juxtaposition of the originalish sprites and the much higher quality backgrounds and effects looks very odd and kind of unattractive. Rereleasing the PSP remake with minor improvements would have been perfectly fine, IMO. Good to see it coming to PC though.

I’ll keep an eye on it

I never had time to complete the second game, but I really enjoyed what I played back in the day. I will definitely check this out.

I'm impressed. I've never played a Star Ocean game before, but I may give this one a shot.

Cool! Star Ocean 2 is the best in the series. The later SO games failed to live up to SO2.

That must've been SO3: Till the End of Time. I never completed that game either, and found it a disappointment compared to SO2. The best one in the series is SO2, which is what this remake is based on.
