“One of the best open ended JRPG, loved the open world and freedom to chose, multiple playthroughs for different outcomes, well optimized, enjoyed the grind and different classes. Brilliant remake and amazing classic…”

“I slept on this game until i tried and demo and whooooweeee. I cant wait for the remake of the 3rd. Music is good, difficulty is good, story is good. All good!”

“If you like challenging turned based J-RPGS pick this game up. It won't disappoint you. Never even heard of this series and I just randomly came across this game. It's 100% worth it. I hope they make more remakes of…”

“Good enough game, but the main niche game mechanic makes no sense. I have 2 time sensitive missions, I complete one and then I'm forced to ignore the other for OVER A CENTURY?!? This happens over and over. Also, there's…”
“Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven is actually a very impressive remake, when considering it exists off the back of a 30+ year old game. I had never played the original, but I'd watched longplays of it because I was…”
“This is actually a pretty good game. It has its flaws. Some systems I wish they went a different direction with but it is absolutely worth a play.”

“I didn't finish this game because it's just not for me. But I do recommend it because it is a solid JRPG and I recognize its merits. The combat system is engaging and the generational story is an interesting idea. There are no bugs I encountered while playing and no instability.…”
— a player, Steam review · 44 hrs played“I recommend a guide. Overall huge replayability here. There are a few things you can miss without the guide. But even then it's not a huge game breaking loss if you do.”
— a player, Steam review · 64 hrs played“It may just be both the best and worst introduction to the series. It has never been easier to understand the multitude of system SaGa offers, it's beatiful to look at, easy to play and get lost in the world and most of the new additions are good. It truly is what a remake is…”
