Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven is set to release on the 24th October for both PS5 and PS4, and if you're not quite sure about this completely remade RPG, we'd highly recommend giving this 'Primer' video a watch.

As far as we're concerned, this five-minute overview is a perfect example of how to market an old-school revival. The game's producer, Shinichi Tatsuke, gives us an earnest walkthrough of what the remake's all about, covering the original title's history, how it's been reborn, its main systems, its new features, and what you can expect from the experience in terms of general gameplay. It's just an impressively clear and concise breakdown of the stuff that matters.

Tatsuke also notes that Revenge of the Seven is being developed by the same team that crafted the Trials of Mana remake — which bodes well.

The original Romancing SaGa was ahead of its time in several ways, so we're quite interested in seeing whether this remake resonates with a larger audience here in the West. Are you looking forward to this one? Pass down all of your best abilities in the comments section below.
