Square Enix's Switch release Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven (a 3D remake of the original 1993 role-playing game) has today received a brand new eShop demo.
It's available now and will allow you to transfer your save data over to the full game when it arrives on 24th October 2024.
Here's a bit about it via Gematsu:
"In the demo, players step into the shoes of the Emperor Leon and, with his second son, Prince Gerard, start an epic journey that will span across generations as Leon, Gerard and subsequent emperors contend with the Seven Heroes—once revered heroes who, for reasons unknown, now seek revenge against the world.
"The demo concludes with a battle with Kzinssie, one of the Seven Heroes, setting the stage for the multi-generation story to unfold. As save data from the demo is transferable to the full game, players can seamlessly continue their adventure upon the game’s October 24 launch."

And downloading now….so excited!
Great, weird and underrated game on the Snes. Can't wait to try this one out.
A saga about romance? Not only that, but I assume the revenge is from your seven ex's? I'm in!
Oh my god. I am downloading it right away!!
It looks a lot better than I expected, but again WAY too much focus on breasts. Unnecessary. I dislike it when games do that.
I’ve been playing Saga Scarlet Grace lately.
It’s My first Saga game and I’ve become obsessed and brought most of the other Saga games recently because they were on sale. This game was fully on My radar but the News of a massive focus on breasts has made this My most anticipated game. Free the girls as a feminist liberated lady might say 👍🏻
I've been looking to get into the whole SaGa thing. Only game I properly played was Final Fantasy Adventure, or Mystic Quest as it was named here... I really would love to get into this series properly, but what's a good starting point?
Always happy to see games getting demos and even more so when its save data is transferable - while I doubt I'll be able to play the demo myself considering how busy I am gamingwise, I'm looking forward to playing this when my discounted physical copy arrives and I have time to start it!
@Pillowpants the newest ones (Emerald and Scarlet) are more friendly for newcomers, especially because they explain their mechanics a lot better than the previous ones where everything is either not or poorly explained.
While I'm happy this games get a full remake, I'd rather have had the two missing remasters, especially UnlimiteD which got bashed for no good reasons. It's a really deep and complete game.
"What am I, chopped liver?"
Sold. 😆
this a remake of the 16 bit version of romancing saga 2 already on the switch cant wait to pick it up..
@Astropez Thanks! I'll make sure to check them out
Just finished the demo. A nice slice of gameplay. Apart from the weapon system it seemed a bit simplistic. But it does lay the foundations for some nice combos and strategies. Somewhat hand-holdy, but I did spot that you can customise quest- and map-markers in the options menu.
Sadly the amount of breasts was over-promised. 😋 So that shouldn't deter most people, unless a bit of cleavage is a no-go. Not a thirsty game as far as I can see.
Many people wish we were already living in a fantasy world like this, but we'll never get there if we don't start giving our children names like Kzinssie.
Never thought I am this excited for this game. Romancing SaGa 2 is my favorite of the trilogy and I'm glad they remake it for the better. Would definitely be trying the demo out this weekend.
Hmmmm. There seems to be some disagreement on the breast issue. I don't like mysteries such as this. Only one thing for it... I will have to investigate more. For science!
And I am still amazed to see "What am I, chopped liver?" 😆
Will defo try the demo.!
I may give it a try. I've always admired the Romancing SaGa series from afar but never pulled the trigger. I like the way the 2D one looks, but it looks like this might have enough qol to draw my attention.
