Grandia 2 HD Steam release coming

Grandia 2 HD Steam release is a thing! So says GungHo who recently polled the internet in a bid to see which game they should re-release. Thankfully Grandia 2 won said poll by a mile or three. I say ‘thankfully’ because, frankly, Grandia 2 is one of my favourite JRPGs of all time. 

 

Why?

 

Well, while it’s a fairly simplistic and linear experience, the characters are awesome, it has a wonderfully chunky and colourful aesthtetic and arguably the best battle system of any JRPG ever.

 

Actually, no ‘arguably’ about it – ‘definitely’ the best battle system of any JRPG ever. It also had a really beautiful soundtrack – so that’s an added bonus as well.

Basically, if you never played it, well, there’s no excuse now.

 

Me? I’ve played through it three times already, so I’ll probably buy it, play again for a few hours to soak in some of the original feels, and then it will sit forever in my Steam library alongside Valkyria Chronicles.

 

That’s not to say I don’t love it – I do, but you know, let’s be realistic about this.

 

Why not treat yourself to one of my favourite bits of music from the game while you’re here. Maybe push your face up against that screenshot above and pretend you’re actually ‘there’. That is what I’m doing right now.

 

Spread the love!
