The remaster shares the 1993 version's narrative. However, it will be returning with ugraded graphics for modern day PCs. The updates will also include updated audio, new character classes, and new dungeons. There will also be a new game plus feature that includes a brand new content.
The new game plus feature ensures that even the veterans of "Romancing Saga" will get some new items to play with — new content and battles to experience out of the PC version's release.
The game takes place at the end of a grueling war after the Fatestones were scattered across the world. The player will take control of eight various characters from different parts of the globe. Each of these characters has their own story and depending on the players' actions, it will affect the overarching plot of the game. Aside from the main story, players could also recruit NPCs and complete side quests.
