GrimGrimoire Remaster Comes To The West Next Spring

Before Vanillaware made its name with titles like 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim and Dragon’s Crown, it found early success with a little game called GrimGrimoire. This side-scrolling strategy game was a cult hit in 2007. However, it saw another boost this year when GrimGrimoire OnceMore was launched in Japan in July. Now we know when players in the U.S. and Europe get to experience Lillet’s spellbinding adventure again or for the first time. 

GrimGrimoire OnceMore will be coming to the West in Spring 2023 on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 as well as Switch. Lillet Blan plays the role of a witch in training who goes to the Tower of Silver Star magical school. But things are not going according to plan. It’s up to her to uncover its dark secrets in an adventure that unfolds over a repeating five-day cycle. Though a side-scroller, players battle enemies by summoning and commanding Familiars in real-time strategy battles that unfold in a 2D perspective. 

OnceMore offers HD graphics and a skill tree. It also has an enhanced user interface. 

Fans may remember Odin Sphere making a similar comeback in 2016 with the Leifthrasir edition, so it’s cool to see GrimGrimoire get the same treatment. Are you excited to replay GrimGrimoire? This will be the first time you give it a shot. Please let us know what you think in the comments
