SaGa Series Creator Hints At Possible Remaster, Remake, And New Game

Akitoshi Kuzu (SaGa Series creator) has suggested that the series might get a remake, master, or a new version. 

Erste reported by Kotaku, Kawazu tweetedYesterday’s tweet was to express gratitude for the support of SaGa in 2021. It also teased at what 2022 could bring. According to Google’s translation service, Kawazu’s tweet also reveals some exciting game developments in the works. 

“We will work on various things so that 2022 can also be supported,” Google’s translation of Kawazu’s tweet reads. “We will do our best not only to manage the service but also to remaster, remake, and produce new works so that we can deliver good news to everyone.” 

It’s important to note that Google’s translation service is not always correct, sometimes missing some of the context that might be picked up on through a real translation from a translator, for example. With that being said, it’s tough to take this Google translation word-for-word, but the general gist seems apparent: Kawazu is teasing a remaster, a remake, and something “new.” 

Kawazu has become an executive at Square Enix. But the SaGa series, which he created in 1989 after being a Final Fantasy writer, is his joy and pride. The Final Fantasy Legend in West was originally called the SaGa Game, however it was also known as Makai Toushi SaGa Japan. Kotaku. Since then, more than 15 SaGa games have been released, with 2019’s Imperial SaGa: Eclipse being the most recent in the franchise (if you don’t count SaGa Frontier Remastered, which was released this year). 

Only time will tell if a remake, remaster, and new game are actually on the way, but nonetheless, it’s a good time to be a fan of Kawazu’s work. Read on to find out why you should wait (hopefully).
