Here is a description of the game, via Square Enix:
Set in a world caught in a devastating cosmic cycle known as the Rise of Morastrum, which occurs once every 300 years and claims the life of everyone born that year except a single survivor known as the Child of Destiny, players will embark as one of eight heroes bound by fate. A little over a dozen years after the last disaster, the Four Sinistrals have returned, seeking to reopen the Abyss Gates and bring ruin to the world. On their journey to save the world, players can choose which lands to visit, which stories to pursue and the order in which to confront the Sinistrals, ensuring a unique adventure with every playthrough. Romancing SaGa 3: Destinies United features both classic, original orchestration by legendary composer Kenji Ito, alongside newly arranged versions created for this remake under his supervision. The title also features fully modernized HD visuals and fully voiced event scenes in both Japanese and English.
In addition to the game’s standard edition, a Digital Deluxe Edition is available, including additional costumes, equipment, battle BGM toggling feature, formations, and items for the Business and War Mode minigames. Anyone who pre-orders this edition will get 72 hours of early access to the full game.
Players who purchase the game before February 16 will earn a Bonus Accessories Set, including “Tatyana’s Piggy Bank,” enabling the player to earn additional in-game currency, and the “How to be a Hero” by Robin primer, which increases tech points earned in battle. Players who have save data for SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven on the same system will receive Leon’s Crown in Romancing SaGa 3: Destinies United.
Developed and published by Square Enix, Romancing SaGa 3: Destinies United will be released for PC via Steam/Xbox, PlayStation 5, Switch 2, Switch, and Xbox Series on February 4.
