    This could be one of the best remakes I've played. They did a beautiful job of remaking the environments and music. The gameplay was given some nice quality of life enhancements as well, including fast travel and assault actions. This is for sure the definitive way to experience Star Ocean 2.

    Took a classic and turned into even better game. The graphic is very unique with HD graphic on the background and still have the pixelated characters. They made changes to the gameplay to be better and easier to maintain. Well worth $50.

    Graphics are a mix of the old sprites with new 3d environments that look amazing. I played the original game (still own it) and the game still holds up today. Get this game.

    This game is amazing. It gives that late 90s jrpg feeling we don't get that much anymore but updated in a way that makes it feel modern. It's looks amazing and plays great. Highly recommended.

    It looks really good and runs smoothly! I would recommend playing with Japanese voices instead of English, but to each their own.

    This game made me change my mind about the Star Ocean series, which I always thought was pretty mediocre, but Star Ocean 2 really is one of the best JRPGs ever made.
