Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven is on sale for its best price yet for PS5 and Nintendo Switch. Over at Amazon and Walmart, you can snag a physical copy for only $40 (was $50) for a limited time. The PS5 edition was on sale for roughly $42 during Black Friday, but this is the first time the Switch version has received a meaningful discount.

Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven for PS5

$40 (was $50)

Romancing SaGa 2 is a ground-up remake of the 1993 Super Famicom classic. An HD port of the original was also released in 2017, but this new remake updates the experience to full 3D graphics and overhauls the turn-based battle system to match the new "timeline" system featured in recent titles like SaGa Emerald Beyond. There are also a few quality of life updates to make the game more approachable for new players, including multiple difficulty options.

The SaGa Franchise

Square Enix has been slowly revitalizing the SaGa series over the past few years with remasters, remakes, and brand-new entries in the series, including SaGa Emerald Beyond, a brand-new standalone entry in the series that released in April. Steam keys for SaGa Emerald Beyond, and a bunch of other SaGa games are available at Green Man Gaming. With promo code DEC15, you can save 15% on any of the games listed below. The discount code works on Romancing SaGa 2's remake, but it doesn't stack with the XP deal. So you can either get it for $40 with the XP deal or $42.50 without the membership discount.

SaGa Game Deals on PC (Steam keys)

Save 15% with promo code DEC15

• Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven -- $40 ($50) | XP deal
• SaGa Emerald Beyond -- $50
• SaGa Scarlet Grace: Ambitions -- $30
• Romancing SaGa: Minstrel's Song Remastered -- $25
• Romancing SaGa 2 -- $25
• Romancing SaGa 3 -- $29
• SaGa Frontier Remastered -- $25
• Collection of SaGa: Final Fantasy Legend -- $20

While the series started as a Final Fantasy spin-off called Final Fantasy Legend, the SaGa series quickly evolved into its own unique franchise. Unlike many other JRPGs of the 90s, the SaGa games are notable for offering non-linear storylines and complex character building systems that were more akin to 90s computer RPGs.

Romancing SaGa 2 sees players take the role of various members of a royal family as they fight to maintain their empire, and stave off world-ending threats. There's also an entire castle building mechanics where you construct and manage fortresses around your kingdom. Like other games in the series, where you go, who you talk to, and which side quests you complete can have drastic changes on how the story unfolds. It's a surprisingly open-ended experience, even by modern standards, and this new remake is the perfect opportunity to give it a go, or revisit it and try for an entirely different story path.

Romancing SaGa: Minstrel Song Remastered International

$45

SaGa fans can also preorder the upcoming physical edition of Romancing SaGa: Minstrel Song Remastered International for PS5 and Nintendo Switch. This superb remaster originally released in 2022 on PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile.

Like Romancing SaGa 2, the boxed version of Minstrel Song Remastered is only available on PS5 and Nintendo Switch. It'll be available early next year, though Square Enix hasn't set an exact release date.
