Tactics Ogre: Reborn Rated In Austrialia, Still No Official Word From Square Enix

The latest in a multitude of leaks and listings.

2 Comments

Once again, information about Tactics Ogre: Reborn has surfaced, this time via the Australian ratings board. Square Enix has still not officially released any information about the tactical RPG's re-release.

Tactics Ogre: Reborn has been rated M, meaning moderate in this case, for mature themes and violence. The listing says that the game was classified on April 22, 2022 and the the game is multiplatform, though it does not specify which platforms.

This is the latest in a long line of small leaks, starting with Square Enix trademarking Tactics Ogre: Reborn in March 2022. Then PlayStation Store briefly listed the game, before taking the link down. Then leaked backend files revealed that the game is a port of the 2011 PSP version of Tactics Ogre. According to that leak, this version would revamp the class system, add auto-save, make battles faster, as well as allow control and UI remapping.

Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together is the second game in the Battle Ogre series. It's comparable to Final Fantasy Tactics, as the player controls small armies of individual warriors on a grid-based battlefield. Originally released on the Super Famicom, Tactics Ogre first saw a North American release when it was ported to PlayStation in 1997. It was then ported to the PSP in 2011. That was the last time any Tactics Ogre, or Ogre Battle game for that matter, was released.

Gaming's newest worst kept secret. "Speeding up battles" would be impressive and pave the way for making a modern Final Fantasy Tactics port much more playable. I'm excited to play this. My biggest exposure to Tactics Ogre was Knights of Lodis on the Game Boy Advance which I only got because of how big a fan little me was of FFT.

@Ikzai: Huge fan of FFT also.

I am glad to see this Renaissance of tactical rpg gaming. I think a strong, fast and intuitive UI is just as important then (turbo speed numbers to combat). Getting around the map, going from character to character and .... omg, navigating the menus so that we tactics fans, can enjoy stat porn- faster and easier. Shaving off secs and minutes here and there can be just as enjoyable then Benny hill, troops running around during combat.

Also a great story like tactics ogre sure doesn't hurt anything either for sure.
