Lunar Remastered Collection Release Date Announced

The highly anticipated Lunar Remastered Collection is set to launch on April 18th, 2024, for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC, with backward compatibility for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Game Arts and GungHo Online Entertainment are bringing the first two Lunar games to modern consoles and PC via Steam.

This remastered duology boasts updated visuals, a re-recorded soundtrack, and numerous quality-of-life improvements. Features include fully voiced dialogue in English and Japanese, with added French and German subtitles, a classic mode to recapture the original aesthetic, and enhanced gameplay mechanics such as faster combat and auto-battle options. These additions, now commonplace in JRPG remasters (similar to Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake and the upcoming Suikoden 1 & 2 HD Remaster), aim to modernize the experience while preserving the nostalgic charm. The collection also includes widescreen support, enhanced pixel art, and high-definition cutscenes.

Initially announced during a 2024 Sony State of Play, the Lunar Remastered Collection surprised and delighted many long-time fans of the series, which debuted in 1992 with Lunar: The Silver Star for the Sega CD. The success of this collection remains to be seen, but the developers' previous collaboration on the Grandia HD Collection suggests a positive outlook. Physical copies will be available in select North American and European retailers.

Key Features:

  • Release Date: April 18th, 2024
  • Platforms: PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC (Steam), with PS5 and Xbox Series X/S compatibility.
  • Content: Remastered versions of Lunar: The Silver Star and Lunar: Eternal Blue.
  • Improvements: Updated graphics, re-recorded soundtrack, fully voiced dialogue (English & Japanese), French & German subtitles, classic mode, faster combat, auto-battle.
