Game Arts’ Lunar games still stand in my top ten list of favorite games of all time. I adore both Lunar and Lunar 2, and play them whenever I get the downtime to enjoy them. Both Sega CD and PlayStation versions. I like to mix it up. And now I’ll be able to mix it up even more with a new version of the first game, coming soon to the PSP.
LUNAR: Harmony of Silver Star is a Game Arts developed full remake of the 1992 title, complete with reworked graphics and game play interface. It ws revealed in this week’s Famitsu that this new game will sport an isometric view and hand drawn characters.1UP says that publisher Gungho mentions an expanded backstory and remastered music. I hope they don’t mess with the music too much, as Noriyuki Iwadare’s score really makes the game.
This page is going to be the official webpage come Friday, so check back then to get a peek at the new game.
Are there any Lunar series fans out there? Are you looking forward to this remake?
