In the 90s, there was a JRPG series that became a big hit for PlayStation players and that series was the Lunar series. During the State of Play Presentation, the developers of the game announced the Lunar Remastered Collection which is a compilation of two legendary JRPGs; Silver Star Story Complete and Lunar 2: Eternal Blue Complete.
The Lunar series tells a classic tale of a young adventurer with a fluffy sidekick, who falls in love with a girl who may or may not be immortal. What begins as a light-hearted quest quickly takes a dark turn with the rise of an evil villain, subsequently placing the fate of the entire world in the hero’s hands.
This timeless story, filled with dragons, swords, and treasures, is brought to life by an unforgettable cast of characters—from a young priestess who acts the perfect heiress at home but has a fiery temper, to a tragic villain who nevertheless has a flair for the dramatic. The games’ straightforward and effortless storytelling, combined with thoughtful character development, gives Lunar its unique charm and enduring appeal.
