Suikoden I&II Remaster Overview
Suikoden 1 & 2 HD Remaster is the long-awaited return of the legendary RPG franchise Suikoden. It is an HD remaster compilation containing the first two games of the series being ported over to modern consoles. It is set to be released for the PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch on March 6, 2025. It was initially slated to be released in 2023, but was delayed to further improve its quality.
Suikoden I centers around the son of the esteemed Great General of the Scarlet Moon Empire. The son, along with his friends Ted, Cleo, Pahn, and Gremio, all set out to serve in the Imperial Army. Through a series of events, the friends are all separated, each taking sides with and against the empire, with Ted stumbling onto the possession of the Rune of Life and Death. As one of the sought-out True Runes out of 27, he was hunted and killed by the empire. Before Ted passed, he imbued the True Rune onto the Hero, marking him as the bearer. The protagonist now flees the Empire and ends up becoming the leader of a rebellion, where they must strike down their four generals–his father included.
Suikoden II is set three years after the events of the first game, where it concerns two childhood friends in the youth brigade of the Highland army. Through their adventures, they each obtain both halves of the Rune of the Beginning, forcing the two friends to a destiny where they must fight each other in the future for the other half. They must now navigate the waters of their supposed future battle as they continue their friendship and army tour, as the evil and maniacal Luca Blight of the Highland seeks revenge for his mother against the City-States of Jowston.
