Langrisser I & II

Released: 3/10/2020

Langrisser I: Follow the story of Ledin, a young prince whose home was invaded by the Dalsis Empire seeking to conquer the land. He'll have to confront his rival Lance and the Kaiser to reclaim his homeland and the Sacred Sword Langrisser. However, both sides will be observed closely by the watchful eyes of the darkness. The fate of Langrisser, Baldea, and the entire continent of El Sallia will be determined by the choices you make. Langrisser II: Elwin is a wanderer who finds himself caught in between the Descendants of Light, the army of darkness, and the Rayguard Empire in a battle for the Sacred Sword Langrisser and the Cursed Sword Alhazard. Which side will you join? Which will you deem worthy of the legendary swords, and consequently, the right to rule El Sallia itself? Both Langrisser I & II have returned with their classic stories of good and evil, complete with beautiful high-definition visuals, reorchestrated music, and quality-of-life improvements to the classic gameplay that made these strategy RPGs truly LEGENDARY. KEY FEATURES: A Blade Honed to Perfection - Experience two classic titles with new visuals, music, localization, and a new character with new story choices. Legendary Legions - Expanded character options across two games allow you to command 33 playable characters and customize them with 50 unique classes. Forge Your Path - Your greatest weapon is choice. Your decisions result in any one of 22 story endings and 560 character outcomes across both titles.
