While Square Enix hasn’t announced a physical release for the Legend of Mana February 2021-announced remaster outside of Japan, we’ve learned a Legend of Mana remaster physical version is coming to Asia, and it will include English-language support.
The Legend of Mana remaster physical version is coming via our friends at Playasia, and will ship when the game launches worldwide on June 24th across Windows PC (via Steam), Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4. You can find the Playasia store listings here for Switch and here for PS4 (Editor’s Note: both are affiliate links, read how affiliate links help keep our site going here).
Originally released in 1999 for the PlayStation, Legend of Mana takes place in the world of Fa’Diel. The Mana Tree had burned down nine centuries ago; and war between humans, faeries, and more broke out as they sought mana. After the war, the Mana Tree regrew, and stored parts of the world in ancient artifacts.
Here’s a brief rundown on the game:
Players will be able to set off on a mystical journey in Legend of Mana, set to launch on June 24. Stepping into the shoes of the protagonist, players will embark on a journey to find the mystical Mana Tree seen in a dream, only to discover that the world map is empty. Throughout their adventure, they will acquire special artifacts, which can be placed on the map to bring towns and dungeons to life via the Land Creation system. Players can progress through the story in different ways based on the choices they make, offering a more personal and unique gameplay experience.
Legend of Mana will come with remastered visuals, a rearranged soundtrack, and the “Ring Ring Land” mini-game which will be available to the West for the first time. During their travels, they’ll encounter a colorful cast of characters, square off against fearsome monsters in real-time combat and explore the vast world of Fa’Diel, all while experiencing Legend of Mana’s timeless story.
Legend of Mana (2021) launches June 24th for Windows PC (via Steam), Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4.
