Square offered a first look at Romancing Saga 3, a continuation of a fan-favorite JRPG series. It is the first numbered Romancing Saga to release since 1993's Romancing Saga 2, released on the Super Famicom. Like that old-school title, Romancing Saga 3 retains the 16-bit sprites, offering a nostalgic aesthetic. In addition to turn-based battles, Square is touting that player decisions will affect the outcome of the adventure.

That's not all. There's a second Saga game coming soon called Saga Scarlet Grace Ambitions, one that takes the series into 3D.

Romancing Saga 3 is coming soon to PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation Vita (!), iOS, and Android. Saga Scarlet Grace Ambitions is coming soon to PC, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
